Keystone Crescent (3) - 28 July 2019

nobody@ipernity.com (John Oram) — Wed, 31 Jul 2019 07:04:13 +0000

Following my visit to Keystone Crescent on 26 July 2019 [qv], I returned the following Sunday to do some more practical research on the ground. I had learned that an original Caledonian Crescent sign can still be seen on the side of 48 Caledonian Road. This might well be the case but that building was obscured by scaffolding and attendant sheeting. On the opposite corner (no. 46), there is evidence of the removal of an older street sign. That was a disappointment and strikes me as an act (possibly unintentional) of cultural vandalism.

This very old (cast iron?) street sign is attached, high up, to the east face of the cottage at 178 Folkestone Road Dover, shown in the previous picture (with note). The present day road is named Elms Vale Road.

My slow-growing series 'Where Am I Now?' continues in Kingston, Ontario. Yes, this really exists. The Tragically Hip Way is a renamed part of Barrack Street. No. 1 The Tragically Hip Way, at the north east corner of this intersection, is the address of the Leon's Centre (formerly Rogers K-Rock Centre).

One of London's newest postcodes, albeit now nearly three years old, is N1C introduced for the extensive developments in the Kings Cross area.

My pictures of street signs are generally reference shots in lieu of written notes to help me to record accurately the location of a particular set of photographs. They serve, however, to record also the enormous variety of such signs. These are in Kingston, Ontario.

This is another picture which started out as a reference shot during one of my intense shoots for a group but I like it so much, especially the grain on the pole, that it is now in my occasional series 'Where Am I Now?'

Where Am I Now? (US3) - 29 January 2016

This latest shot in my occasional series is, in fact, a little more than the usual reference shot. I was following Pratt Whitney Road (sic) in Palm Beach County, Florida in the hope of seeing something interesting outside the Pratt & Whitney factory which, I had already learned, is in the area. The route I took, via Corporate Road N, took me away from the factory but brought me to Assembly Loop in the Palm Beach Park of Commerce and the most striking building, depicted in the next three pictures.

For both amusement and consistency, this shot comes from my pancake-fuelled morning walk in Palm Springs to help me to fix the location of some of my other photographs.

What started as reference shots became a bit of fun and then souvenirs of sorts. This, in Napier, was taken while I was walking to visit the cricket ground.
