Mandolin Perspective

I'd also been taking pictures for future stencils but I really can't have a camera in my hand without using angles

Violin

originally part of a series to see if a photo concept could be reality with my lens options

Distortions

Sailing Away

On the Streets

this building just screams massive

 very nice clock mechanism

Sutton House

 Linenfold paneling and the painted 'temporary' linenfold paintings underneath

 Tudor wall painting-still there!

 lovely 16th century fireplace

 small parlor

 great chamber's fireplace

 by far my favorite bit of this house was the hinged wall paneling that you could pull to expose the Tudor brickwork and arches

 Victorian staircase and Tudor timbering

 burn marks on a 16th century lintel from candles!

 "mysterious figure" carved above a fireplace believed to be holding a grid iron (used to cook meat and as an instrument of torture) Perhaps a good luck charm to ward off the devil who tried to come into houses through unlit chimneys.

 most awesome embroidered gloves

Tudor kitchen (original fireplace mantel)

St Augustine Tower

 this must've been in a church

 this is the tower of St Augustine built at the end of the 13th century (rest of the church demolished 1797)

 It's a Grade I listed building which makes it the creme of the crop in terms of historic buildings-luckily I happened to be in Hackney on Sunday when it was open for free

 another tomb I bet was once inside

 very old timber

 the workings of a still working 16th century clock

 spiral staircase

view from the top!

Hackney

 in the Georgian neighborhood

 Empire Theatre

the library 10,000 leagues under the sea

18th century figures

probably a Wren church constructed in 1666 to fill needs following the Great Fire-modified for a school (hence the scholar figures) and then after WWs into officess. These figures were packed away to preserve them

Walthamstow Market

jellied hot eels sold here!

Petrie Museum at UCL

 prize if you can tune it

 old style cabinet cases crammed full of Egyptian antiquities of all kinds

 Inscribed Neolithic bowl

boat models

Savoy Tailors Guild

Temple Bar area

 squirrels squirrels!
