v is for unicorn

v is for unicorn

Back before the old king died, this used to be the back side and car park of the Unicorn Hotel in Bristol. I think it's been through quite a few iterations since then - as has harbour in the centre of Bristol!
There's something Orwellian and 1984 about the Vs that compelled me to photograph them.

View large on black for added v-ness.

"Mercifully, the whole thing is starting to fade, to become an episode. When I do still catch the odd glimpse, it's peripheral; mere fragments of mad-doctor chrome, confining themselves to the corner of the eye. There was that flying-wing liner over San Francisco last week ...". Extract from William Gibson's Gernsback Continuum 1981, a short story in his Burning Chrome anthology.

La Défense, Paris.

Well worth a peek on black!

Looking for that non-cliche image of La Grande Arche de la Défense, Paris, France.
Processed using PS5.1 and Nik Silver Efex. This is PS stitch-up of two 10mm shots, hence the rather strange perspective.
