Guildford. Nothing to report.
When we moved to the UK, where we lived for 7 years, we called Farnborough home, which is about 20 minutes from Guildford.
We always thought that Guildford was a lovely town.
Talk about rose tinted glasses...
As always, your tones in B&W are outstanding. Love this image.

But you've made their graduate sing off the screen. Guildford has one use, it's where I meet my cousin for lunch!!

At least their sculpture is interesting. And your photo of it is impressive.
October 23rd, 2018  
An interesting sculpture
October 23rd, 2018  
Wonderful image!
October 23rd, 2018  
Excellent image 👍
October 23rd, 2018  
wonderful story and shot! spot on with the b&w edit
October 23rd, 2018  
This was certainly unexpected! Never been there but I always thought Guildford was very upmarket?
October 23rd, 2018  
I went there once.
You must have used the rose tinted lens for this. It looks rather special.

Love the sculpture. The lady sitting there seems more than unimpressed.

Great shot... Fav
October 24th, 2018  
Really effective shot!
October 24th, 2018  
A bit too peaceful for you, mate.

@golftragic Not to mention dignified...
@fjanos Thank you very much :)
@tonygig Thank you kindly :)
@365karly1 I thought so too...taking her surroundings for granted I guess, I'm surprised she's not staring at a phone...
@helenhall Thank you very much - it seemed fairly mundane on this trip
@fbailey We thought that as well - our impression of it this time was that it would very much like to be upmarket...
@pistache Thank you very much :)
@paul10 Thank you kindly good sir
@radiogirl Thanks very much :)
@joansmor It has that going for it...
@robz Thank you very much :)
@30pics4jackiesdiamond Thank you very much - as long as there at least one use it's not a total loss!
@lsquared Thank you very much :)
October 24th, 2018  
Yeah, that too.

@graemestevens The young lady sitting at the base of the statue wouldn't be she who you charmingly call 'The Spawn' by any chance?
October 24th, 2018  
I like it!
October 24th, 2018  
Brilliantly captured moment. Fav!

You are off the regular tourist spots, I have never been to Guildford! Sounds like you think it's gone down hill, this looks a nice shot of this sculpture!
October 24th, 2018  
@happypat We do that sometimes...this seems to be the only charming part of Guildford...and I use the term very loosely.
@awendes Thank you very much :)
@alinz Thank you kindly :)
@vignouse It wouldn't be - just a random stranger...
October 24th, 2018  
@graemestevens Oh... she does look as though she might fit in with your family though - and I bet she's wearing Doc Martens out of sight!
October 24th, 2018  
@vignouse I should probably try to rustle up current photo of Spawn...
October 24th, 2018  
@graemestevens Yes... and Mrs S too!
October 24th, 2018  
Brilliant statue - brilliant picture! :-)
October 24th, 2018  
@bankmann Thank you very much...not that I had anything to do with the statue...
October 24th, 2018  
@graemestevens
Oh, the fellow struck a pose just for you, I’ll bet. ;-p
