The Love of Power

author: Jamie : Horncastle, UK

This wall is the side of the post office along St. Lawrence Street. The brick wall has these repeating white panels which make perfect canvasses. No one makes much use of them though. It's that kind of place. W[h]en the love of power is replaced by the power of love, our world will know blessings of peace. Yeh. Like that'll ever happen. Apologies for the lo-fi photography. After losing my phone recently i've been forced to start using my trusty (now 4 years) old nokia cameraphone.

Banksy Work Painted Over by Islington Council?

author: Jamie : London, UK

This story was assembled from reports in the mainstream media. Mostly newspapers. It has since been found to be entirely factually inaccurate. Soon after Banksy’s latest work appeared on a North London street, conscientious workers from Islington Council obliterated it, by whitewashing the offending wall.

Maeve Neal and Nathan Welland, say Banksy has authenticated the work, which he completed before they drove the truck to the Glastonbury Festival in 1998. And instead of them paying him, he gave them two free festival tickets for providing the canvas. The couple, based in King’s Lynn, Norfolk, make their living supplying circus tents but now hope the sale will allow them to buy a conventional...

Bray Head

author: jamie : County Wicklow, Ireland

I've been absent from this place lately. Mostly i've been busy. Busy with work. Busy getting married. Busy being busy. After the wedding we caught a cheap flight to Dublin. Now, Dublin is a great place to visit if A. You are an Irish-American B. You have an interest in Irish History 3. You want to get drunk. lots. So, after being somewhat unimpressed with what Dublin had to offer, we headed down to Bray. A quiet seaside town. Bray was equally dull, but very pretty nonetheless. And i like how these two photos are almost paintings
