Notes From the Road


Photo Stories #3: The Venetian

Alex Metcalfe July 19, 2017

Bob Dylan wrote: "the times they are a changing." No where could this be more apparent than Venice, whose streets resound to the tramp of over 20 million pairs of tourist feet a year.

I saw an old Venetian man surveying the crowds of a busy public square during the scrum of lunch hour. What do you think his expression says?

Photo Stories #1: On the Streets of Singapore

Alex Metcalfe July 12, 2017

Many think of Singapore as a quick long haul stop over. But the city is a diverse mix of Malay, Chinese, Indian and Arab people, all offering their own fantastic takes on traditional food. Well worth a visit for a couple of days. 

I took a stroll one morning in The Arab Quarter, as the muezzin cried softly through the streets, rubbing shoulders with veiled strangers who glanced mysteriously from kohl rimmed eyes.
