This is one of my favourite walks: taking in a stretch of the Norfolk Coast Path from Old Hunstanton to Thornham. Lunch at the Lifeboat Inn, Thornham; Coastliner bus back to the car at the end.
Some photos from the summit and then descent from Ben Nevis yesterday:
First time I haven’t seen any snow on it, which is worrying if it’s a climate indicator. Was the first time I’ve ever had any visibility from the top though, normally it’s so cloudy and snowy I can’t see more than 50ft in any direction. My legs are sore.

From my walk in the Lakes on Friday, Crinkle Crags, Bow Fell and Esk Pike. I would have taken more pics but I left my camera in the hotel and my phone died about 2 hours into the walk!
My legs are still sore two days later!

that first picture is incredible, holy shit
Was early for a meeting so took a brief stroll round King’s Lynn whilst listening to Low. It’s a nice evening.

Gorgeous!
Great bunch of patos there. Hope you’ve been feeding them lots of pan.

I walk past a lot of these city centre places almost every day. Never saw them in the way I do your photos.
I think you have to have an eye for these things, as well as not being so zombiefied and switched off to everything around you when walking to work or whatever. Probably part of the reason I’ve never taken a decent photo in my life.

Ngl, Kings Lynn looks considerably nicer than I assumed it would for some reason.
Oh don’t get me wrong: some of it is a textbook lesson in crap town planning, and some of it has just been neglected for decades. But the area round by the south quay and the Minster is gorgeous.
the milk machine is the best bit.

It certainly looks it from your photos. Nice pictures

It’s sort of my job to look at it all like that though, it definitely helps you discover the city if you’re taking photos all the time too, even if they’re no good. It gives your walk a bit more purpose. These were to help me write an essay about buddleia and decay

Going to snap my walk home
Sick of the same straight road home so did a detour then realised it would bypass nursery and I’d be late so went back to the usual route. So this is a walk home, but not an advisable route, and plagued by cranes, hoardings, and traffic cones.
Town Hall
Hidden Gem church
John Rylands library
Love streets with two names
Monsters in horrifically bland Spinningfields
William Masrden, sort of inventor of the weekend, buried here but the inscription is behind the branches
Around Camp Street, where I sat next to Keith Floyd once.
Through an open door
Old school or something. Dead cute.
Only pub named after a potato
Some distant bridge porn
Shit stairs, cool repeating arches
Multiple bridge porn
You know the drill
Castlefield
Massive towers cloning
Look at that massive skinny door
Apartments/church. There’s a cool old motorcycle factory next to it that has the original signage but hasn’t showed in the photo
Love this old place, plumbing supplies company on a road of otherwise newish high rises
Some weird gnomey dudes who appeared today

A part of the commute I love is The Brunswick Centre in Bloomsbury - 70s brutalist dystopian realness. I love it, but everyone else tells me it’s horrible. It’s a strange thing to describe; tiered flats on the outside and in, with these huge ventilation towers, blocky walkways, and a shopping arcade in the centre.
Last night after work I mooched about at the Curzon and then took some pics when it was night. The start of these is in the centre and then I’ve gone round the outside of it.

Finally, someone with a refined architectural palette (likes big blocky things)
