This image captures the intricate web of train movements at Manchester Piccadilly, illustrating the organized chaos that underpins urban transport networks. The digital representation of interconnected routes and live timing reflects the dynamic flow of city life and travel.

A digital screen displays a complex diagram of train tracks and stations around Manchester Piccadilly. The left side has a network of lines representing rail routes, with names like Mayfield Loop and Longsight Depot. On the right, a timetable shows arrivals and departures with corresponding times and platform numbers. The bottom corner shows a clock reading 09:09:51.

This photo captures the momentary stillness in the bustling environment of Piccadilly Station. The title 'while you wait' suggests a pause in the constant motion of urban life, portraying travelers in transit amid the structured chaos of a transport hub in Manchester

The image shows an indoor railway station with a high ceiling. People are walking or seated, some with luggage. Bright signage and advertisements hang from above. The floor is shiny and dark, while natural light enters through large windows at the far end

Piccadilly Circus has to be the most famous road intersections in the world. It’s iconic for several reasons – the unique architecture surrounding it, the iconic advertisements that adorn the buildings and the statue of Eros in the middle. It’s a place that’s known all over the world!

Piccadilly Circus is a road junction and public space of London's West End in the City of Westminster. It was built in 1819 to connect Regent Street with Piccadilly. In this context, a circus, from the Latin word meaning "circle", is a round open space at a street junction which is the iconic centre of London for many people these days.

Two photo booths, their simple, utilitarian design stands out, evoking nostalgia. Taken in Manchester's Piccadilly, the image focuses on the empty booths, one softly lit, awaiting the next person. The scene, with its emphasis on functionality and design, offers a quiet moment of reflection in the everyday hustle.

This black-and-white photograph captures a pair of side-by-side photo booths located in a public place. The booths are labeled for "Passport & ID Photos." The interior of the booths is mostly white with a small stool in each, waiting for someone to sit down and take their picture. Above the booths, there are advertisements showcasing examples of the types of photos that can be taken inside, such as ID photos, passport photos, and fun portraits. The booths are clean, with the light inside one of them giving off a slightly inviting glow. The surrounding area is empty, focusing all attention on the photo booths themselves, evoking a sense of nostalgia.

Went to the Royal Academy last week to see ‘In the Eye of the Storm’: Modernism in Ukraine, 1900-1930s. A jewel like show…

“Oleksandr Bohomazov’s Sharpening the Saws, from 1927, hangs in pole position in the final gallery: a wild vision of labourers tending to their perfectly geometric tools, long planes of violet, green and crimson, lying among tree trunks and walls like the musical instruments in some celestial Quattrocento vision of paradise.”

The paintings in the Royal Academy’s startling new show are political refugees. They were loaded on to lorries to be driven out of Kyiv in the autumn of 2022. A Tuesday was chosen, as the Russians generally bombed the city on Mondays, but no sooner had they reached the Polish border than a rogue missile exploded on the other side. It took prolonged Ukrainian diplomacy to persuade the border guards to flag them through. To stand in front of these wildly dynamic paintings, so filled with the spirit of freedom, is to sense both past and present danger. Some of these paintings were confiscated or hidden from Soviet censors; some of these artists fled Ukraine to escape Stalin’s purges, while others did not make it.

From my 16 year old son, Dylan:

I sit
Contemplating.
My mind wanders. Then, I
Glance at the station wall. The sign
Tells me

"Your train is near!".
I run through machines,
Scanning tickets. I

Launch up the platform,
Along the travelator
To the waiting room.

I go
To the platform.
A departing #Northern
Train leaves, going and making room
For mine!

A blue and white Northern train leaves Piccadilly station on a warm day. It is on the furthest track
