Extraordinarily beautiful Noravank Monastery in southern Armenia, not far from Ajerbijan. The sound of bees and birds fills the air. Here for a few moments of peace in a land frightened by war.

Bumped into a dragon and quite a few St. Georges in #Chester today #StGeorgesDay

Apparently there used to be Leg XX- and wild boar-stamped tiles at the Prestatyn Roman baths that I visited yesterday with Helsbels but we couldn't see any survivors. Lovely that the foundations have survived but it's a sad story of previous neglect chesterwalls.info/baths2.html

The IDF killed 18 children today. Must get those marches expressing outrage about it banned though.

The silk designs of James Leman. A little bit psychedelic, a little bit graphicsy, and in such fresh colours they might date from the 1930s or 60s. In fact they are the world's oldest surviving set of silk designs, found in his Album c.1705-10, created when he was aged 17-22.

A narrow street at the Bronze Age Minoan site of Gournia, Crete. Although the settlement dates to about 1550-1450 BCE, evidence from pottery finds have established that people had settled around the area as far back as 3000 BCE during the Neolithic period. 📷 My own.
