Fabulous photos. There’s something about black and white photos. They simply look timeless.

Very nice! Somehow the black and white puts everything on the same footing, if you pardon the pun. 😉

The “same footing” ah, how those words TRIPPED off your tongue

Thank you. How nice of you to say so.

Love them all but especially the first two… (The Templars’ Staircase and Goma). I also like the escalator, not because I like I escalators but because of the way you took the picture! 🙂

Thank you. How kind of you to say that. The Templars’ staircase is in a castle (now an arts centre) in Malta. GoMA is the Gallery of Modern Art in my home city of GLASGOW.

Bother. And I have been to Malta but never saw that staircase. Which castle is it in?

St James Cavalier in Castille Square, Valletta. . Now an arts centre. Well worth a visit if you go back. Super cafe/ bar with terrace. Exhibitions,studios., theatre and cinema. In centre of Valletta but often overlooked by visitors. We found it by mistake on our last day on our first visit to the island . I hope you get back there someday. There are some stunning renovations of the old fortified walls on way into city from bus station.

I had a look on a map of Valletta and at pictures of the exterior. Been past the building several times (we were staying in Valletta) but never went inside. Well, I suppose you can’t see everything! If we ever go back… 🙂

We initially walked past it . Then we saw people coming out.
