I’ve been elbow deep in wrapping paper and have just come up for air…
…to have a look for some paper-filled photos from my travels, starting off with this fabulous newsagents at First and Pike in Seattle’s Pike Place Market.
Out in West Seattle there’s a whole series of murals worth checking out, including this one depicting the frenzy of press day at the West Seattle Herald of yore.
The well-worn pages of a book that accompanied me on my first road trip across America.
A paper dress provides an interesting canvas for budding artists at New York‘s Figment Festival.
The menu in the dining car of the Lake Shore Limited – a throwback to another era – and a welcome respite from a traumatic travel experience.
