Just love this depiction of a whale on the choir stalls at Exeter Cathedral - the line, movement and form.

Every raccoon is either planning a heist or in the middle of a heist.

With all eyes on Westminster, I thought I'd offer you a view of London in June 1841 before the Houses of Parliament were even built. I've cleaned-up this old salt print photograph taken 183 years ago by William Fox Talbot, from the window of his flat in Cecil Street. The original
