St. Helier by night at Christmas

King Street







By De Gruchy








Jewellers at New Cut









.. and back down King Street...







.. and another corner of that junction.









Through New Cut to Broad Street...








.. and the old taxi rank now paved over.








.. from Conway Street.




Down at the Weighbridge the Museum arch is lit blue, and the cross beyond can be seen at the signal station up at Fort Regent.










Looking through the railings into the museum courtyard...






.. behind us here, the museum looks out onto the newly paved over Weighbridge area...






.. with under-lit stone benches and a nicely decorated tree in the general direction of Liberation Square.





More to come... if anyone wants them..... just say the word :)

Town Church

The Town Church, St. Helier.








From the back, looking towards the altar...








By the pulpit...








.. the window.








View from the pulpit area (where Major Peirson's resting place is).

To the left, in the southern arm/transept...






A backlit blue glass artwork, "Blue Madonna"...







In 2002 John Robinson took a rubber mould from a marble copy of the unfinished "Pitti Tondo" by Michelangelo... see here for more details.








Quick plea : I'm compiling a list of most recently updated Jersey photos and videos (on the right here, you may have noticed). If anyone can help me add to the list, please drop the link into a comment here, thanks.
Only sites with RSS feeds though, please.

Fete de Noue Christmas Battle Floats Parade

Here are some frame-grabs from the crapaudvision video (note how much clearer these stills are compared to what I can achieve with the moving footage!).

Views from Pier Road

There's plenty to see from here.






The new 'boutique hotel' above the bus station...









.. from a better angle.









Left a bit, West Park.








I think I must be just about coming to the end of unpublished pics of the Eye!







The upturned boat cafe...








.. and St. Andrew's through the edge of the eye.








The Needle...








.. closer.







St. Aubin's harbour over the bay...







.. and to the left, the fort.

Still waters

Friday the 28th, it was so calm I took a quick snap of the new blue crane on the New North, seeing as the reflections were so good.

This is a one or two second exposure, a little lighter than how it looked to the naked eye, with the pic heavily processed by 'messing around with the curves' (brightening it from the original).



This pic was a 20 seconds exposure, F2.8, ISO100.
Many light areas are 'burnt out' but it's really brought up the darker regions and shows just how calm the water was to produce such clear reflections over 20 secs!
