Looks good. Can anyone tell me where is Lincoln Place is?

humberklog

It's the street that links Nassau St. and Fenian St.

Lincoln Arms Pub? Trinity Dental college? Taj Mahal? All on it.

Larry Gogan's 'Just a Minute Quiz' about 20 years ago....

Larry: Where is the Taj Mahal?

Contestant: Opposite the Dental Hospital

I heard this live so it's not a myth in case you heard it before.

humberklog

Yep it's real alright. Funny too. Think the Taj is long gone...Cafe5 now...or some such.

Rain stopped play for me today so gonna pop along tomorrow.

This exhibition more than deserves the bump.

Got there today (This one, Pete 4130's one and Chris Killip's in GoP all in one day?!) and this exhibition is astounding, imformative, educational, inspiring and utterly gobsmackingly beautiful.
It is one of the finest guest exhibitions of any artistic medium I have seen in recent years.
This exhibition transcends photography as an exploration, moves beyond photography as a medium of record and strikes at the heart of (and resides in)how photography can stir ones soul.

Stunning.

I couldn't agree more ...
