Some light distraction from the virus. These scans are from a new book of Soviet Space Graphics. I love the optimism for the future. Perhaps optimism is the best we can manage this year. #soviet #sovietspace #sovietspacegraphics #sovietspacegraphicsbook #optimism #thefuture

My normal weekends would never be spent at home, until now. I’ve managed to finally put this shelf up and revisit some prints and paintings to liven up the landing on my staircase. #ikea #ikeashelf #paintings #prints #staircase #interiorsphotography by #colinwalton at #waltoncreative

Nothing dates more than the future!
This futuristic vision is from an Italian magazine. The headline reads “Will we go around town like this?”
With Coronavirus this vision has a much more ominous future.

Den Gamle By is a beautiful collection of old buildings from different parts of Denmark brought together to make a village in the centre of Aarhus. This selection are two of the workshops in the older buildings. I love how the shafts of sunlight pick up the details. #dengamleby #aarhus #denmark #danmark #shaftsofsunlight #interiorsphotography by #colinwalton at #waltoncreative

Den Gamle By is a beautiful collection of old buildings from different parts of Denmark brought together to make a village in the centre of Aarhus. I love the 60s and 70s flats.

Radegast station used to transport Jews from the Lódz Ghetto to extermination camps. The memorial is in the form of a Tunnel of Deportation that gets smaller and darker towards the end. Both physically and metaphorically. Outside, the station building has been preserved, along with cattle trucks used for their final tragic journey. #radegast #radegastlodz #radegaststation #lodz #lodzghetto #łódź #poland #polska #holocaust #holocaustmemorial #photography by #colinwalton at #waltoncreative #muzeumstacjaradegast

75 years since the end of the genocide at Auschwit

75 years since the end of the genocide at Auschwitz. I thought I would commemorate this with the account of our visit in 2006... Everyone knows the awful nightmares of Auschwitz, but it is not until you visit to see and feel the horrors of the place, does it really sink-in quite how unthinkable it must have been.
I seriously considered writing no text at all – letting the photographs speak for themselves. But decided some annotation helps us get an inkling of what the inmates must have endured.
I felt the early, misty, blurry photographs taken on the bus journey through the forest on the outskirts was a chilling reminder of what the train passengers would have seen through the cracks of the cattle trucks, as they arrived on their final journeys.
At the station women and children were separated from the men, then stripped and shaved and ushered straight to the gas chambers. Told they were having a shower, they were then gassed en masse.
The men were separated into queues on the left or right – note the connection with Tinder. Those too sick, old or weak would go left – straight to the gas chambers. In the right hand queue would be those that looked like they could be used for slave labour, for work such as shaving and saving the hair and teeth of the victims, raiding their possessions, taking and storing thousands of pairs of glasses and shoes. The ultimate job of feeding the bodies into the furnaces went to the most trusted inmates – who knew one false move and they would be next…
This visit will stay with me forever…
