Well, I lied. Rather than moving on with either the nature shots or the studio portraits, I dug this piece out of my archives for submission. Quite why is beyond me at this present juncture, but I'm sure there's some sound reasoning in there somewhere.

Anyway, this was taken back in December when I took a few days away in York to escape Christmas at home. Good times were had, and this was taken on Christmas Day itself when the city centre was pretty-much deserted.

Chasing pigeons is more fun than you'd first think.

As for the title, it could be considered from the Radiohead track of the same name but it's mostly just the silly string of words that came up in my head when viewing this piece before processing. Check the track out anyway, it's a good'un.
