Time for something a little different.

Before I moved to Cumbria, I lived in Preston for many happy years. It is a forward-facing, youthful, vibrant, and exciting little city. These murals, which you can do a circuit of, are a reflection of these characteristics.

All images taken with my Google Pixel, too. See more here -> https://www.iancylkowski.com/blog/2025/2/16/preston-lancashire-winter

The image features Preston bus station, characterised by its modern architecture. The building has a prominent, expansive overhang supported by tall columns, creating a sheltered area for pedestrians below. The façade is sleek and features large glass windows, allowing natural light to illuminate the interior. In the foreground, a smooth, paved area is visible, with a few people walking and some bicycle racks. The sky above is partly cloudy, adding a dynamic element to the scene, while a multi-storey building can be seen in the background, contributing to the urban landscape.

A vibrant mural on the side of a building in Preston, depicting a woman with intricate tattoos, cradling a white lamb. The artwork is framed by the brick and stone architecture of the building, which features large windows and ornate details. In the foreground, a cobbled pathway leads towards the mural, flanked by trees that are bare, suggesting early spring or late autumn. The atmosphere is lively, with string lights visible on the terrace below the mural, and the sky above is partly cloudy, adding depth to the scene.

A striking mural on the side of a building in Preston, depicting a woman in a flowing yellow dress seated in a decorative chair. She has a calm expression and holds a glass, while a small lamb rests on her lap. The background includes various artistic elements, such as a lamp and framed images, contributing to a cosy atmosphere. The building itself is painted in darker tones, which contrasts with the vibrant yellow of the dress. In the foreground, street signs and a lamp post are visible, while the sky above is overcast, adding depth to the scene.

A vibrant mural on a building in Preston, featuring the phrase "Just Another Diamond Day" in bold, stylised lettering. The mural is adorned with intricate designs, including colourful birds perched on branches and decorative floral motifs against a backdrop of warm, rich colours. The composition captures a dynamic contrast between the lively artwork and the more utilitarian elements of the surrounding architecture, including a sloped surface and a concrete structure in the foreground. The cloudy sky above adds a moody atmosphere to the scene, enhancing the visual impact of the mural.

If you missed Prof DJ's Soul Night in Lancaster on Friday, but live in the Lune Valley, Prof DJ is doing it all again on Sunday afternoon at The Royal Barn, Kirkby Lonsdale (LA6 2AB) where Soul Sunday is always a good way to decompress....

four hours of prime soul cuts from Northern Soul to Motown, from Stax to country-infused Southern Soul, every track is lovely curated - not to be missed (but then I would say that)
