Any suggestions for this week's photoblog? I suggest landmarks, as well as ask the experts and photos as usual.

How about:

"Cultures on my street"

http://www.street-cultures.eu/

The photo motif should capture your vision of intercultural dialogue. Go out to your neighborhood, walk through the streets of your town and catch that special moment when cultures meet.

Not on my street. I have a choice between not quite middle class, quite middle class, very middle class, and everso very middle class.

A cosmopolitan melting pot bubbling with the world's cultural finest flavours it isn't.

But I did see some pigeons in my garden today.

(Or were they doves? It's not always easy to tell.)

Only if it's six feet long and stripey.

The neighbours have a menagerie. Some timely predation could be appropriate.

some days I do think phasing the wolf out of the UK's ecosystem was a mistake.

not quite middle class, quite middle class, very middle class, and everso very middle class

Quintessential English subject matter. Though capturing the subtle contrasts with a stills camera might call for something like genius (meaning a job for you, not for me ;)).

Government-mandated feel good initiatives still creep me out. This use of the 'that' word, too. Can everyone please stop writing 'that rarest of'? It has that certain je ne sais quoi that makes my ears hurt even when it's my eyes I use for reading.

It's a good idea.  I don't know if I have more than one or two of these photos to put up and no time this week to go and get more, but if others are keen we can include that as a section.

Just shoot some blue-molded yoghurt.

Alas, I have none of that, although I could let a cup of tea stand for a few days.
