At Bishop Wordworth’s School in Salisbury, Wiltshire, England. The slight distortion in the image was introduced deliberately by me. I wonder if today's youngsters still read 'The Lord of the Flies'. It was very popular amongst mid teenagers in my day. Bishop Wordsworth's School is a Church of England boys' grammar school in Salisbury, Wiltshire for boys aged 11 to 18. The school is regularly amongst the top-performing schools in England, and in 2010 was the school with the best results in the English Baccalaureate.

What about third time lucky? The words on the sign: No Trespassing. Violators will be shot. Survivors will be shot again. Someone has a grim sense of humour!

Naxos town on the island of Naxos. In the SOOC version the welcome sign looked as if it had been posterized. I took that as my cue and abused the image in other ways during processing.

Ebenezer Methodist Church, St Peter Port, Guernsey. After more than 20 years of disuse, the building is being converted into living accommodation. There were so many cars parked in front of the church it was difficult to frame this picture.
