What was I photographing on this day in previous years?

11 years ago it was this somewhat neglected corner of Derby…

Pics of W.E. Savage have appeared on the blog before, here and here but I don’t think I’ve published a pic of the ‘Glam Boutique’ pinup before.

What was I photographing on this day in previous years?

Nine years ago it was one of one of Hector Guimard’s iconic Art Nouveau entrances to the Paris Métro. This one stands directly opposite the main entrance of Gare du Nord at the junction of Place Napoléon III and Boulevard de Denain.
