Maltese balconies – a photo blog of these architectural wonders

Maltese balconies – a photo blog of these architectural wonders

Since the first day I stepped foot in Malta, I have developed a Maltese balcony obsession. Malta’s balconies, otherwise known as the gallarija, are traditional elements of the country’s architecture. They became popular in the late 17th century, with the first balconies featuring at Valletta’s Grand Master’s Palace, which then set off this spectacular trend. I have been in complete awe of them, including their colours and structures, and how they feature on buildings all over the country. Interestingly, the colour of the balcony is matched to the door of that particular building. It is only right that I dedicate an entire blog post to photos of these architectural wonders…

The excitement of flying again – a photo blog

The excitement of flying again – a photo blog

Last week, I went on my first flights since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. It was the best feeling to be back on a plane after 17 months! I flew with British Airways for my trip to Edinburgh, out of London City Airport, and then returning back into London Heathrow Airport.

This was my first time flying from City Airport and the unique route out of London definitely makes for some great shots of the O2 arena and the city! At the end of my trip, the sunshine and blue skies on arrival into my favourite airport, Heathrow, presented me with an amazing view of Windsor Castle. I have missed flying so much, as I am sure you have too, and so this blog post is dedicated to the photos from both flights! Enjoy…
