Gradually graduating


It's graduation fortnight in this ivy-walled enclosed courtyard at the University of Manchester. I think it is safe to say that, judging by what they are wearing, only two out of three of these young men have graduated today. Meanwhile behind them, two other (unseen) female students are tossing their mortar boards into the air in time honoured tradition.

  1. A great day for these young people. Like Manchester here in Leeds the University has ceremonies over the next couple of weeks. I have 10 pictures of mine in the current Leeds Uni alumni magazine, sent out to 170,000 graduates of the university. This due to the alumni office seeing my Leeds daily photo. Paul

  4. Takes me back to my graduation photos from 1991 - when I had big hair and NASA control glasses. Not a good look..
