…though only (unfortunately) for one weekend. Just had a great weekend staying in the Kasteel Westhove in Zeeland, Netherlands – it is a hostel that has room for more than 100 people – we met with most of the family – great to catch up with those I have not seen for far too long…and…
A long exposure photograph of the Thames towards the Thames Barrier (visible just below the horizon) – Woolwich in the distance on the far side of the river, and Charlton on this side – taken on a lunchtime walk last Friday, starting from Greenwich North and joining the Thames Path on the east side…
I discovered this Koi artwork yesterday during a lunchtime walk to Trinity Buoy Wharf, walking along Orchard Place, just off the Thames Path (NE extension) – the artwork is suspended in a small gap between two warehouses – while I have run down here on quite a few occasions, I had not noticed this…
This photograph was taken was taken from the Thames Path at East India Dock Basin – the dock is now a nature reserve, though the lock gates were renovated and are still in place maintaining the water level in the reserve. This picture of the River Thames looking downstream – the Millennium Dome/O2 Arena…
This photograph was taken from the jetty at Morden Wharf on the Thames Path between North Greenwich and Cutty Sark – this was a lunchtime walk which turned out to take a little longer than I had planned…there were so many interesting things to stop and take pictures of – I could have taken all afternoon…and…
Also discovered in Green Park, a short distance to the north-east of Buckingham Palace, we came across the Canadian War Memorial – extremely poignant as in Canada, Monday was Memorial Day. The centre line of the memorial lines up with Halifax, Nova Scotia, the port through which most Canadian military personal would have passed on their…
This little fella came up to within 1m of me in the middle of Green Park last Friday evening – I’ve seen them climb people in Regents Park to get crisps…and I don’t doubt that he’d have done the same if I had had some food with me! As it was I didn’t, but…
This picture was taken on another lunchtime excursion – this time to North Greenwich (one stop on the Jubilee line) and, with the Millenium Dome behind me, looking back at Canary Wharf (and yet another Thames Clipper…they get everywhere!)…I love this shot, but it could be better – because it was taken resting on…
This photograph was taken one lunch time a week or so back, looking across the Thames from the Isle of Dogs towards the Millenium Dome/O2 Arena at North Greenwich – it’s a short way from the office at Canary Wharf – I have been running down the Thames Path here for a few weeks…
This is a photograph of the the River Windrush taken at Minster Lovell in Oxfordshire – a mostly bright day, with clouds for extra interest! While not a waterfall (I don’t know of any nearby), the river is quite turbulent, so lends itself to a long exposure as I did here – I took several…
