Happy New Year


On walking across Hampstead Heath my eye was caught by the frost glistening on the fallen leaves.  
Here's to a good New Year…...

Happy Hanukah….


Sufganiyot (Doughnuts) will be eaten by the score during the 8 days of Hanukah.  I'll be on the lookout for those infused with creme patisserie instead of jam. Delicious!!!

On Sunday,  at the Olympic Velodrome in Stratford, the 2014 UCI World Track Cycling championship was in full swing.  We are lucky to have such a great venue on our doorstep.

Early Evening Rush Hour - A406


Although on a shopping trip to Waitrose at South Woodford, I had taken my camera with me.  Took this long exposure photo at dusk from the bridge over the A406 when the evening rush hour was just underway.  

Couldn't resist taking a 'light picture' abstract photo (see below) from the same point.

Also, brought back memories from my youth of when this was known as Gates Corner.

Autumn leaves………and house eaves


I like how the eaves of Wanstead House are reflected in the puddle which is in turn framed by the autumn leaves.  Had to take the photo……...

Over The Top…..Armistice Day



This art installation was originally a part of the Wanstead Art Trail.  It has been on display in the front garden of the artist in Redbridge Lane West.  I decided to visit it today - on Armistice Day.

Rainy Monday


I enjoyed every minute of the warm summer.  I guess we need the rain but it sure deflates the mood.
