A Hard Rain A-Gonna Fall

It's hard to believe given the last two days of torrential rain that this was taken at Bournemouth beach on Saturday.

Sunny Morning at Fairlop Waters

While cycling around the lake I spotted this sailing instructor getting dinghies ready for a training session.

Gone to the dogs

View from the Thames Path between Canary Wharf and Island Gardens.

An Hour in Greenwich

The geometric shapes of the wine rack and mirror caught my eye as I walked through Greenwich Village.

Just opposite is St Alfege, the Anglican parish church.  It is dedicated to Alfege, The Archbishop of Canterbury, who was martyred on this site in 1012.  The present church is nearly 300 years old.  It was designed by Nicholas Hawksmoor and is one of the churches built under the Fifty Churches act of 1711.

I like the contrast of old and new that this view of Canary Wharf affords.

Blow away dandelion

Blooming marvellous trip to Kenwood

The Rhododendrons and Azaleas were out in-force today at the gardens next to Kenwood House in Hampstead.   The bees were busy collecting pollen but I was unable to get a sharp photo of any of them on a flower.

Spring daisies

It was time to cut the lawn but I hate decapitating the daisies………..at least I got a photo of them before the mower got them.
