Alexandra Palace in the Snow

Kenwood House, Hampstead

Love and Affection

We seem to be seeing older people as somehow gross and disposable. A view I simply can't get on board with, and perhaps why this scene seemed so touching today, seemingly a mother and daughter, with the mother holding her daughter with one arm and leaning lightly on her stick on the other side, while quietly watching the ducks at the Kenwood Lake pond at Kenwood House, Hampstead Heath.

Leaf Carpet

Ventured to Hampstead Heath this afternoon. Never the best idea at the weekend when people are out in their thousands milling about and making the place look untidy. Nonetheless, the sun and the autumn colours were far too good to miss.

Crouch End Sunset

Incredible sunset over Crouch End this week, which I struggle to capture and do justice to. Click the images below to view bigger.

Tripod = Terrorist?

Photographer stopped for using a tripod by the river Thames outside the Tower of London by a Beefeater - apparently as tripods are used by terrorists!

Overnight Guest

We had this rather lovely, leggy visitor overnight. This is Missy, a 5 month old beagle pup. Unfortunately, she couldn't stay in her old home due to a change in circumstances, so her owner surrendered her into the care of HOPE Recsue. She's great with kids and other dogs (had a great romp with a pack of about 10 dogs in the park this morning, and loved every minute!) and is certain to find a great new home with HOPE's expert help.



If you're interested in a rescue dog, please get in touch with HOPE (or a good local rescue who homecheck and neuter) and consider taking in a dog in need of a home. Most dogs are like Missy - needing a new home through no fault of their own, and will make wonderful companions for you and your family.

A look that speaks volumes

Natch. Just captured at an unfortunately dopey-looking moment...

Say what?

Raspberries

This is a fairly standard expression should anyone dare to approach ball - dog with ball in a manger?!

Land Rover Lover

Uncomfy, noisy (communication isn't an option when in motion), hard to park (especially in North London), gearbox like stirring porridge, clutch like a brick, cold, and so on ad infinitum. So why do I still yearn for one of these bad boys?
