14.09.2025 11:00 β π 9 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Last week we had to put down our 13 week retriever pup, Jess, due to renal failure. Last night our neighbour, gave us this-a rose called 'Pretty Jessica'. I hardly know the neighbour but am touched beyond words at the kindness.
I'm also reading how to manage roses as I can't let this flower die. π

It was cloudy and forestry works meant that there were dead fallen trees everywhere so finding a composition was really tricky. Eventually the clouds broke up and sunshine flooded in for a few seconds at a time to allow this image.

The shard at sunset taken from the far side of the river Thames near London Bridge.
I don't do "street" photography so I was particularly happy with this one from Canada Square last weekend. I had to wait a while to get the right person in the right spot but eventually it worked out perfectly.

The sails are going back up on Chesterton Windmill in the next few days after 3 and a 1/2 years. This was the last image I took before they came down in 2021-I don't know if it was a proposal but the couple under the mill looked like that.
Superb image Paul πππ

After spending yesterday morning photographing Warwick Castle, I thought I may as well go back for a sunset too...

One I took whilst waiting for the fog to clear at Warwick Castle.
Well, it took a while, nearly 90 minutes to be exact, but eventually the fog cleared and standing on the castle bridge, waiting for the castle to show itself, paid off. Luckily fate gave me a bonus rower for my patience.
