I don't believe it. Some photos I am (reasonably) happy with.

It's been a while since I had any images I wanted to post here. The muse had departed. Tonight I got some I wanted to share.
Southwark Cathedral by candlelight.
Damn, it was dark in there 🙂

Up in town today and did two of the major exhibitions.

Silk Road at the British Museum was great but not my thing honestly.

Van Gogh at the National Gallery was, however, stunning.

I went fairly late in the day, so it wasn't CRAZY but it was busy.
Ticket price offset almost half the cost of my Membership

If you only do one, go to the Van Gogh.

Gathering together 61 of Vincent van Gogh’s masterpieces from around the world, the National Gallery’s once-in-a-lifetime show lets the art speak for itself

Might be worth staying up a little later than normal. Maaaybe 11pm :-)

Sorry I haven't posted much here lately. The Muse is fast asleep but I can feel an awakening.
Give me a thumbs up?

I went up the new London viewpoint at Battersea Power Station at the end of November.

It's an interesting experience but a bit pricey for what it is - which basically 5 minutes at the top via a lift.

In the summer it's going to be hot and nasty as there is no air-con in what is basically a large goldfish bowl.

So today was an open day at the Dungeness Sound Mirror site. It's managed by the RSPB and it's only open a few days a year. Here's one early edit from today.
