Some winter colour as provided by the vibrant Midwinter Fire or Cornus and willow by the lake in St. James’s Park on a cold January day.
Camden Market Ties
Today I took a walk through a relatively quiet Camden Market. My friend Nicole suggested it. It wasn’t like a normal Sunday. The tie stall wasn’t open, for one. It was a quiet Sunday. But it was a pleasure to wander through the stalls in all their variety.
Feng Shang Princess
Season’s Greetings from downtown London. After a heavy snow storm yesterday the Feng Shang Princess floating restaurant on Regent’s Canal radiates a certain warmth. Shopping stopped for the day and so did the trains and planes and automobiles. It felt like Christmas.
Carnaby Street at Christmas
Spacewalk Santa above Carnaby Street. It’s an unusual take on Christmas, but preferable to the corporate one on nearby Regent Street.
St Pancras Gas Holder
This gas holder, probably built around 1861, is the last remaining structure on the site of the headquarters of the Imperial Gas Company built in 1824 in St Pancras. It somehow doesn’t look at all out of place in 21st Century St. Pancras.
Houseboats in Regent’s Park
This week’s photo could be entitled "Waiting for the Leaves to Turn". I went for a walk in Regent’s Park hoping to capture some shades of autumn but everything was still quite green. I turned my attention to the housing in the park instead and in particular this row of mobile homes on the canal.
Centre Point House
I was in St Giles High Street this afternoon on what was a spectacular autumn, if not summer even, day. I looked at the almost completed Renzo Piano complex, Central St Giles but my attention was drawn to Centre Point House, one of my old favourites.
