Round Pond, Kensington Gardens, London
Walking the doggie at dusk today, I chanced upon some of nature’s most graceful birds gliding silently on the edge of the pond. I had earlier missed the golden hour, as was slightly annoyed at myself for not getting out earlier to photograph the gorgeous orange and yellow autumnal colours in the park. The sun had set about 30 minutes ago, and it was getting darker by the second. I had to photograph something and these playful swans glided right up to greet us, although Kipper was slightly agitated by them. I fired off about 20 frames, and not many were sharp due to the slow shutter speeds. This one stood out the clearest, and the composition works for me.

Store window, Golborne Road W10
Once in a while I stroll down Golborne Road in North Kensington, and go window browsing along this ‘Bohemian’ part of town. The street is mainly dotted with Lebanese and Morrocan grocery stores and restaurants, and also the renown Cafe Lisboa, a favourite Portuguese cafe selling amazing nata cakes and milky lattes. This was a lucky shot of a window display from a second hand antiques and interior store selling some truly amazing recycled, found and vintage furniture.
