Circles and Squares and Good Timing!

Luckily, I’d just finished colouring in a circular ocean design on a square page when Nancy thoughtfully posted her Photo A Week Challenge with the topic of Circles and Squares – woo-hoo, immediately sorted for that one! And amazingly, just as I was busily preparing my post Linda helpfully posted her Friday Prompt for our Stream of Consciousness Saturday post on the topic of adverbs – so I quickly decided I could easily adapt my post to sneakily accommodate a few adverbs within the body of my text, and hey presto, here we are! Impressively for me, I’m even posting early – but I guess surely it’s already got to be Saturday somewhere in the world? 🙂

To have such spectacular wildflowers growing so comfortably within a big city is often a surprise to many people, residents and visitors alike, but here are this year’s beautiful bluebells flowering in Chalet Wood, Wanstead Park, East London. Some years they come slightly earlier, and some years they come a bit later, but their breath-taking abundance every spring never fails to make me smile 🙂

Three views of the great outdoors taken here in Wanstead Flats, Leytonstone, East London – even in a big city like London, we still have our own little oasis of open space to let us spend time in nature 🙂

As well as the Underground system, London also has an Overground railway, and so here in Leytonstone there are lots of little bridges like these dotted around all over the place 🙂

Photo a Week Challenge: Opening

I suddenly remembered taking this image of the entrance to the Stables Arches in Camden from under another archway – I really liked the unusual framing at the time, so it seemed a perfect contender for Nancy Merrill’s Photo a Week Challenge: Opening 🙂

Photo a Week Challenge: Public Transportation

A fun art filter livens up the mundane reality of photographing London’s public transport system, whether you choose to travel by tube, by bus, or by rented bicycle 🙂
