Wishing You A Merry Christmas: As up to now few years I’ve produced a digital Christmas Card for my many on-line associates, together with all of the readers of this >RE: Photograph weblog and my over 4,000 Fb associates.
The image isn’t maybe very Christmassy, however then neither are many on the precise printed playing cards I’ve receeived. It’s one among quite a lot of photos I took on a few visits with associates to the West Norwood Cemetery this yr after we largely adopted the Discovering Britain stroll created in collaboration with the Buddies of West Norwood Cemetery.
It took us two visits, as on the primary go to in July we acquired midway spherical and have been on the furthest level from the cemetery entrance when the heavens opened for one of the vital torrential downpours. We sheltered for some minutes underneath a tree earlier than strolling underneath our umbrellas alongside the paths which have been now small streams to the exit. By the point we reached the bus cease it had nearly stopped raining however we have been fairly moist and had had sufficient for the day – and took a bus to the The Holland Tringham in Streatham the place we drank a toast to the artist.
We returned in September, when the climate was a bit of kinder. It had been vivid and sunny after we arrived on the Greek part of the cemetery however quickly after we arrived we needed to shelter underneath a tree for a couple of minutes. However I feel the rain made most of the monuments look higher.
I’d visited the cemetery years earlier in 1990 and made fairly just a few photos there, round 40 of that are on Flickr, primarily from the Greek part, beginning right here.
However the image I printed for playing cards for just a few associates, primarily photographers was this one among a store window taken throughout our Christmas stroll in December final yr, which started with a brief stroll across the Metropolis of London and a go to to Leadenhall Market and a drink in a pub there earlier than going a brief distance away for a meal.
