and sadly other intervening trips this way (25Jun2002, 23Jul2002, 12Oct2002, 23Dec2002, 21Nov2023) were either too dark, too far away or failed to take a picture _sigh_

Today at Richmond Wier/Lock.

Sign said not to go past so phoned locky who apologised and said he'd forgot to switch it over with all the commotion going on- but not to worry about Fire Brigade and crowds it was just a couple of dolphins - which swam past me heading downstream 🙂

Plenty of space to moor up 👍

Spring - from a few years ago

Picture from this day 2013 - by Balls Bridge B+F and my second post for Tonic. As I was lying on the grass, pressing the shutter, I was aiming for a IWA calendar picture, which it succeeded in being for the 2015 calendar. This is another version of the same idea ...
