Some London shots

I was in London yesterday and had a camera with me.

Trees at Audley End

Last Sunday I was at Audley End and the trees were glorious lots of Autumn Colours. Now oddly I thought some of these would work in B&W  but they just didn't.


This is one that didn't make the cut for the main blog.

On the main blog I posted a picture of the right hand tree. That didn't work in B&W whereas adding the sculptural nature of the left hand tree does. Well I think so! Feel free to disabuse me of that view.

Tree at Claydon House

I took this in the summer at Claydon House in Buckinghamshire......

I think it works

Lavenham

I was in Lavenham this morning. It is a lovely large village in Suffolk with some very fine old buildings.

This building is an Estate Agents! 

I'm assuming this MAY have been a bakery.... there may be a clue :)

The Little Hall

The Guildhall

Very early morning in London

I was taking pics in London early this morning.

Paternoster Square

St Paul's

There was a WWII Memorial Event going on

Got to love this foot bridge it has some super views.

Looking back to St Paul's

Waiting for the off

The Stig

Views from London Bridge

Positano

Positano is a village on the Amalfi coast, for the first half of the 20th century it was a poor fishing village but after John Steinbeck published an essay about it in 1953 it was discovered by tourists.

Today it has reinvented itself for tourists. It is very pretty but it is lacks a bit of authenticity.

I arrived by bus which has some spectacular views. I hopped off at the top and walked down.

There was a band playing

Rather than walk back I got the boat back to Amalfi.

The Grand Marina Sorrento

Some pictures of the Grand Marina in Sorrento, despite the name it is not the port where you get the boats for Capri, Positano etc and is more like a fishing village.

Some of the restaurants are fisherman collectives and they catch the fish and serve it!

This chap was preparing fish as I awaited my order :D

From later in the day.
