Beautiful calm up to Richmond Bridge this evening. Though winter is here, it was freezing towards sunset.

Mum.

Talking family trees. Amazing that someone who gets frustrated remembering things in the short term has such sharp memory for names and events as far back as 1945 and beyond. Finding out things and people I had no clue about.

Riverside Beech tree, Strand-on-the-Green.

Beech is considered the queen of trees, where the oak is king. One of those trees with lots of myths attached. Apparently you can roast the edible nuts and use as a coffee substitute too. Whether I’d try is another thing!

Syon Crossing and Kew Rail Bridge in the fog today

Syon Crossing and Kew Rail Bridge in the fog today.

Rowers refer to the bridge as Kew Rail Bridge. Completed in 1850, it seems to have had other names along the way. Strand-on-the-Green Railway Bridge and Mortlake Bridge pop up in references too. I quite like the Strand-on-the-Green version as it glams it up a bit. I don't think it's a pretty bridge!

Strand-on-the-Green and Kew Bridge.

Night sessions begin. The river at night is a completely different place. You need to keep good lookout. But there is often a beautiful calm.

There’s a moment in any photographer’s career

There’s a moment in any photographer’s career when you can justify your collection of empty boxes. Admittedly one was older than both my daughters.

Declutterring - sending some of the weird and wonderful photographic ephemera collected over many years to new lives via ebay. And the original boxes are perfect!

Polaroid ‘lifts’.

Cutting Polaroid print borders off and floating the gossamer thin emulsion onto another base, such as art paper. A heartbreaking process when the emulsion tears! See last frame.
