This is, of course, not the real Windy Bay in Antarctica, and it would be an exaggeration to say that it felt like it, since our temperatures in June do not usually drop below freezing. It is, however, unseasonably cold…

My facsimile paperback copy of Croker's book arrived today and I am none the wiser about where the boundaries of this project should lie. I started out working on the basis that it would be the entire borough, but there…

... or something more sinister? I find this rather disturbing. I snapped it because it looked like an interesting architectural detail, but on closer examination of the pic, it is so realistic, that I'm now wondering if it is a…

Oh dear, looks as though the folk across the road have a problem. I don't think we've seen an asbestos scare on the street before.

The Chelsea Collection is growing and I need to decide how to make it more focused, so I rejoined the local library and managed to lose a few hours browsing through old books on Chelsea - fascinating.

I've snapped the glass sculpture on many occasions, so the addition of a few empty chairs was most welcome. For those of you expecting "Schadenfreude" ... sorry, there just wasn't anything around;-)

I don't think this belongs in the"Lost and Found" collection - I think it's on its lunch break.

With the demise of lost property offices and fewer police-stations, what do you do with found objects? Put them on a wall or railing? It was not there on the way home, so let's hope that it has been re-united…

Fabulous light this evening, but by the time I'd gathered camera, card, battery and lens, I only had time to don my slippers and scramble out onto the roof. No tripod handy, so hand-held and rather noisy. Hoping we…

... the cat and the fiddle, the cow jumped over the moon". Fingers crossed that this year's herd sticks to the moon and doesn't try to jump over the wall as happened a few years ago.

Another interesting find at the side of the road. There is so much fascinating stuff in the hedgerows and byways - even in the depths of Ruralania.

Having observed the lemming behaviour with discarded coffee cups and newspapers, I came across a more extreme example - sofas.

As we all trooped out of the tube station, dressed for summer, into the pouring rain and cold rain at that. I am totally fed up with it feeling like winter when it is June in two days time.

It's easy to be critical of the weeds and dying plants in other people's window boxes as I flaneur through the streets of London, but whilst I was dossing around today, doing nothing except re-reading Salem's Lot, I noticed the…

I shall leave the description of this to the artist: 'With the installation Faggot on Vienna’s Morzinplatz, the artist Jakob Lena Knebl presents a temporary memorial to the homosexuals, lesbians, and transgender persons persecuted and murdered under the Nazi regime.…

At last, I've been able to borrow a loan model, so my camera can go back to Germany to have the rangefinder re-calibrated. Oh the joy of not having to shoot at f8 or at infinity. I was quite carried…
