Leaving Marylebone, we walked to Baker St and took the tube to Bond St. The plan was to walk to Soho, taking in a few more Monopoly locations on the way. Time was against us, however, if we wanted to…

Disappointed with the strobe lights of Piccadilly Circus, we headed along Piccadilly, making a quick stop at Vine St. Vine St is somewhat disappointing, a rather dull cul-de-sac that leads to the tradesmen entrance of Le Meridien Hotel. It appeared…

Took the lens baby for a spin round the Brompton Cemetery today. Fabulous light and shadows again, crocuses coming through, snowdrops in abundance. I love Brompton Cemetery - the higgledy-piggledy way the stones fight for space, the fascinating (and sometimes…

Spring continues with another sunny day - I think this low light ("low" as in the sun being low and casting long shadows, rather than "low" as in needing a high ISO) is my favourite light. This was taken through…

Oh what adifference a bit of decent light makes! Blue skies and daffs beginning to bloom, I felt as if today were really the first day of spring. Keeping the yellow and blue theme going as a backdrop to two…

Another pic for the time capsule. Although the overarching theme at the moment is food, we have been asked to photograph our kitchens. I'm sure we're not alone in having plugs that are now dedicated to chargers. With a selection…

Another image for my time-capsule. Continuing the theme of food and kitchens, this is the steamer. I use the steamer a lot, as it prevents scalding hand-burning when it comes to draining, I can cook a whole variety of stuff…

The most amazing sunset tonight but unfortunately I was caged in at the station car-park. By the time I escaped, the sun had set, but I managed to snap a sunsetty abstract from within the cage.

The shops are full of chocolate, strawberries and cakes, but at £28.85 I am not tempted.

By the time I'd finished my last meeting, it was cold and grey, so no time (or inclination) for flaneuring around today.

A desperately dull pic today and deliberately so. As I ambled around the corner, I was shocked to discover that Le Suquet seems to have disappeared. It might be that it is being refurbished, but there was no notice indicating…

Today's plans were somewhat thwarted by snow - unfortunately, there wasn't really enough for good snow pictures either, so a good book and more Lem-Sip prevailed.

Utterly brilliant and completely inspirational. 'I like it when one is not certain of what one sees. We don't know why the photographer has taken such a picture. If we look and look, we begin to see and are still…

The highlight of the day was definitely the conversation over dinner, when we discussed how travelling today is far more strenuous than we ever expected it to be (aren't we all supposed to be zooming around in little capsules and…

Is this the start of the latest trend in urban art? It's the first and only one of the species that I've seen. It was too high up for me to see what it was made of, but I shall…

I was in the vicinity of Askew Road for a workshop and, as I was early, had a potter to take some snaps. I noticed that the street was rather different from those in Chelsea and was mentally noting the…
