A walk around Richmond Park 1 - # 66
Look at London on Google Earth. When still very high in the sky you will see a huge green area in the southwestern corner. That is the Royal Park of Richmond. It is 8 miles (13 km in circumference) and full of wild life and different habitats. This is the pond at the entrance known as Ham Gate. The photo was taken at about 07.00 hrs two weeks ago. You can see another shot of the Park in Post # 4 - that was taken around Christmas about two or three years ago.
What a beautiful, serene spot. What's surprising though, is that I can only see one person in your picture... is it always this quiet?
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was what a lonely little duck, but looking at the bigger picture I see a dog walker on the far bank.

coming back here after noting your comment on my comment sent to my other blog I not it is kerry-anne in SA rather than Jing in China who spotted the dog too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful and scenic panorama. And looks so peaceful as well. Love it.
ReplyDeleteHmmm.....seems a lot of you like this one. Perhaps I have to start a new habit of getting up early to take photos of lone dog walkers at crazy unsocial hours!!!! It quite clear that you all have large screens on your computers.
ReplyDeleteappears to be a lovely little escape from city life!
ReplyDeleteLovely and calm. Good shot Sir Chuck!
ReplyDeleteEngland really does have some beautiful places. Shame its so crowded though. Thanks for adding the comments over at Toruń DP. Hope to see you again soon!
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful. I think your duck looks kind of lonely out there all by itself.
