Richmond upon Thames: the view from London's "Arcadia" along the River Thames in Southwest London.
Serious Racers: these ladies brought their superbly maintained Cornish Pilot Cutter (a Southwest of England style sea going boat) all the way from Warmond near Leiden in Holland.
These ladies, no less serious, dressed up and rowed all the way down to Greenwich in style.

Serious boating aside, this looks like a fine group of folks taking a light hearted approach and enjoying the day and the festivities. Bet you had a ball photographing this event.
ReplyDeleteHigh heels! They rowed a boat in high heels ...
ReplyDeleteThe second lot rowed in that gear?! My God, they are candidates for Monte Carlo ladies, aren't they?
ReplyDeleteWhy do I prefer the first lot? Ah I know, I'm not a man...
