Capturing September attempt # 8(DF) - # 08/222

First: a mighty "Thank You" to all those who commented and encouraged me yesterday following my rant about the lousy summer and the unending cloud. Anon in Seattle and Virginia in Birmingham Ala. put it in perspective, AND Jules in Rabaul reminded me that she has to put up with Volcano dust several times a year.

As we all know, City DP is not a doddle. We all work quite hard at it. I went back a second time, with a tripod, to repeat and improve on earlier attempts to catch the essence of this rural scene.

But what is it? Things go up and things go down and everything changes. We can see that this old footpath was once well kept and it looks as if about 100 years ago someone put up an elegant and very clear boundary fence. It's "Douglas Footpath" running from Petersham Road down to the river Thames - very little used today but so charming and useful that "London's Arcadia" is restoring it to good condition. (click on the link at the right of this blog to read more about "London's Arcadia" - it's not always cloudy, even if it is for most of this year!!!!!).
