The 17th UK South-East "The Summer of Awesomeness" Thread (All Welcome)

Nice graffiti JD. There's some amazing art out there nowadays I agree.

Richard - I think the weather is supposed to be ok tomorrow - Sunday not looking too great though.

The BBC nature folk got in touch via Flickr - one of my pics is here http://www.bbc.co.uk/n​ature/25007370

I've been busy with dogs in my studio. A Swiss Entleboucher (yes I had never heard of them either!) on Weds and two long haired mini dachs on Thursday. All very well behaved and a pleasure to work with.

Thanks Adrian,

Love that graffiti too Jonathan... sometimes wish I was back down London again... Have had loads of good nights in Shoreditch.

Wow - there's this button on my dusty old camera that when pressed captures wonderful moments in time... I really must press it more, ideally to a very high standard!

It's been ages, work's been manic, I finally move on this coming Friday & there's every chance normality will return this side of Christmas!

I've loved the plane pics Ian & Radders, the graff is great too JD, the pooches are tremendous & Fuzz you need to realise you're much more talented than you think!

I've not been out at all really, went to Richmond a few weeks ago - ropey light but the best breath of fresh air for no money I think!

The bugs are still growing albeit some slower than others...

Hope everyone's good and perhaps (dare I say it) a meet up soon?

Glad to see you are still around Lee.

Moving? What at work or moving home?

Spent the day with SVTManiac and his wife yesterday, who are visiting from the US. We walked a decent bit - London Eye/South Bank, Trafalgar Square, Covent Garden, Somerset House, St. Paul's, Millennium Bridge/Tate Modern, Tower Bridge, and St. Katharine Docks. Some shots from the walk...

1. Christmas market at South Bank - all the food smelled fantastic (especially the hog roast!):

Morning folks.
Great set Lee - good to see you're still taking pics - the bugs are growing indeed! good luck with the house move - a stressful time indeed.

Fuzz - more great city shots - like them all

Now I know we shouldn't laugh. But if you haven't seen this - it's very funny…..

Always love the critters, this guy is especially cool.

I feel like we should meet up at the winter wonderland in hyde park for a few pints again

3. Covent Garden:

Yea, that's a decent bit of walking I'd say. All the shots are great, love the xmas feel of the Covent Garden one though

I've been frankly a little surprised to see all the Christmas decorations (and ads) already up. In the US, the Christmas "season" doesn't start until after Thanksgiving (last Thursday in November).

Did someone mention the C word?

That's called testing the calibration of your lens by the drop test method

sounds like a good idea - shall we attempt to agree a date?

Well good luck with the move Lee - hope it all goes through smoothly on the day and hope its not pouring down with rain, there is nothing worse than moving in awful weather.

I'm free most weekends in the run up to Christmas.

Where are you moving to mate??
