I liked this view of some flowers overhanging the stream and the different looking background the moving water provides. The white flower is a wood anemone, the yellow one I’m not so sure of. Can anyone tell me?

Just a simple shot of the rain falling into Sovereign Harbour, Eastbourne. Then it started raining much harder so I put the camera away.

No. 1 London Bridge sits right on the Thames, by London Bridge of all places. I normally walk by without giving it too much attention, and although the design is unusual I don’t really like it. On this occasion however I walked past it on the opposite side of the street that I normally do and noticed the reflection of the bright blue skies and skyline.
I think I missed the best place to photograph this building however, I like the view that this photographer chose.

Bodiam Castle, built in 1395 is another reminder that the landscape in East Sussex used to be much different. It was built to protect from French raids up the River Rother, when the river was navigable up to that point. It is a lovely ruin and has been photographed beautifully by many people, as a Google image search reveals. I didn’t want to take a generic photograph of the castle, so I’m pleased that the Google search, at least on search page 1, doesn’t have a similar photograph! Do they work as a composition though? Your opinions would be welcome!
*These images are revisions of the ones I originally posted. I’d neglected to flip the photos round so that Bodiam Castle was orientated correctly and it always bothered me. I’ve corrected that now. You can view these full size on my Flickr page by clicking on the photograph.

It doesn’t often snow where I live, so when it does people like to take advantage and do all the sledging and snowballing they can before it melts. That meant that there were about 3000{9bc1cc8a9198725c785dc299d4853e65ac3850b4f9eac8bd629e2a5d8cbd0524} more people in my local woods than normal. I felt slightly aggrieved that these people were out in my woods making noise and trampling the snow into ice. Then I remembered that I don’t own the woods, and that they had the same right as me to be there. Anyway, after a fair amount of walking I managed to get away from the shouting and screaming, and took these.
