In the Netherlands. They recently started a second one just across the border in Germany.

Reading this thread (and seeing all your lovely pictures) has made me want to try some photography myself. I had a dream about it last night, but in the dream I ended up getting viciously attacked by the robins I was taking pictures of.

Sounds like your subconscious is afraid of proving to be a poor photographer. You'd better prove it wrong.

I Really enjoyed your photos Sir Grey (..another long time!)

It's not all about technical ability, and what i really liked with your photos is that they connected with me ... opening a real window, beyond the posts - i found it charming to see your garden, in riotus bloom -

i particularly liked the window basket.

Gave me a sense of peace, somehow.

Best BB

Thanks my friends - indeed, mum is very good at flowers and blooms. I, on the other hand, am only "good" at the photographical "documentation" of the splendour of colour and form.

If you're in London, try Holland Park - the robins there are really friendly

Lovely flowers, GW!

Ah, you're presenting us with pics of what it will be like when the ship arrives this afternoon

It's a magnificent ship which I've had the chance to visit on several occasions. Only last week it was in Stockholm again. It's got a genuine old ship-ish ambience about it with its wood, ropes, blocks and tackles. It conveys that feeling a lot more strongly than the other East Indiaman I've been onboard, namely Amsterdam from the Netherlands.

The same goes for the pelicans in St James's Park
And the squirrels too (pic from 2005).

Indeed, buddy! Im posting a number of photo series from 08 and 09. And this one was taken with my compact. I was not in Stokholm during the festivities and missed the ship.

Ill be going up to the capital in the second weekend in July.

Jonathan! That squirrel is so cute! I really want to go there now. The friendliest a squirrel ever got with me was jumping on my lap to get up onto a picnic table. Scared me half to death.

I'm not gonna lie, those shoes are rad Jonathan. Are they regular day-to-day shoes or special walking/hiking shoes?
