Richmond Park Adventure

I've got some beautiful photos here (it was a beautiful place - rather than any sort of skill in photography) from my little trip to Richmond Park last week. My dad was the one who suggested we go there, for the 'autumn trees', in December. As you can imagine, I was a bit sceptical about how autumnal it would be, but surprisingly there were still some stubborn coloured leaves clinging on. We walked around the gardens and stalked the famous deer, before warming up in a little cafe with a much-needed mug of hot chocolate.

Luckily, we caught the gorgeous golden hour, when the sun's position in the sky makes everything so much more magical. You'll be able to see it through my photos, especially when the deer appear (unintentional rhyme there!), as that's when I was truly shooting during the golden hour.

Flock of Leaves

Christmas countdown: 22 days!

♥

Hiya!

It's finally December - the most cheerful month! With Christmas coming up (and my birthday), I'm already super excited for the holidays.

Lights will need to go up, presents bought, parties planned...

But in the meantime, how about some birds eh?

This was taken in front of the Centre Pompidou in Paris when a flock of birds (pigeons?) flew overhead. There were loads of them, all lifting off at the same time and flying in circles around the area in front of the museum.

I love the way the birds blend in and merge with the leaves, it makes me imagine that the leaves are transforming into them and flying away.

Or vice versa...

And I decided on black and white for this photo as it highlights the silhouettes, and hey, it looks cooler ;)

I love you
