A photo (or three) a day for 2012.

Archive for the month “April, 2012”

Bicycle shadows, a trumpet busker and some mixed media…

Bike & shadow, near Fareham bus station, half-eightish in the morning.

Lunchtime trumpet busker, outside the 99p Store, West Street, Fareham.

And I finally bought one ;)… ‘Beach Hut Reflections’ by Christine Dear, Mirror/Oil/Mixed Media…for thirty quid :).

A Chinese Take-away, a yellow Beetle, and the Chinese State Circus…

A Chinese Take-away in Jessie Road, Southsea.

A yellow Volkswagen in Talbot Road, Southsea.

Souvenir Brochure for the Chinese State Circus, who XQ and I saw performing at the Ferneham Halls in Fareham this evening :).

A Covent Garden diversion…

Never discovered her name, but she was a knife-juggling acrobat, performing outside St Paul’s Church, Covent Garden, mid-afternoon today.

She persuaded a Dutch chap in the audience to throw the three knives up to her…

Here’s the climax of her act…and no, she didn’t drop any ;).

An evening ramble around Swanmore

Rambling around Swanmore...

Welsh pony, Swanmore ramble...

The walk's start...and end, at The Hunters Inn, Swanmore.

Random photos on a random Wednesday…

A window near Fratton station...

Morning milk, outside the 99p shop in West Street, Fareham.

The Pompey Megastore, beneath a blue tower block.

Smash and grab at the Nou Camp ;)

It's an awful shame for some football fans...

...and a lot of folk didn't give Chelsea a monkey's chance when Terry was sent off and Barca went 2-0 up tonight....and yet...

...here's a victorious Frank Lampard after the match (watched in the John Jacques pub in the Fratton Road).

More window art…and an evening train…

A couple of photographic panoramas of Portsmouth Harbour on canvas, in the window of The Fareham Gallery, West Street...

'Geisha', by Jenny Francis...another amateur artist on display in Fareham Shopping Centre...and at only £15, maybe I'll buy it 😉

Early evening train, snaking its way into Fratton, from Portsmouth Harbour...

London Marathon Sunday

Upper Thames Street...around the 24 mile marker.

Victoria Embankment...only a couple of more miles to go now...

Breast Cancer Awareness supporters...on Victoria Embankment.

An hour’s sauntering in Regent’s Park…

A wary-looking Grey Heron…why’s he pointing that silver thing at me? ;).

Looking over the lake from Queen Mary’s Garden…

Queen Mary’s Garden, as seen across the lake…
