A day out in London - December 2021

Houses of Parliament from across the Thames

Again in December I find myself struggling to get the motivation to be out and about with the camera so on a day up in London I made a few photographs on the iPhone near the Westminster and Vauxhall area. I am planning to change my current iPhone as the 6S+ that I am currently using is getting a little long in the tooth and the battery is practically exhausted after only a few hours.

I was meeting up with some of my old colleagues, many of whom I hadn’t seen since retiring in October 2020. There will be some who will be very familiar with some of the shots below. Covid restrictions are still in place so the venues were not as busy as would normally be the case and the train to and from Victoria was not as busy as would normally have been the case. I certainly don’t miss the commuting!
