Today we went to Richmond with Colin’s grandchildren before they start back at school but the interesting photo opportunities came in the evening when the Teddington RNLI undertook a major training exercise on the river Thames at Kingston.
Two large boats - the Yarmouth Belle and the Thames Venturer simulated a crash. in the middle of the river and there were even floating ‘bodies’ and passengers with ‘injuries’. A number of passers by were quite concerned as thy were not aware that it was a training exercise - that didn’t stop them photographing it one their mobiles though!
Great dof in this capture, and I love the way the colour of the raft is reflected in the water. What a good thing that they hold training sessions for this activity, although one hopes it will never be needed in reality.
