Down by the Thames

I can't believe how still the Thames was here.. I also can't believe that 1 hour before, it was torrential rain..! Strange day weather wise..!

This is my 300th photo of my 2nd year!! God, time is flying...

Glad I got a half decent shot in to mark the occasion, and one of Sangeeta who was so supportive and full of encourgement in the early days (no encouragement needed these days to get the camera out :-)...)

This, btw, was taken at Greenhithe near to the Dartford Bridge and Bluewater shopping centre... The boat owners were in a pub garden behind me watching... probably just in case we hopped in and sailed off somewhere haha...

This is excellent, did you take the same shot without Sangeeta? Would make a great wall picture if you did.

@vikdaddy cheers mate.. I didn't no, didn't think to actually, shame couldn't get the full mast in either but couldn't step back any further without taking a soaking...

A lovely shot. Nice composition and great clouds. We had an odd day weather wise too - hot and sunny all day (not used to that anymore!).

This is gorgeous!! Love how the lines of the mast and the clouds in the sky draw your eye towards your lady. :D

So pretty, Love the boat pulled out of the water. That sky is so clear and blue, never would have known that it had been raining.

Cracking shot Andy. Laughing at the thought of you and the missus trying to steal the boat!
