Victoria Park in east London was created in 1845 and became an essential amenity for local people, many of whom lived in poor housing in the late 19th century.
Now like many London parks it is regularly used as the site for music festivals in the summer. The local council closes off a large area of the park with a tall fence, with access inside only available to ticket-buying festival goers.
Everyone else, like me, has to remain Outside the Festival. This is a collection of images of what we get to see of the event.

The following is from Wikipedia:
The Mid-Autumn Festival (simplified Chinese: 中秋节; traditional Chinese: 中秋節), also known as the Moon Festival or Mooncake Festival, is a traditional Chinese festival celebrated by many East and Southeast Asian countries and regions. It is the second-most important holiday after Chinese New Year with a history dating back over 3,000 years, when the Emperor of China worshipped the moon for bountiful harvests.
The festival is held on the 15th day of the 8th month of the Chinese lunisolar calendar with a full moon at night, corresponding to mid-September to early October of the Gregorian calendar. On this day, the Chinese believe that the moon is at its brightest and fullest size, coinciding with harvest time in the middle of Autumn.
Lanterns of all size and shapes, are carried and displayed – symbolic beacons that light people's path to prosperity and good fortune. Mooncakes, a rich pastry typically filled with sweet-bean, egg yolk, meat or lotus-seed paste, are traditionally eaten during this festival. The Mid-Autumn Festival is based on the legend of Chang'e, the moon goddess in Chinese mythology.

1 year. It seems to be long and feels very short.
Fireworks of Gion went up this year, again.
とても忙しかったこの1年。
長いようでとても短く感じます。

Dans le cadre du festival Jam JLM 2025, ces fresques puissantes rendent un vibrant hommage aux mineurs, à l’histoire de la cité minière, et à ses habitants — ceux qui ont déjà quitté les lieux et ceux qui y vivent encore, au cœur d’un quartier en pleine mutation.
Chaque regard peint sur ces murs raconte une vie de labeur, de fierté, de solidarité. Il y a de la joie, de la nostalgie, parfois même une forme de gravité, dans cette atmosphère suspendue entre passé et avenir.

Retour sur une journée passée au festival de Cannes.
Le festival s'est clos hier.
Voir ma série de la journée précédente :

Le lendemain, invité par le Maire, certains cannois sont en attente de gravir le tapis rouge pour y voir le film qui a obtenu la veille la Palme d'Or, film d'Audiard.
(On a eu la chance d'y être aussi invité par un couple d'amis australiens ... top de top que de vivre cette ambiance sommes toutes désuètes)

Back on a day in Cannes.
The festival ended yesterday.
See my series of the previous day:

The next day, invited by the Mayor, some Cannes are waiting to climb the red carpet to see the film that won the day before the Palme d'Or, Audiard film.
(We also had the chance to be instructed to do so by a couple of Australian friends ... top top than to live this atmosphere are all outdated)
Have seen this lady at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe previously but never photographed her. Loved her look and outfit, and managed to isolate her against a plain wall with narrow depth of field.
The Great Christmas Tree Festival at St John's Church in Knaresborough, North Yorkshire.
There are more trees and you have the opportunity to vote for the best tree. Now in its forth season and open while Dec 10. Well worth a visit if you are local.

Every year, thousands of followers of Loknath, gather at different branches of Shri Shri Lokenath Brahmachari Ashram for the Kartik Brati or Rakher Upobash religious festival. The fasting devotees sit for prayer with burning incense and oil lamps. The festival is held on every Saturday and Tuesday during the last 15 days of Bangla month of Kartik. Lokenath Brahmachari, mostly known as Baba Lokenath, was an 18th Century Hindu saint and philosopher in Bengal. Lighting small lamps and special incense, Hindu worshipers fast and pray in earnest to the gods for favors during this ritual.
