Gabo Fountain in the gardens of St Thomas' Hospital. I've taken a number on long exposures of the Elizabeth Tower (Big Ben) in the past, but have never succeeded in getting a clear shot of the clock dial. What do I need to do!
“He dug so deeply into her sentiments that in search of interest he found love, because by trying to make her love him he ended up falling in love with her. Petra Cotes, for her part, loved him more and more as she felt his love increasing, and that was how in the ripeness of autumn she began to believe once more in the youthful superstition that poverty was the servitude of love. Both looked back then on the wild revelry, the gaudy wealth, and the unbridled fornication as an annoyance and they lamented that it had cost them so much of their lives to find the paradise of shared solitude. Madly in love after so many years of sterile complicity, they enjoyed the miracle of loving each other as much at the table as in bed, and they grew to be so happy that even when they were two worn-out people they kept on blooming like little children and playing together like dogs.”

A twilight photo in the gardens of St Thomas Hospital in Westminster, London. Taken in late December 2016, this features Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament and Westminster Bridge in the background. Naturally this area is a mecca for travel photographers and it can be difficult to find an attractive position to photograph from without standing elbow-to-elbow with another photographer!

Sunrise on Gabo Island, Mallacoota. I have reduced the brightness a little. Spelling from the original sea shanty lyrics of the "What shall we do with the drunken sailor?"
Gabo Island Lighthouse. Taken a couple of years ago but for some reason I missed putting it up on Flickr
it was around 10:30 AM Sunday morning when I was watching TV and to the right of it I noticed Gabo laying down and looking towards the balcony window. He was so perfectly illuminated.....and since I did not want him to run off, I took very gentle steps to get my G12 and the tripod. Outside was cloudy and snowing a bit and light also being reflected from the snow sitting on the balcony.
