Bloomingfoods' tour of Lazy Black Bear, Gypsy Ridge, and Sun Circle farms. Jean Kautt and daughter Grace enjoy the day!
On Thursday 30 March, forty five and a half supporters and friends of London Food Link (LFL) gathered at Clerkenwell Kitchen to enjoy the Local Food Feast.
Chef Oliver Rowe and his voluntary kitchen brigade served up a four-course, sumptuous, seasonal supper, which showcased some of the capital’s finest growers and small batch producers.
During the evening, guests also enjoyed personal food stories from BBC Food Programme presenter Sheila Dillon, with a lucky few bagging delicious lots in a silent auction and raffle.
The event was held both as a celebration of the best of London’s local larder and as the start of a crowdfunding campaign to help secure the future of The Jellied Eel magazine, supporting small producers and growers, and the rest of LFL’s work as the voice for good food in London.

I was out and about not long after sunrise on the recent May bank holiday weekend. As usual I was chasing the light with a view to landscapes, I was on my usual patch on the hilltops west of Huddersfield, above Meltham and Marsden. I’m still getting over foot surgery so my walking is restricted a bit and I was sat in the pickup watching the light when I noticed three hares chasing around, occasionally stopping to box. I decided to go back after breakfast with a longer lens and see if I could catch up with them again. Initially I used a 300mm 2.8 with 1.4 and 2x convertors. I had some success over the next few days with this. In the end I decided to use a large and very heavy 500mm and monopod. I tried the convertors but the quality dipped so I reverted back to just the 500mm but also using it freehand, no support. The more I use it the better I get-like most things in life I guess. I spent the rest of the short holiday weekend in the sun photographing lapwings, their chicks, curlew and hares, getting a suntan at the same time. I’ve ended up on a bit of a mission, it looks like this will be this summer’s challenge.
Within days I had seen deer, owls, heron as well as the lapwings and curlews etc. I wasn’t always able to get a decent shot as I was often driving at the time. I’m on a learning curve now and the results are getting better. I’ve learnt a lot about the birds and animals that I’m stalking and I’ve had to start and study the camera autofocus choices available and experiment with them. Fortunately the weather has been ok for a couple of weeks, which is unusual around here these days. There are hundreds of lapwings guarding their eggs and some with chicks, oystercatchers, a variety of ducks and of course grouse, seeing as these moors are shooting moors. The grouse are favoured at the expense of everything else, anything that is a threat or competition won’t be treated favourably by the shooting fraternity, they certainly don’t like scrutiny and over the years have made entry to the moors in certain parts as difficult as is legal-or perhaps that’s just the perception of some of the rest of us who watch these things from a distance.

A local television news crew doing a story on how to stay cool in the summer. Play in the fountain, eat ice cream, dont wear long sleeve shirts and jeans...
Local parents sometimes volunteer to help ease the budget crisis.
NOTE: Look "wall-eyed" at the top pair or "cross-eyed" at the bottom pair to get a 3D image from the fused pictures. Another illustration.
Here's a helpful tip for viewing stereo pairs.
Neil Creek has even more information about 3D photo viewing.
If you'd like to browse a bit, please enjoy a somewhat random sampling of my photos.
Another store front...hmmm, it's still here, so I either didn't sell them one, or did another and this is a reject. Some of these might be nice in color, but at the time it never crossed my mind to do that., even though it was drawn on paper that would take the watercolor wash.
Local Daddagiri's
Myna evicting egg from the nest of other birds. They attack and remove the eggs/break it so that other birds are forced to leave the nest and these myna's occupy.
In this case, it was the nest of babbler once and not anymore. They normally target woodpeckers/parakeets/etc.,

Some simple DoF and a new curves layer that I've been tinkering with to give that chilled out, summery feel.

A series of seven pictures.
During the calm sunny evenings there is often some hot air balloon activity.
For the first time one came overhead at rooftop height. No need for a telephoto lens !
