I love taking shots through train doors, but rarely get the chance. This was taken at Mordern, would like the play more with this kind of shot but only had a limited time here.

London, like any city, is always full of delights and surprises – one of them being Morden Hall Park, not far from the Northern Line’s southernmost terminal. Now owned and managed by the National Trust, this lovely place covering 125 acres was once a deer park in a private estate on the banks of the River Wandle.
The river meanders through the park, creating a haven for walkers and wildlife alike – not least a large rose garden and a substantial wetland area, complete with wooden boardwalk.
The previous owner of the land, together with the Morden Hall mansion, was one Gilliat Hatfeild* (1827-1906), a tobacco merchant who passed it on to his son, also Gilliat (1864-1906). He in turn left the estate to the National Trust.
And here it is today, a park for everyone. There’s no entrance fee, and it’s one of the capital’s natural delights. The mansion, by the way, is now an upmarket wedding venue.
* The spelling’s correct!
A heavy dew covered the roses with the tiniest of droplets making the ridges look like many crystal balls had been attached. An early morning shoot captured the magic.
