Blue Hour at Albert Bridge - Thames Panorama Walk with RPS London (Thank you, Del!). Stitched panorama of several images taken from Waterside Point. Nice surprise from RPS London - I won the related competition with this image - need to scroll down a bit at the link www.rps.org/regions-and-chapters/regions/london/blogs/201...
A driver ambles slowly through the drizzle to collect his train as dusk falls in London SW11.
His demeanor suggests he's not looking forward to his shift.
Grade ll listed The Falcon pub has two claims to fame:
1) It reckons to have the longest continuous bar in the UK; Guinness World Records backs it up.
2) Part of the bar was supposedly designed by MC Escher. (Londonist)
During Thames Panorama Photo Walk with RPS I met this lovely gentleman artist David Lloyd Smith - here is a link to his website www.davidlloydsmith.co.uk/our-gallery

Misumena vatia is a species of crab spider with holarctic distribution. In North America, where it is the largest and best-known flower spider, it is called the goldenrod crab spider or flower (crab) spider,[1] because it is commonly found hunting in goldenrod sprays in the autumn. Young males in the early summer may be quite small and easily overlooked, but females can grow up to 10 mm (0.39 in) (excluding legs); males reach 5 mm (0.20 in) at most.
Description
These spiders may be yellow or white, depending on the flower in which they are hunting. Especially younger females, which may hunt on a variety of flowers such as daisies and sunflowers, may change color at will. Older females require large amounts of relatively large prey to produce the best possible clutch of eggs. They are therefore, in North America, most commonly found in goldenrod (Solidago sp.), a bright yellow flower which attracts large numbers of insects, especially in autumn. It is often very hard even for a searching human to recognize one of these spiders on a yellow flower. These spiders are sometimes called banana spiders because of their striking yellow color.
