2020 has changed lives so much, we are all processing photographs from years ago as we are in Corona Virus Lockdown 2.
Some nice reflections of the Thames Barrier
Let's stay at the Café Cap Landen on the Italian riviera, which serves as our refuge after our continuous swim. The view of the glistening sea is indeed phenomenal. Today I have published a picture story (with German text, but there are mainly pictures) on my blog that tells of a day under the Ligurian sun. It includes family and souvenir photos that I would never publish on flickr. I think a few of my following friends are interested on my picture story: www.anchor.ch/italien/ein-tag-unter-der-ligurischen-sonne/
An abstract shot from an early morning walk - this is an illuminated barrier post to keep cars out. Shot full-frame, I found it interesting
Don't try this as home - or in the Thames for that matter. This is not an idea place to be and you have to be aware of the tide - especially in the River Thames.
This one, taken on the foreshore looks back at the Thames Barrier with Canary Wharf and the setting Sun in the distance.

Another one from last year. I liked the light on that day and I hope it comes across. I applied a slight Orton effect, having just followed a tutorial. I thought it made the colours friendlier.
For the Fenced Friday group: One from last January when we had so much snow. This is a barrier to a railway crossing, you couldn't have jumped this one easily on that day.
Happy Friday, stay warm and safe!
Adding up with each year tides...

Day by day Ker Châlon Series
During Lockdown 2.0, I went everyday before work on the same spot, on the same beach. Here's a small selection of images I took. TBH that one is a stretch further ;)

This is to show you that, during low tide, swimming is not dangerous, as you can see there are many children in the water. My first day in Recife, seeing that there was not enough sea inside, I dived and swimmed beyond the barrier, I did not know that there could be sharks, I've been lucky. During my many holidays in Recife nothing serious has ever happened in this part of the beach, but, a few hundred meters from me, once a shark attacked a bather (during high tide) and another time some bathers managed to "beach" a shark and then kill it with blows with wooden and iron sticks

Questa per farvi vedere che, durante la bassa marea, la balneazione non è pericolosa, ci sono molti bambini in acqua. Il mio primo giorno a Recife, ritenendo che ci fosse poco mare per me all'interno, m'ero tuffato oltre la barriera, non sapevo ancora che ci potevano essere gli squali, ho avuto fortuna. Nelle mie numerose vacanze a Recife non è mai successo niente di grave in questa parte di spiaggia, ma, a qualche centinaio di metri da me, una volta uno squalo ha attaccato un bagnante (durante l'alta marea) ed un'altra volta alcuni bagnanti sono riusciti a "spiaggiare" un pescecane e poi a finirlo con con colpi di bastoni di legno e di ferro
