I managed to nab a cherished front seat on the DLR. The windscreen wiper arms across the right of the shot were unavoidable. Approaching Tower Gateway Station as another one had just departed and a C2C train on the mainline to the right had just left Fenchurch Street.

The top of Lord's Seat is a smooth grassy dome, the summit being marked by the meeting point of ruined fences and a small cairn. The view is extensive, befitting the highest point north of Whinlatter. The Northern Fells are well displayed over Bassenthwaite and there is also a good view of the Helvellyn range. Grasmoor and its supporters restrict the southward panorama, but there is no such obstruction to the north, the Scottish Hills being visible across the Solway Firth.

Chairs and Benches
This is yet another new series of photographs this time about Chairs and Benches with a few other seating items thrown in.
They can be Regal, Practical, Ultra Design items, Art Installations, used for Potty Training. They can even be vehicles of Execution. They hold immense power and none at all. From the densest populated cities, to the most remote parts of the world. Usually sturdy; reliable; honest; comfortable; often filled with people. People talking, sleeping, with their phones, eating, climbing to reach other items, feeding birds, making love and every scenario one can think of.
The imagination can run riot over the most important conversations that have taken place on them, what they could tell you if they could, what they would tell you if they wanted too. As usual I hope you enjoy what I have posted and this is the first of many……….
Rising up under the seat
It devours the bench and does eat
Swallowing the wood in its mouth of green
Until its gone, no longer seen
Until nature reclaims all of the ground
Beautiful green does grow and no seat is found

Ein guter Freund hat mich gefragt ob ich nicht ein schönes Foto von seinem Auto machen kann. Ich frage: Was ist denn ein schönes Foto? Antwortet mein Freund: Keine Ahnung, mach irgendwas. Na ja, seht selbst....
A good friend asked me if I could take a nice photo of his car. I ask, what is a beautiful photo? My friend replies: I don't know, do something. Well, see for yourself...
