Some photos from the South Bank.
Pro- and anti-Brexit at Westminster
When I went to the Don McCullin exhition at Tate Britain last Wednesday (includes some photo of the wall going up in East Berlin in 1961 btw), just before midday, I passed the protesters, of whom there seem increasingly more. It was very warm for February.
The image settings seem to have changed – must read up on WordPress in an idle moment.
Photo walk – Zimbabwe Vigil – Sudan protest
After some attempts to accost people and ask to photograph them, it seemed more promising to seek protesters who wanted photographs.
The Zimbabwe Vigil takes place every Saturday outside Zimbabwe House – which I remember as Rhodesia House, long boarded up, in the 1960s. The Vigil has been happening since 2002! And there is a book.
I have not been following this. I remember we were very against the Ian Smith régime in the UK and not coming to an agreement with Ian Smith seems to have had devastating consequences.
At Trafalgar Square there was a protest by Sudanese against Omar Al-Bashir.
Elsewhere other things were happening.
Seagulls at Folkestone
I can’t remember if I’ve posted these before. They were taken with a small camera in the Eurotunnel terminus at Folkestone in July 2013. Standing in the queue for coffee I looked up and saw them standing on the canvas roof. Unfortunately maybe the roof has changed, but at all events there is now, or was last time I was there, a fake hawk flying above to frighten the seagulls off.
LATER NOTE: Here is a photo sent to me by Victor Dewsbery – it seemed difficult to add it in a comment. – I meant to mention his useful post on terminology in the construction industry recently but somehow never got round to it
