Exploring London Since 2007
This week at the digital-photography-school.com, the competition is “weather” and we’ve certainly had some of that today in London.

Yesterday we embarked on an adventure along the Regent’s Canal from Roman Road up to trendy Hoxton, taking a diversion onto Columbia Road on the way. Just after passing underneath the Roman Road the canal runs along the west side of Victoria Park where we came upon an overfamiliar grey squirrel – what is it […]
A month or so ago there was a pilot in the States of a new sci-fi series called ‘Virtuality’ – effectively it was a dramatised ‘big brother in space’. In addition to its really clumsy title you didn’t get the feeling that it was going to go anywhere, and sure enough it doesn’t look like […]
