Roll 2

More film pictures, but this time from my little Olympus XA2. Here’s Oomoo walking through Olafur Eliasson’s ‘Your blind passenger’ installation at Tate Modern last year. I took many many more pictures in there with my DSLR on our previous visit - still need to post those!

Walking across Waterloo Bridge, back in May, after seeing a classical concert at the Royal Festival Hall. It was our first, and I hope to go again one day. When I saw that the London Philharmonic Orchestra were playing Shubert’s Unfinished Symphony I quickly got us tickets to see it, as it’s one of my favourite pieces of music ever. I remember there was an older woman sitting in the seats behind the orchestra, and during the first movement she had her hands clasped under her chin with the lovely smile on her face. She was clearly enjoying it, and maybe hearing it live for the first time too. I could hardly believe it myself, I mean to be able to sit and watch an orchestra play a piece of music almost 200 years old, that’s bloody terrific that is!

Walking home from the overground back in the summer. This section is usually a part of my runs, but I rolled my ankle back in November, and it still doesn’t feel right. Being middle aged sucks when it comes to recovering from injuries :0(

Found a playground halo.

Walking along Fournier St in Spitalfields and travelling in time. It’s lined with beautiful Georgian houses, and I’d love to see the interior in one of them. Positively dreamy. Found this blogpost where you can see what the houses looked like in the 1970’s, compared to now. Back in those days the houses were not the highly desirable ones they are now, and could be bought relatively cheaply.

My mum came to visit back in June, and we went in under this huge tree in Hyde Park. We were not the only ones.

My sister H, taking a pic of these bill posters further down on Fournier St. Isn’t the contrast between the past and the modern day great here?

That’s it for film pics this time round, as my third roll is full of personal pics, and none of them of the ‘taking pictures of loved ones from the back’ type. This was also the roll that had pictures on it from 2016 - Oomoo was tiny in comparison to now! Crazy.
