#RICHMONDPARK: for someone unencumbered with mass, I have a lot of static inertia when in bed or on sofa, but I staggered into the park for the time in ages, hoping the cold would deter the lukewarm Insta crowd - it did - and the deer were so relaxed I didn’t spot them until I was almost among them. I am not a fan of zoom lenses, quite the opposite, but I concede that modern cameras makes their lack of speed irrelevant. And modern software fixes their compromises perfectly. #canon #5d4 #deer #landscapephotography #richmond #visitrichmond

#FENCE: @hampoloclub have applied to build a 2-metre-high fence all the way along the perimeter, wrecking the open country feel. The existing fence is rubbish but this ask is hostile and inappropriate. Object to the application here: https://www.richmond.gov.uk/services/planning with application number 21/0957/PS192 #ham #petersham #richmond

#PROGRESS: we returned with wire cutters and stripped the tree of the bit of fence that had been wrapped around it - previously used by people sleeping in it. I do not begrudge anyone a spot to sleep off the ground, especially an area prone to flood, but this was getting spiky. We trimmed it and added it to the den. Junior also found a ripped tent that had been discarded and a swimming kickboard thing which we tied and hung to provide some shelter. Thank goodness for the humble Swiss Army knife. A good few hours work away from comics, iPads and being cooped up. #den #richmond #leicaq2 #leica #growingup
