I've chosen photos of 2 London parks - there are so many parks, its a very green city. In some ways at least.
One of my favourites is St James' Park, close to Westminster and Trafalgar Square:
As well as the wildlife, there is an allotment which began as a "Dig for Victory" garden in 2007, 70 years after the 2nd world war campaign in Britain - and which is continuing with an emphasis on sustainability, recycling, promotion of "grow your own" and allotments.
Another favourite and the most familiar is Greenwich Park, which I cycle/walk through on my route to and from work regularly, in all seasons...
Your pictures are divine! :) I love London and looking at these photos made me want to book a flight.... :D
ReplyDeleteYou've caught the atmosphere of these London parks, brilliantly.
ReplyDeleteSome years ago, whilst staying at Queen Mary's, I walked along the Regent's Canal with a group of friends. We took a stroll to Victoria Park. Another lovely surprise.

ReplyDeleteGorgeous! it's so hot here that the snow picture was my favorite! ha.
ReplyDeleteStunning...Makes me want to see London again...It's sweltering here, so I'm envious of your park on a snowy day.
ReplyDeletewow....stunning photos ....my socks are knocked off.
ReplyDeleteThe light in the first one is wonderful. And I loved your addition of the scrabbling pigeons - what is a park without pigeons, eh?!
ReplyDeleteFabulous photos Lettuce I particulary like the last three. :)
ReplyDeleteThe pictures with sky background are my favorites. And that one with the winter scene makes me feel so out of place, since we are the middle of a heat wave here.
ReplyDeletelove the vegetable gardens and the last two images the best.

Well, now you've done it, Letty. You went & made a liar of me. I just told someone yesterday that I couldn't think of anything essential that I missed, really. Not having visited in so long. So there are the St. James pix.
ReplyDeleteSniff...

ReplyDeleteAh London beats us hands down for lovely parks in urban space, you'd never know you're in a cit in St James. Lovely shots.
