Nothing visual says “tropical” more directly than flowering trees. These are a few from St. Gilles les Bains, on the east of the Indian Ocean island of La Réunion. And of course some tropical palm trees.
The Greta is a formidable river as it enters its gorge upstream from Keswick. The K2T Keswick Railway Footpath follows the river downstream from Threlkeld. This is the view from Low Pearson’s Bridge with meltwater and a day’s rain fuelling the flow.
More than a few years since I first walked this route; now the Greta is a neighbour and I cross it and enjoy the varying moods of the river when I’m walking to the supermarket in Keswick.

Always a pleasure to walk along Seaford beach front in fine weather. The traditional beach huts have been photographed many times. My photo this time is about textures as well as colours.
Street photography is almost an integral part of the Brighton Lanes experience: anyone can be prey to camera groups on the prowl most weekends. If you can’t beat them, join them! Here are a few street snaps from the first Saturday of 2026.
The gardens of Brighton’s Royal Pavilion, the seaside pleasure palace of King George IV (reigned 1820-30), which was finished by architect John Nash; the Pavilion was later enjoyed by his successors William IV, then Queen Victoria.
