Pictures taken with Nikon P7700 on its first trip out.  The lens cap failed, but otherwise it behaved well.

Steve, Peter & Helen walked from Forest Hill to Dulwich Village and back on 27th January 2013.   We saw the sun...

We had a long wait on the platform at Kentish Town due to a misjudgement.

Peter went into the Horniman and took some pictures though it was rather too dark in there.   http://www.pjspictures.me.uk/!.PJP_Dulwich.htm   

The Conservatory was very appealing to all the photographers being very well-maintained and containing much interesting detail.   http://www.horniman.ac.uk/
