Blimey. That must have been there since the late 80s/early 90s!

I'm scaling all my photos down to sensible sizes, which can take up to 30 seconds per image, but other people are clearly too busy for that
Anyway, water theme today:
At the top there is the National Water Sports Centre, a vast expanse of boat-related facilities including a 2km rowing lake and a white water kayaking course. While the actual boat stuff is mothballed it has all been left open to the public to wander round and enjoy the many car-free footpaths, water features and nature reserves.

One on one? You're crazy.
You need some state sanctioned brick throwing for the drivel.View attachment 208372

A window of drivel. The first line - cut off in this pic - says something about 'If you're wondering what Brexit is all about.'
Tempting, but I settled for derisive laughter instead!

Cheers. It's a Sony HX350, I've had it about 8 months (bought on a whim in Alnwick) - I think most smartphones with HDR should take similar (better?) pictures at close up, it's only real advantage is the optical zoom for distance shots. I have really enjoyed it though, probably the biggest plus is that it 'forces' me to walk slower, look much harder at the world around me and notice much more. That's been a real joy, proper journey of discovery stuff....

Yes, my kid's new phone takes much better pics than mine (not sure what make, not my department, I don't buy these things!), mine's a bit rubbish for close ups. I have got my proper camera out, and just started using it again (well two, one's a compact Sony Coolpic I think, powerful zoom, the other's a digital SLR, again can't remember the make, must check), I'll get round to posting some pics I take with them... eventually. I need to be walking alone to focus on taking 'better' pics, and mostly I'm not. Still happy enough with what my phone takes though.

I love the detail in small stuff the best I think. It is a joy

Yeah, absolutely - dew drops on petals with reflections showing is fab, as you say, proper joyous...

Yup I got a camera with a fancy zoom for the same reasons as kebabking. It also allows you to pick out and frame one interesting detail in an otherwise dull scene.
Sometimes of course you just end up staring at a distant heron for half an hour waiting for it to do something, which is what I did yesterday.

I know most of your pics so well marty21 - got relatives off the bottom of Forest Rd, partner's son used to live off the top of Forest Rd, done many walks in the marshes...and have been to more than one free party nr Tottenham lock.

It's changing dramatically, must be about a dozen or so new tower blocks being built between Tottenham Lock and Blackhorse Rd station. I also took a short detour today into Paddock Community Gardens , seems a favoured destination for the professional drinkers , there some benches in a little circular clearing with plenty of #cans around them.
