There is a squirrel perched in a small tree clinging to some branches and looking me dead in the eye.
We had a moment.

A pile of assorted scrap steel sections and structural metal profiles — including I-beams, square hollow sections, channel sections, and angle iron — stacked haphazardly in a yard or warehouse. The black and white photograph emphasises the varied textures, geometric cross-sections, and industrial character of the discarded metalwork.
Scrap metal in a yard near Lower Sydenham station this week.

Four mute swans in flight against a grey overcast sky, with bare winter trees visible along the bottom edge of the frame. The swans are arranged in a loose diagonal formation, wings fully extended mid-wingbeat, their white plumage contrasting softly against the muted background.
Here's a lucky shot of swans in flight in London's Hyde Park. Had no time to set up the camera or even focus - luckily it was already at 100mm and I'd just shot a distant scene.

Photo: a view of the reconstructed facsimile of a medieval kitchen in the restored Château de Castelnaud. At the far left shelving has been built into a wall that's been painted white. It holds various kitchenware. Grey stone arches support the ceiling. The back wall and floor are similarly stone. Along the back wall, game is hung to cure – a boar, a pheasant, several hare, some quail – next to and over a large fireplace, large enough to walk into. In the foreground is a long wooden table, displaying pottery, fruits, and vegetables. Castelnaud-la-Chapelle, France 8 September 2025 OM-1 MarkII: ƒ/2.8, 1/30, 12mm, ISO200
