A Snowy Sunday at Ally Pally





Wrapped up in hat, gloves, scarf, wellies, and as many layers as I could possibly fit under my duvet-style coat, I braved the cold to visit a snow covered Alexandra Palace. I was not alone. The park was packed with people sledging and having snowball fights. Meanwhile the Ally Pally deers gathered together to watch all the snow fuelled mayhem. I hope you enjoy these wintery images from yesterday.

An 80s Arcade Style Transformation for Truman Brewery, Brick Lane




During a freezing cold Saturday evening, I popped down to Brick Lane to visit Rough Trade Records, and was greeted by an array of 80’s arcade style props in the Truman Brewery! The pixellated installation, which was only there for the duration of 11-13 January, was created by the sculpture Aden Hynes to promote the Disney film Wreck-It Ralph. Sadly I didn’t have my camera with me! Ahhhhh! But I couldn’t resist snapping away on my phone anyway. Here are some of the images of Hynes sculptures, and also of the regular sights you can find at the Truman Brewary.

Winter Wonderland





If you are already missing Christmas here are some festive images from Winter Wonderland for you to take a peek at whilst tucking into your Boxing Day turkey sandwiches. If you are trying to recover from a fun but hectic Christmas time - or if like me you are unfortunately just trying to recover from the lurgy :-( - please sit back, relax and meet the giant Santa, candy floss stalls, and fun fair rides of Hyde Park’s Winter Wonderland. I hope you had a smashing Christmas Day, but if you are still craving more Christmas celebrations it’s not too late to pay Winter Wonderland a visit as it's open till 6th Jan.













































Many thanks for visiting my photoblog during 2012. I really do appreciate it. Wishing you a truly fantastic 2013 :-)
