Snow photos, East London, Feb 2012

Snow always makes for some good photos if you can get the exposure right.

The new Pogoda is being built in Victoria Park as part of the restoration work. It is not finished but it looks good in the snow:

Even the pigeons seem to be finding it cold:

S is for Snow

Snow creates a special atmosphere, especially in a park. In December 2010, the snow settled not only in the ground but also in the trees. With the low light of late afternoon, it looked magical.

Photo of the week - White Christmas at Lovelace House, Haggerston Estate, E8

The peacefulness of a construction site on Christmas Day provides a contrast to the usual urban bustle. This is the last remaining part of Lovelace House on Haggerston Estate, Hackney, in the snow on Christmas Day. The old blocks are being knocked down to be replaced by new blocks designed by architects PRP (Phippen Randall & Parkes), see PRP website.

Snow in Victoria Park , East London, Dec. 2010

I went for a walk in the fresh snow this afternoon and took some pictures in Victoria Park. When I posted some of them to Flickr, I had loads of views the same evening. Obviously some people stayed in and spent time on their computer today. Many of the views, over 750, came from simple searches within Flickr for "UK snow". It shows how much we care about the weather.

Topical 2010 Christmas lights from House of Fraser, Oxford St,

Lights in the form of snow flakes on the House of Fraser store on Oxford Street prove topical in the current weather. The umbrella and the boxes are part of the street decorations.

For other pictures of Christmas lights, see my 2010 Xmas pictures on Flickr.
