A black and white film journey through London and the English countryside.

We descended upon London, totally embracing being tourists – drinking London’s pride ale, eating fish & chips, visiting Westminster Abbey and the London Tower. We walked through Hyde Park in the rain and looked in awe at the crown jewels. We looked out over the vista of an English countryside, quiet and lush in the early morning mist at Windsor Castle, before turning back the hands of time to the wonders of Stonehenge. We laughed over a cup of tea at Oxford and watched the students walk by with our future in their hands. The beautiful streets, so proud, the people so elegant, I’ll always remember London as lovely as the classical music playing at Dean Street over the sound of soft falling rain.

  1. Thank you for sharing such lovely photographs. I often browse through your photographs when I am having a not so good day at work. Your photos are therapeutic and quickly take me to my happy place. You inspire me to pick up my camera and document all the beauty in the world and for this I thank you and Kevin

  3. Ah, you visited Oriel College. My husband attended that college and we were there 2 weeks ago to take wedding photos after our ceremony in The Bodleian Library. Gorgeous photos, as always.

  6. Thanks for sharing this! One day when you visit the UK again, you must come up North and see more of the gorgeous countryside the UK has to offer. I live in Whitby in North Yorkshire and it is just so beautiful. I do love to visit London regularly with my job though, it is such an enticing city and I have so many friends there.
    Love Annabel xx

  9. Wonderful! Love the black and white images-perfect for conveying the atmosphere and mood of London-I’ve never been but it is definitely tops on my “trip to Europe” list…along with Paris and Italy, of course! 🙂
