Millennium Bridge and Thames
Once more I clambered down onto the north bank of the Thames to take
a shot I’ve taken (and posted) several times before. The "beach" may be
grimy and slimy, but there is something very calm and serene about
being just 20 feet away and below crowds of people who are none the
wiser. Perhaps it is related to the urge young children have to hide in
cupboards and under stairs. Who knows.
On the shore itself you find hundreds, if not thousands, of
pieces of broken pottery. I’ve scanned a small piece for example.
Nothing looks particularly ancient, but every year people find Roman
relics within the bounds of the frame of this photograph.
