PHOTOGRAPHY: DERELICTION


Along the River Thames there are several derelict power stations. The best known is Battersea Power Station, but a couple of miles westwards there is another which is pretty cool; Lots Road Power Station in Chelsea. At the moment, it looks like it is virtually derelict, but it is currently being redeveloped. I just hope that they do not demolish the old building.

PHOTOGRAPHY: BROMPTON CEMETERY


Cemeteries are not high on my list of places to visit, but there are always exceptions to the rule. Brompton Cemetery, located in West Brompton (stuck in between the busy areas of Fulham and Earl's Court), is a lovely quiet spot. A good place for reflection in a hectic city.
