Richmond Park

A few weeks have passed again without any posts. School kept me quite busy, and eventhough I had the chance to take some pictures occasionally, I had no time to upload any of them. So now I have several photos I took during the last few weeks, and will start uploading those which I took the latest.

Last Thursday we had such a nice weather, that me and one of my groupmates, Wenwei, decided to go for a small phototrip to Richmond Park. She had been there several times already, and she has become quite fond of it, so I thought it worths a visit.

The park is the largest of the Royal Parks in London. It gives home for a diverse wildlife, including red and fallow deer, woodpeckers, squirrels, rabbits, Rose-ringed parakeets, stag beetles and many other insects plus numerous ancient trees and varieties of fungi. [1].









The sky with the clouds and the contrails that all those airplanes have made (as the park is relatively close to the Heathrow airport) looked really special together with the still bald trees but already green grass.

Here is an image of a Black goose (at least a part of it), which does not tell too much about the park, and to tell to truth it is an accidental result, but somehow I really like how it turned out. Are there any souls out there who also find this picture interesting or is it just me?

  2. It seems that picture of the deer seems to be quite popular :) Although I like it as well, it's not my favourite from this bunch of pictures.

    I don´t think you would need a photography course. Your pictures are good already (at least those which you put into your album). To tell the truth I have never attended any proper photo courses, except a few lectures. Although I read some books to learn the basics, photography is more about practising, experimenting, experiencing. You just have to take lots of pictures, show them to people, listen to their opinion and draw the conclusion. (basically, that's what I'm doing right now as well :)
