Stark Shadow

It was such a gorgeous sunny morning, so lovely after all the rain, I decided to walk along the tow path from Teddington to Richmond, my friend Emma came along too, we found a grotto with a tunnel under the road to the gorgeous Buccleuch Gardens, I was struck by the starkness of this unusual shadow coming back to the grotto underpass and the colours on the walls from the recent heavy rain.
Emma took me to The Hollyhock cafe, I've never seen it before! It was lovely with an amazing terrace and view of the park and river!

Back home for paperwork, lunch and songwriting!
