I could not sleep and got up early this morning – September 1st. The sunrise at St Helen’s Wharf was awesome.
The light from the low sun caught the tops of the buildings up Bridge Street, and a cloud of water vapour spread out from Didcot B Power Station.
The sun lit up the undersides of the arches of Abingdon Bridge.
and brightened the trees as seen from the wider span of the bridge. Trees are starting to turn to their autumn colours.
St Helen’s Church and Fairlawn Wharf were lit up in contrast to the darker clouds above.
Early sunlight lit up the dewey ground and dazzled.
September is here. New beginnings. Most school children will be going back to school soon. I saw some Extinction Rebellion posters in Steventon with a picture of a tree and the slogan Build Back Better.The starker XR posters on public boxes and flower containers in Abingdon say there is a protest outside parliament today – September 1st.
What stunning photos, Backstreeter! Thankyou
Wonderful photos as ever. I heard about the XR posters…I wonder who will clear them all up?
Fabulous photos !
Congratulations
So it’s not only me that’s started waking up rather early for no apparent reason.
Lovely pics as always Backstreeter.
“Build Back Better” is a good and positive movement, as are many of the causes XR support. It is unfortunate that some of their tactics alienate a lot of people – but maybe it will take all sorts of approaches to achieve the changes in our society which are going to be needed. Interesting times…
