Cold Day | Warm Reception

I was out in West Dulwich the other day as I had hoped to go to the Norman Rockwell exhibition, unfortunately the Picture Gallery was closed as Tuesday was a bank holiday. So instead of turning about and going straight home I took a walk with my friend and camera to the local park.

Dulwich Park was quite busy considering how cold it was, quite a few young families with children riding tricycles, some runners jogging on what looked like a sand path for horses and dog walkers were ignoring the polite notices that asked them to keep their dogs on short leads. 

As I knelt down to take this photo an older couple who had seen me failing to take photos of birds in flight earlier stopped to ask if I had taken any good shots, I hadn't and told them as much. They were kind enough to suggest that the view and light through the rushes around the pond in the park might make a good and 'cold' photo. 

Here's a view of the park which I think is as beautiful as the people there are friendly. I hope you enjoy it.
