Whitstable (Part 1)
Went to Whitstable to do some photography and try and clear my head. Mixed success on both counts.
Design Museum Visit
Well, yesterday I treated myself to a trip to London (birthday treat!), and visited the Design Museum at their new digs in Kensington. They are now located at what used to be The Commonwealth Institute - a place I actually visited an incredibly long time ago, as a child.
I also visited the Serpentine Sackler Gallery where there is an exhibit of Zaha Hadid’s early works. They are thoroughly fascinating. It was also very cool to see so many images of The Peak (Hong Kong) - another place I was fortunate to visit as a child, although at the time I did not (nor have any reason to) know who had designed it.
I’m trying to stitch together a night-time panorama of the north bank of the Thames from near the OXO tower, but the exposure balance was wrong on the first attempt. I’ll put it up if and when I fix it.
