Brian Haw exercising his right to free speech outside Parliament
A detail of a drawing given to me by my friend Elahe Heidari
Or perhaps I could look at what I can see for free near where I live. Above is the mediaeval church of St Andrews in Hornchurch
Or perhaps enjoy the rare black poplars on the Chase in Dagenham
Or walk along the banks of the Rom near the Chase.
Free is what you make it

The best things in life really are free.
ReplyDeleteWhat a thought provoking article, great shots too.
ReplyDeleteI am late with my post, but here hoping you can still take a peek on my FREE stuff.
I love your nature shots, Jams, especially the black and white. We need not go very far to see nature's beauty -- it's all right there in front of us, if we only take time to look.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend.
