Curious peculiarities

Seeing strange features is somewhat an act of mindfulness.

The lockdowns of our past brought us closer to the act, for both entertainment and survival.

Unusual features are part of our everyday lives. Noticed in familiar and in the new.

They are around us and surround us and given the moment, we can see more of.

The gallery portrays moments in time I too saw something that thought of as a huh moment.

Nunhead, South East London – a wanderlust

If you’re looking for a mini escape in London, Nunhead offers the scenery and views for quiet reflection and gentle exercise.

Pitched on the hill between New Cross Gate, Dulwich and Peckham Rye, I’d recommend starting off at Telegraph Hill for breathtaking views of the City of London.

A short walk away, Nunhead cemetery offers grand Victoria architecture, in a lush green mini forest, open to all.

The oldest structures, weathered from the years, are classified as ruins and off bounds. They offer scenes from gothic eras, alike those filmed in Highgate cemetery for Dracula.

There’s a steep incline for a cardio friendly circular walk, offering many photogenic moments.

The thick foliage create an ideal temperature in autumn and summer.

The easiest way to get there from central London, is to get to New Cross Gate and walk up the hill
