26 March – Boat Race

Today took place Cancer Research Boat Race where Cambridge vs Oxford universities tried to compete. To be honest, weather was at least tricky. There was sunny but 15 minutes later it started to rain. The audience was great. Most of the people I met supported Cambridge…

The race has been started in 1829 and 1927 (men & women respectively) and is one of the oldest sports competitions in the world. Seen from bridges and both sides of the river Thames….and by millions via television transmission.

The results:

Men race – today Cambridge win!

Oxford 79 – Cambridge 82

Women Race – Today Oxford win!

Oxford 30 – Cambridge 41

09 March – Blurry day and abandoned flowers

Today weather isn’t good here. Is rather cold and wet. This is good weather for picture lovers which I am. Below something from today – flowers which were thrown out and then picked up by a street cleaner… What can be better? Second life for them, isn’t it? Maybe even better, I think.

Thrown out flowers

05 March – Old Cadillac, building and something for cyclists

Today was very good photographic day. I have took some good (I hope) pictures and one of them you can find below. The rest of them I will put into Galleries soon. This car I’ve found in the London’s City. The car was parked behind the fence and seemed (thankfully) to be not “forgotten” which is great and I like when people use such machines on daily basis, really.

I also like different view of ordinary elements of surroundings. This time I’ve just moved my head up and bum! I saw this below….

Tree and buildings. Composition made by itself.

…and last picture today – my favourite one. I like this contrast and elements combined together. If you too just share it with your friends.

Funny thing 😉

February – Saturday’s cooking

Portobello Road is famous not only from its market of historic things available for selling but also from its wide cuisins which came here with immigrants from many countries. This makes this place much more valuable than typical markets because this is one of the most cosmopolitan place in London.

December 2015 – TAXI

There are such nice places where old cars aren not replaced for new ones which might be even better but they don’t their own soul. Who cares that those new are able to almost drives themselves and can get you home if you don’t love them? This one seemed be still in use.

Very old TAXI cab

August 2015 – Palace of Culture & Science

The building itself is 237 meters high and is the highest Polish building. On one of the floors has a nice swimming pool and terrace with an impressive view on capital of Poland. The building was a friend’s gift from the eastern border. Not so much liked by Polish.
