Last time I saw Sam Ryder was on TV singing with Queen and Foo Fighters at Wembley Stadium. This afternoon the 'Spaceman' was busking in Carnaby Street. Same energy. Same incredible voice.

A few photos of this morning's lunar occultation of Mars. I nearly forgot to get up early to see this and took these photos from the bedroom window.

Nice to see the Christmas angels back in Regent Street again. They still look impressive and elegant as they swoop along above the Christmas shoppers.

Bird, watching...
I almost walked past this kestrel that was keeping a good look on its surroundings from the top of a lamp post.

A lunar contrunktion occurs when rays from the Sun are reflected off the Moon's surface, refracted by the Earth's atmosphere and observed through a tree. No special equipment is required to observe this phenomenon (apart from a moon and a tree with a big hole in it).

A great show by Sam Kelly's Station House at the Sound Lounge in Sutton last night. A warm blend of blues, jazz, funk and a lot of soul.

As the Artemis mission approaches The Moon to take a closer look, I'm wondering what the view must be like from The Shard in London?

Epsom Downs looks like a sea of people (and horses) when there's horse-racing taking place.
The rest of the time it's a calm place to explore and take in the views. Although it's a fair-way from Central London there are great views of the city from the top of the golf course.
It's also a great place to take a picnic on a hot summer's evening and watch the sunset.
