Kenwood and a Surprisingly nice Sunset
Sunday 29th January 2023
A much longer than usual perambulation on the heath this afternoon, including a foray up to Kenwood House to try and find some snowdrops, and a surprisingly nice sunset seen from atop Parliament Hill.

Quite busy atop Parliament Hill this afternoon.

I went for a much longer wander than usual, up to Kenwood Estate, in order to search for snowdrops. I was focusing on taking video while I was there so didn't actually take any photos of that bit of the walk. Instead here's the odd bus shelter type thing on the edge of the Kenwood Estate.

I returned to more familiar parts of the heath after my foray up to Kenwood. This is another bottle from Huntsworth Wines, and rather more extravagant than the bargain basement Burgundy which had originally drawn me to that shop. This was really excellent - concentrated, elegant, sophisticated, everything I want in a Gevrey Chambertin.

The sun starting to think about setting.

Nice fiery glimpse of the sun through the trees.

16:31:07
I returned to the top of Parliament Hill for the main event as I was getting a sense it might be quite a good sunset.

The sky had cleared a bit as the sun was setting so it was ever changing and interesting.

The moon in the sky now.

The sunset still making an effort!
