Ipswich River

On the third day Don led us on a canoe trip. The boats were rented from Foote Brothers Canoes. The plan was to paddle past three bridges. The water level was low and we only made it past two bridges because downed trees blocked our passage.

Essex River

An afternoon Essex River Cruise after the whale watch followed by a meal at Woodman’s. More lobster for me.

Thames Barges

I made a special trip to Bermondsey Wall and the River Neckinger, that flows into the south bank of the Thames River, to photograph a group of Thames Barges moored there with Tower Bridge in the background. January 1, 2016 was a gray rainy winter day — perfect to capture the dark mood I wanted.
