'Eel Pie' is an island in the River Thames, Twickenham...back in the 1960s it was a venue for some of the more psychdelic musicians such as Arthur Brown Jr. In my dissolute youth it often seemed as wobbly as this reflection :-)

Sam,

Can I have some of that "substance" for my M8

Lovely image and colour

That's a beautifully seen scene there Sam, rendered perfectly.

Sam,

a cool shot

dhsimmonds · 02/18/07, 06:36 PM

Nice shot Sam, thanks for sharing it with us.

Sam, there was a documentary on Radio 4 a about the island and the music couple of weeks ago on a Sunday afternoon. Don't know if you heard it, but it might still be available as part of their listen again facility.

Great shot of the reflection. It's probably just how you remembered it ;-)

Steve - thanx for the heads-up re the R4 programme...I'll see if they still have it on listen-again, and then i can (judiciously) relive my youth :-)

Wow, man, it's like, unreal, man........

Very nice capture - you got a nice blue sky, too, which makes the image work best, I think.

Very amusing tale, wonderful shot.

samwells · 02/19/07, 09:47 PM
