Ham Photos is a growing archive of photos of Ham (at the meeting of Richmond upon Thames and Kingston upon Thames in south-west London), where I have lived since 1996. It captures the small changes that are easily missed and delights in the unusual, the unexpected and the unnoticed.

Concrete island
The stretch of river between Ham House and River Lane attracts many walkers and cyclists because it is a pretty place with good access. What some of these visitors do not realise is how often the tide covers large parts of the tow path and how quickly it does this. This is the slipway at the bottom of Ham Street and just a minute or so before I took this picture I was standing on it watching the water surround me before making a last-second leap for dry land.
