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.

Another fallen tree
It's a sign of unstoppable change when a tree falls. It marks the passage of time and reminds us that we can take even beautiful things for granted when they have been there for so long. You only know what you've got when it's gone, as they say.
Somebody was alert to the fall and the top of the tree was trimmed quickly to reopen the path. So far so good but now somebody else needs to plant some new trees to fill the gaps left by this one and the others that have fallen in the cause of nature.
