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.

Grey garden
I quite like what they have done to this house in Dysart Avenue with the clear finish to the house and the dark grey of the porch and fences. The sea of light grey gravel is less successful and draws attention to the unglamorous drain cover.
All that is left of the proper garden is a thin line on the far side, and that hides a treat.
Hidden in the border are two moving metal sculptures which work well as works of art and may also be turbines for the garden lights close to them.
