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.

Flowers on Ham Common
Ham Common has been poorly managed for years and over mowing has been a part of that so it is good to see that large patches of flowers have been allowed to bloom this year. From a distance they look like little more than smudges on the grass.
A closer look reveals that the smudges are clumps of small flowers
An even closer look reveals that those flowers are Red Sorrel.
