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.

High waters
The river has been high for long periods recently and elsewhere (e.g. Mortlake) I have had to take detours when walking along Thames Path. Locally the best place to observe the swollen river has been Teddington Footbridge.
The most obvious sign of the height of the water is that the Skiff Lock (on the far left) has all but disappeared under the water.
On the Teggigton side the water has crept up toward The Anglers making the bridge look even more impressive than usual.
