Natural History Museum, London - December 2022

After a really wet November it was good to join the U3A coach trip to London on the 1st December.  Each year in December the Natural History Museum hosts the Wildlife Photographer of the Year Exhibition.  The exhibition did not disappoint.  Sadly I was not able to take photographs inside the exhibition, but you can see the exhibits here.

We had time after lunch to visit the Victoria & Albert Museum next door.  Angie and I had a look around the fashion through the ages exhibit and then a look around the shop - always interesting items for sale here.

Back at the Natural History Museum, we spent some time taking photos in the huge entrance hall, and before making our way back to board the coach for home, we made a short detour along a side street for a spot of street photography.
