Another gorgeous day a great day to take photographs but unfortunately i will be working in the world of Toyota. The plan is to go to Blackheath tommorow and do a shoot. I was there a few weeks ago trying to take photos owhen the London marathon kicked off from there but the rain was a big obstacle and that shoot had to be abandoned. I did get some photo's of the air balloon's which i will post when i get a quiet moment.
The focal point of Blackheath is the Centre known as the village. Blackheath got its name from the heath being used as a 14th century burial ground.
A bit of interesting information about Blackheath was the fact that a gentleman by the name of Montague John Druitt actually lived in Blackheath and he was thought to have commited all the Jack the Ripper murders. He was found floating in the Thames and thought to have committed suicide, no other murders were committed after his death. Isn't it funny that no one really mentions this man when the topic of Jack the Ripper comes up ? Anyway he used to live at number 9 Eliot Place so i will be finding that address if it still exists and taking photographs for anyone out there who's interested.
I will also get some shots of the All Saint's Parish Church. It's going to be a lovely weekend enjoy every minute of it.
