Sea view

Looking out to sea from Hove seafront - one from the archives (28 August 2010).

Leaves are starting to turn

Pembroke Crescent this morning - the weather feels as if summer is almost over and autumn is upon us.

Piers

Looking along Hove seafront in the opposite direction from Sunday's photograph; this time towards the remains of Brighton's derelict West Pier and beyond that, Brighton's Palace Pier.

Hove Lawns

Another photograph from yesterday; this time looking away from the seafront and across Hove Lawns towards Lansdowne Place.

Outside The Old Market

Opposite yesterday's lilies, outside The Old Market is a large container holding a bay tree (note the wind-blasted lower leaves caused by last winter's storms), sunflowers and nasturtiums.

White lilies growing in a dustbin

A short step across the garden from yesterday's clematis.

So colourful

The Waterloo Street Garden is so colourful this summer - this clematis is thriving against a south-facing wall.
