50 year old slides down fireman's pole at East London zoo


The East London zoo has a lovely playground for children of all ages.  In this zoo playground photo, Tony shows that he can still slide down a fireman's pole too.  Later, he even showed the boys how to climb up a fireman's pole.  The playground at the East London zoo is a great place for parents to relax with a snack or cooldrink from the zoo kiosk (if they're not also trying out the playground equipment) while the children get rid of a little more energy after having already seen all the animals.  The zoo is also a great venue for children's birthday parties.

Rusty old chain


The wall of an outbuilding at the boys school had a built in metal pole, with a piece of rusty old chain hanging from it, which was presumably used to lock a no longer in existence gate. The wall, chain and pole seemed to be a good study for texture and composition etc. however, the colour just didn't do anything for me, so I cropped it, and changed the colours.
