Inevitably, #Walktober ended in a downpour - but at least this #duck is enjoying the #rain! (#StreetArt from #JamesStraffon)
And I've loved the month of evening & urban #walks—keeping my legs moving through dark of the year
Thanks @GoJauntly for the idea & #CityStrides for location inspiration!#CityStrides can be a great way to find those bits of #London I can easily to get to, yet habit and pinch-points keep me away. But tools can be the most dangerous masters – I need to resist the temptation to stare at the map too much, keep seeing the world around me.

Seen at the end of another long city #walktober wander, #Arsenal station's corridors always feel a mixture of terrifying and strangely hilarious (as I only visit when it's pretty empty)

On Wednesday I walked Aldgate to Seven Sisters, (visiting in between) close to a straight line. Someone said "Not a very pretty road though?" But watching how much #London changed around me, seeing the #StreetArt of #JimVision, #Loretto & others— that was #beautiful

You're walking through an alleyway when suddenly…a #tree leans over the fence? No, not a tree – a #dragon with wooden flesh. She asks you where her forest grove has gone—only fell asleep for a century or so. Can you help her find it?

Continuing the #halloween theme - when I stared into the darkness on a night-walk near Clissold… something stared back!

How many #rivers shall I #walktober down? The answer shall always be "Another, ANOTHER!" On Sunday, it was the Duke of Northumberland - a man-made mill-stream, yet still #beautiful for that. (1/2)

A wise philosopher* said "The way I see it, if you want the #rainbow, you gotta put up with the #rain!" And on this #walktober wander through many woods just outside the M25 yesterday with @Metwalkers we were graced with both (and much more beauty I'll share later).
*It was #DollyParton

I love exploring #London for its eternal capacity to surprise—like when I #walktober down a dead-end mews to see what's there… and it's a #MorrisMinor hearse!
I assume film prop, but looking up 'Charles Stephens' I find they're #Wirral funeral directors, spot the hearse is in a couple of their photos online - and due to the all-hours nature of their work, end up having a lovely chat with them at about 11pm!

As I again #Walktober the streets of #Islington keeping an eye out for foxes in the ever-darker evenings, I hear an defiant mew - "I am the Night! Me! 😼"

The #foxes of #Islington would rather I just #walktober onwards, and leave them with the privacy necessary to bothering their neighbours by yowling in the dark!

Yesterday, back with my usual group – the @Metwalkers (I Walktober'd about 40 miles this weekend! 😳) and we saw just how much #countryside is within easy reach of #Overground lines!
Along with portentous #alpacas and a #heron out standing in its field (in the #rain, but he don't care).

Due to a cancelled walk, I spent yesterday #walking up and down hills with the "Thousand Foot" group in #Surrey and along the #NorthDownsWay, rather than my usual Ramblers lot. Good exercise and a lot of interesting things to see!

If the #Barbican were a #DnD megadungeon you level up at least twice going through (if??) - then what would be the boss-monster at the top of the Shakespeare tower?

Sometimes the best sights come at the start of the #walk - riding the train one stop more than I needed to yesterday meant I walked past these weird and wonderful #sculptures at Denmark Hill I think organised by the #Camberwell Society.

Don't look at the darkness.
Don't look at the #darkness.
It can't eat any more of me
If I don't look at the darkness -

I saw many things whilst walking the hills and canal from Tring to Berkhampstead yesterday.
But this is what stood out most

#FacesInPlaces - and misty legs, floating arms. I know we're a few weeks off #Halloween, but it was getting a bit spooky as the @Metwalkers wandered around #Chelsea yesterday

With the spring #tide, the banks doth floweth over and it becomes #Thames upon #Richmond. But the local animals are pretty used to that by now!

Of course, my #Walktober wanders aren't always A to B - sometimes I walk around a place. Sunday was #LondonZoo with especial attention to the #reptile house, as I was watching Antony & Cleopatra that evening.

When the #moon took a lover in posh Belgravia, she loved to talk with him all night long.
The neighbours hated it - all 'statutory nuisance' this and 'unreasonably and substantially interfere with the use or enjoyment' that.
"Ahhh, but you see" said he "Ancient lights."(Also, a thank you to the couple who glanced down this alley and gasped to see such a clear and low moon - I so often see things thanks to the eyes of others.)

My #walktober wander yesterday took me from Harrow on the Hill to Stanmore, via the tomb where #Byron lay for inspiration, and onto Bentley Priory #natureReserve, with its longhorns and #deer.

One of the ideas behind #Walktober is keeping on #walking as the nights get darker, colder, wetter.
I love a nightwalk, and don't feel the cold that much (there's privledge there, I know).
But it's nice to be reminded to go see the darkness 🖤#NightPhotography #fox #NaturePhotography #London #photography

#London is a city perpetually creating itself out of chaos. A.S. Byatt (possibly)
There's always something… no, a lot of different somethings going on, all at once - and my #Walktober wanders show me a lot.
Here, a protest behind me and a closed main road ahead.

It's #Walktober so I'm doing a #walk every day, and sharing what I see.
It's always a whirligig of interesting sights, like the #StreetArt last night (artist unknown). Along with somewhere in the region of fifteen foxes!

"What the fuck? What is this even for??" Where the Old Bailey goes into recess.
(It's probably a vehicle entrance later bricked up, perhaps for security reasons, left as a smokers alcove, then gated off when being awful to the #homeless became a priority.)
