  • A Puma helicopter (one of a pair) takes-off from Ruskin Park at 10.50pm, on 7th March 2017, in the London borough of Lambeth, England. Pumas in ones or twos occasionally land for a few minutes with engines running before departing again for other destinations. It's believed these landings help train flight crews for future evacuation of VIPs in times of emergency using open space locations like public parks. On this occasion, the two aircraft landed with lights off (so perhaps using night-vision) in the darkness.

  • On the day that Londoners are being told to reduce physical activity on Friday due to pollution across the capital, distant skyscrapers at Nine Elms are seen behind Edwardian homes in Lambeth, on 14th January 2022, in London, England. The government has advised older people and those with lung or heart issues to avoid strenuous activity altogether. The poor air quality is the result of an intense area of high pressure covering western Europe. The associated lack of air movement means emissions from vehicles and other pollutants are not blown away as they usually would be.
