V&A<\/a> last year. I guess it is understandable, as some museums and exhibitions tend to attract many people, and museums need to manage the number of people that attend an exhibition at any given time for health and safety reasons.<\/p>\nIt is also interesting that the V&A staff said to call if I was going to be late for any reason. It’s like going to the doctor or when meeting a friend. In the end, I had to call as there had been an accident on the road, which was very useful. Why? Because I was only a few minutes late and a member of staff helped me to jump the queue which was already forming outside the entrance for the next time slot!<\/p>\n
Both of them were great exhibitions, by the way. The Wildlife Photographer of the Year takes place yearly. This year, the jury had to choose from 43,000 entries, which is an amazing feat. Some of the pictures had been taken by kids up to 17 years old.<\/p>\n
The pic below is the winner in that category, taken by a 14 year-old in India. It is a gharial, a rare species of croc with her hatchlings.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Thank you for reading my very random thoughts today!<\/p>\n
