Apparently you can take the archaeologist out of the field, but you can’t take the field out of the archaeologist. While wandering down to the short of the Thames near Tower Bridge, I discovered several bones amidst the gravel: a vertebra or two, bits of some long bones I couldn’t ID. I have no idea what they were from, though (because I am the sort of person I am) it did cross my mind that they were of vaguely the right size to be human. Anyway, although I rarely “stage” my shots, in this case I piled the bones up in an artistic manner and took this photo. Like you do.

Oh hey, I live along the river from there, just by a set of public steps down to the foreshore. It is splendid for finding miscellaneous things, and yes, aging bones :)
