LNPN Bushy Park Outing BATTERSEA OUTING 12pm, 9th November Victoria Station Firstly, apologies: this outing will be taking place on the 9th, not the 3rd as I had mistakenly written last week. A bit more about it: we will be meeting at Victoria Station at 12pm before walking towards Battersea Park with a few spots to shoot at along the way. After walking around the park, we will see what the bridges have to offer before, likely after dusk, head to the power station.
