and a great lunch at the Queen’s Head.
Let me share a lovely experience I had on a chilly yet sunny day in January.
I headed out to Uxbridge to get my CB125F cleaned and then onto Little Marlow, a charming village I discovered during my research for places to visit and showcase in 2024.
Intrigued to try out a new way of shooting and recording audio, I decided to take a ride to Little Marlow, and I am so glad that I did because it was an amazing experience.
The village is a little gem, and everyone there is incredibly proud of it.
It has two fantastic pubs, the Queen’s Head and the King’s Head, which are worth a visit.
Since I prefer to travel via A roads in my PhotoMoto videos, I took the southern route via Burnham as I was in Uxbridge getting the bike cleaned.
On my way back, I took the Google Maps preferred route via Denham & Beaconsfield, which I plan to use again when I return in Spring.
When I arrived, I felt a bit hungry, so I stopped for lunch at the Queen’s Head.
I judge a pub based on how quickly I feel at home, and I have to say, the initial unease I feel upon entering many pubs quickly dissipated.
I was greeted warmly and ordered, what was, a delicious cappuccino.
The specials board had me drooling over its offerings, and I ended up ordering a mouth-watering steak sandwich.
As you’ll see in the video, the sun quickly shifted away from the photographic targets I had in mind, which included the red phone box, church, and Queens Head Pub, but that didn’t dampen my spirits.
I plan to return in February after the snow has come and gone.
I can’t wait to capture the beauty of the village on film, including its lake, the Thames, both pubs and many other wonderful things.
I took two stunning shots of the church with the sun peeking from behind, and I will post the images here once I’ve developed the roll of 120.
The lady behind the bar and a chap I met in the restroom, stop giggling at the back, provided me with a lot of information and inspiration to revisit and capture this gorgeous village on film.
That’s it for now.
