A local Tooting resident is aiming to take a photo of the same avenue down Tooting Bec Common every week for a year.

The Instagram project began for the Tooting mum of four after she noticed how 'bare' the avenue looked on the school run.

She told Nub News: " Waiting to collect my youngest from school one day the Avenue looked so bare, but I was also aware of how much it changes in Autumn, so decided to document it from the same spot, same time, every Monday, for a year."

The project, while admittedly a small passion project, has been received positively from local residents - experiencing a section of Tooting Common in a different way.

Every photo uploaded is raw and organic, the resident continued: "Even from week to week there is a change that I didn't really notice in such detail before.

"I'm not filtering it, not editing, it's an identical snapshot in everything apart from a new week each time.

"I think for me, the changes that happen, even though we've kind of stood still for the past year, make me smile, and realise that nature always does its best, whatever we throw at it.

"We need to appreciate what we have more, not what we want."

You can view the project on Instagram at @oneavenueoneyear.
