29/52 The American Cemetery, Madingley

The Bishops Stortford Camera Club visited the American Cemetery just outside Cambridge as part of their photowalk around Cambridge (more of that to follow over at Flitch Photography). This was quite a place to visit – very moving – and a real reminder that wars kill people. Fight war, not

Oops. somewhere along the line I missed posting week 28’s photo…not sure how that happened! So, the Bishops Stortford Camera Club had an opportunity to get to the top of the spire of St Michael’s Church in Bishops Stortford. Getting up there meant a long spiral stone staircasr to the

27/52 Bearded Dragon, Linton Zoo

So the Photographers Day at Linton Zoo arrived and what a scorcher it was. Now, you may think that a lovely hot sunny day is ideal for getting amongst the animals and getting some lovely pictures…well, it is better than if it was tipping it down with rain! However, all

26/52 A Gate to Nowhere

I took a walk around Great Dunmow today and found this road I had not been down before. It lead to a rather impressive Georgian Manor house that I didn’t know existed on the way was this scene. Walking around the countryside you do see quite a few of these

24/52 Look Out, It’s The Mob

I love this picture, OK? Mooching around Rowney Woods the wife and I came across this band of hoodlums waiting to set upon any unwary walkers, they certainly spotted us. I particularly like the male in the middle – he has such a great expression on his face…wonder if I

23/52 Cotton Top Tamarin

Do you ever watch Monkey World? I must admit, I do enjoy the antics of all the chimps there, but I do have a soft spot for the Cotton Top Tamarin’s, so I was delighted to find some at Linton Zoo in Cambridgeshire. Linton Zoo takes in rare and abandoned animals

21/52 Noooo Come Back

Taken in the back garden, this Starling fledgling was not impressed to see mother leaving! I’ve been getting a lot of shots of the garden birds recenty having invested in a tele-converter…which basically means I can get twice as close to the birds with my camera even though I’m stiil
