104/366 Guarded

I returned to the scene of my recent soaking today, the weather was substantially better and I was to spend a happy hour marching up and down the Stort Navigation in my lunch hour. This picture is of an arable field patrolled by some headless scarecrows…apparently the Canada Geese aren’t

103/366 Sunset Over Doctors Pond, Great Dunmow

It’s been another filthy day today. There was a great hail storm followed by a torrential downpour that flooded all the roads on my way home. By the time I got home though the clouds were just breaking open and we got this sunset over Doctors Pond.

The Stort Navigation, Roydon
2012 - 366 Project

102/366 …and the rain fell.

I was a bit stupid today. I could see, very clearly that there was rain about, but there was also some great dramatic clouds around, so off I trotted at lunchtime down the River Stort Navigation. No coat, no brolly, no brains 😉 This shot is about 20 minutes walk

098/366 The Clouds Rush In

We took a long walk across The Rodings in Essex today. This is a mainly arable farming area but has some nice woods and the Roding River to break the monotony. This picture pretty much sums up the weather all afternoon…heavy ominous cloud cover. Still it didn’t rain on us

097/366 Needs dusting!

We’ve had this electronic keyboard for about 14 years now. It got used for about 6 months and then was put on top of the wardrobe…not so much forgotten, but never used. I have in mind a specific photograph for this which will no doubt appear in due course, but
