220/365v2 The Calm Before the Storm

The Friday morning of the Rebellion festival in Blackpool found me down on the front looking for pictures for my 365…this has become something of a tradition when I go to this festival – up for breakfast at 9.00am and then a wander around Blackpool before returning to the Winter

219/365v2 Johnny Rioux of the Street Dogs

I’ve been away for a few days at the Rebellion Festival in Blackpool with my brother. We go most years and see a large number of bands over 4 days and drink far too much lager…it’s great! We arrived Thursday evening and one of the highlights was a performance by

218/365v2 Viewing the Moon

Something simple today after quite a few busy HDR and macro shots. A silhouette of some of the houses on my street with the moon coming up behind them.

217/365v2 Dunmow High Street and the Old Town Hall

A very busy (but successful) day saw me work through lunch so when I get home I didn’t have a picture to share. Fortunately a walk to the Co-Op for some milk was required and I got this shot of the Great Dunmow high street. I may be wrong, but

216/365v2 The River Stour at Flatford Mill

I think I probably now hold the record for the quickest visit to Flatford Mill – a very quick 10 minutes at lunchtime saw me dash in, grab a few shots and dash back out again, much to the bemusement of the lady on the gate. From my very quick

215/365v2 Dragonfly Day

I have never seen so many dragonflies in Rowney Woods as I saw today…literally hundreds of hawkers flying around, particularly over the fields of barley near the entrance to the woods. The hawkers were far too busy to settle so I had to content myself with this female Common Darter

214/365v2 Where’s Me Onions?

I popped out to the Post Office in Dunmow this morning and came across this bicycle parked up against this leaning post (why does everything lean in Dunmow?). I was very annoyed with myself as I didn’t (very unusually) have any camera gear with me at all…not even my phone.

The Royal Hospital School, Holbrook, Suffolk
2014 - 365 Project

213/365v2 The Royal Hospital School

Two villages down from the office is the village of Holbrook and The Royal Hospital School. The tower you can see here dominates the skyline for a good distance…what you can’t see here is that this is the centre of the school which radiates left and right for hundreds of

The Remnants of the Harvest

212/365v2 The Remnants of the Harvest

This was originally called The Harvest, then my wife pointed out that actually, this was what was left after the harvest has taken place… I’ve been driving past this field looking at these straw bales for a couple of weeks now. Today I was early enough to jump out of

Coastal Path

211/365v2 Coastal Path

I took a walk down to the River Stour this lunchtime as I could see the tide was in – this area is much more attractive when the tide is in 😉 This is the coastal path (that the farmer has very kindly cut back) towards Manningtree. It was a
