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
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
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

On my way into work this morning I noticed that there had been some pretty substantial rain – very large pools of water across the road. I suspect this had caught out the farmer as he was combining the barley – the combine harvester was here when I arrived at
This wasn’t the shot I wanted today – I found a great folly that I photographed, but because of the season (leaves, leaves and more leaves) I couldn’t get the angle to show you it was a folly. Never mind, just up the road was this field with the lonely
Another shot from Brantham, the village I now work from. I carried on down the farmers track towards the River Stour – I was hoping I could get onto the coastline, alas, whilst I could get within about 800yds there was no obvious way through and I needed to head
