This evening we had our weekly camera club evening out and we visited Thaxted. This is a shot of the parish Church there from the back. We were extremely lucky as just a few miles down the road there was torential rain, but it missed us completely, unfortunately, so did
Yes, it’s that tree again, but I haven’t shared a picture of it for nearly 3 months, becasue it doesn’t look very good with leaves on it! The beauty of this tree are all the capillary like branches it has reaching to the sky – the leaves hide that too
My usual route on my morning walk and this scene had the addition of a large flock of sheep who have joined the usual bullocks that call this meadow home…along with a pair of grey heron the medow is starting to get quite crowded. Of course, there’s my favourite tree
We’ve had the second batch of ducklings appear over the last week or so (you can see a whole barrel load here). So here’s one of the new batch – there is now an awful load of waterfowl on Doctors Pond now, and the Mallard Ducks, Canadian Geese and Moorhens
I walk past this Toy Shop on my walk in the morning and I’ve photographed it a lot, but mainly on film, in the past. Today I had my macro lens on the camera and I got this shot, which is by far my favourite of all the shots I’ve
For those keeping count we’ve had an other post number re-jig. Turns out we have 2 Day 155s (Day 1 and Day 2)! So, I’ve jumped a number here to get us back on track. I have no idea why I find this quite so tricky! Today’s post is taken
We went for a walf through the rather lovely Hockley Woods today. Just outside Southend, it’s always surprising where you can find Sites of Special Scientific Interest, which this is one of. There were butterflies galore and I was rather kicking myself that I had left the macro lens in
We always get poppies growing on the roadside on Bigods Lane. I wasn’t sure we would see them this year as the farmer has been cutting the grass verges regularly. Not only that, but one area where they usually grow had been turned into an emergency path during some flooding
The second (you can see the first here) shot from/of the High Street in Great Dunmow. I’ve taken occasional shots of the High Street over the years, but thought it might be a good side project to photograph all the shops etc along the High Street. It would be easy
It’s been pretty warm in Dunmow today, even at 7:30am when this picture was taken it was really quite warm…so I gave this ox-eye daisy a run through the “flood” filter in photoshop to give this melting sort of look.
