211/366 A Double Rainbow over Doctors Pond

Sunshine and showers sums this afternoon up well. We were enjoying the latest downpour when I realised that there was a great deal of sunlight so dashed upstairs and saw a double rainbow out of our landing window. The trouble was, it was chucking it down, but I thought, if

210/366 A golden long horned moth on scabious

I popped out for a walk late afternoon/early evening and decided to head down to the Flitch Way in Dunmow. I’ve been on the Flitch Way at Little Dunmow and Little Canfield, but never in Great  Dunmow. So off I set, thinking I knew exactly how to get to it…of

191/366 Leaning over the Chelmer

I took a quick walk over the Recreation Ground in Dunmow this evening…I took a rather daft chance and went in t-shirt, shorts and camera…no coat, no bag for camera. Whilst I was only ever 15 minutes away from home it suddenly dawned on me that I may struggle to

188/366 Sunset from Little Easton

So, half of Britain is flooding at the moment as we go through the wettest Summer for a long time. As I drove back from work we had the most torrential downpour that quickly caused flash floods on the road…but as soon as we were getting drenched, we were out

180/366 Phew, what a scorcher…

It’s been extremely hot and humid here in Dunmow today, but at least the sun came out and we got away from the unremitting grey skies we’ve had for the last few days. So, come the evening and what better than to take a stroll along the River Chelmer in

172/366 Emergency Fall Back Picture

The Summer Solstice, aka the longest day, is probably not the right day to decide “tonight’s the night for light painting”. Sadly, I had seen, in my minds eye, the picture I wanted to make and the fact that I was only going to get an hour or so of

171/366 Doctors Pond at Dusk

Tuesday night is camera club night and so it was that I travelled out to the Red Lion at Finchingfield where we had the annual summer dinner, and very pleasant it was too. I suspect I missed quite a nice sunset but thought it polite not to up sticks and

167/366 The Old Weeping Willow

There were 2 quite magnificent weeping willow trees around Doctors Pond a few years ago. Then, this one was (possibly for good reason) cut right back to the trunk…it’s clearly a fighter though and it’s definitely making a come back.
