A Cloudy Moon
2014 - 365 Project

036/365v2 A Cloudy Moon

Having spent ages photographing all sorts of things this evening, but not actually liking anything, I noticed that the clouds were scudding past the moon giving it an interesting appearance, I’m not sure I caught what I saw, but it’s certainly better than the other stuff I shot 😉

35/52 Doctors Pond Sun Stream

Look through this web site and you’ll see many shots of Doctors Pond in Great Dunmow…not least because I only live about 20 yards from it 😉 I’ve never had any issues photographing this until today. Whilst photographing this I was approached by a woman who demanded to know what

34/52 The Harvest

One of my more regular places to photograph is Rowney Woods near Debden and Saffron Walden in Essex. This, as you will gather, was not taken in the woods, but rather out on the wheat fields behind the woods. The farmer had just harvested the wheat and had left these

32/52 The End of the Pier

I made my annual pilgrimage to the Rebellion Festival in Blackpool with my brother and, as usual, I had a walk around Blackpool after breakfast before the Festival opened at midday. Blackpool has certainly suffered over the last few years with the economy collapsing and it was disappointing to hear

30/52 A Brace of Spitfire

A visit the Imperial War Museum at Duxford periodically. It helps that a friend is a Friend of Duxford and gets me in when there is something interesting going on. On Saturday he felt there was a fair chance of Spitfires flying as there was an expedition taking place on

29/52 The American Cemetery, Madingley

The Bishops Stortford Camera Club visited the American Cemetery just outside Cambridge as part of their photowalk around Cambridge (more of that to follow over at Flitch Photography). This was quite a place to visit – very moving – and a real reminder that wars kill people. Fight war, not

27/52 Bearded Dragon, Linton Zoo

So the Photographers Day at Linton Zoo arrived and what a scorcher it was. Now, you may think that a lovely hot sunny day is ideal for getting amongst the animals and getting some lovely pictures…well, it is better than if it was tipping it down with rain! However, all

25/52 An Unexpected Sunset

Sometimes I write completely new pieces for the blog, sometimes I use the same write up as my Flickr account – which you can visit by clicking here or on the Flickr icon at the top right of the page…anyhow, this is what I said on the Flickr version: Driving

23/52 Cotton Top Tamarin

Do you ever watch Monkey World? I must admit, I do enjoy the antics of all the chimps there, but I do have a soft spot for the Cotton Top Tamarin’s, so I was delighted to find some at Linton Zoo in Cambridgeshire. Linton Zoo takes in rare and abandoned animals
