205/365v2 Who Pulled The Plug Out?

My dashing around Suffolk in my lunch hour continued today as I visited Pin Mill, a very interesting part of the River Orwell between Ipswich and Felixstowe. You’re always told that taking photographs whilst the sun is high overhead is not a good idea…after the last few days I can

204/365v2 Shotley Gate Pier

Dashed out at lunchtime to see if I could find a photograph. I drove up to Alton Water, but I refuse to pay £3 for all day parking when I am only going to be there 30 minutes at the most…why no option to pay a pound for an hour?

203/365v2 The Best View

I finally found my way down onto the river bank/shoreline of the River Stour in Suffolk today. I had a failed attempt at finding this last week…you’d have thought it would be straight forward really – a big expanse of water…Anyhow, the tide was out and it looked…frankly…awful – this

202/365v2 Half Way Done

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

Debbie spotted this Longhorn Beetle flying to this plant – what a great bug. No hoverflies were harmed in the making of this photograph. This was the first of many new bugs (to me) spotted today – more below

199/365v2 Film Noir Wheat and a Tree

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

198/365 – The Scruffy Top

Having just got rid of the fair, Great Dunmow is now home to the Circus. After a busy day at work with no time to grab a shot I thought getting a shot of The Big Top would be just the thing, and throw in a bit of a sunset

197/365v2 Golden Barley

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

196/365v2 Bloomin’ Summer

Tuesday night is Camera Club night and we found ourselves at Hopleys garden centre in Much Hadham. It was a lovely evening, although I do accept you wouldn’t necessarily know that from this shot…still 😉
