Staying on a theme of Christmas ‘mood’, am sharing shots from a day I was out dodging snow showers and catching long shadow around the village. Had to show the two snowmen I came across – one reminded me of R2D2 and the other, of that dodgy Birds Eye bear!
While out one evening in the summer, I stopped to photograph a field of corn shocks in the late sun – not a very common sight these days, I think the field belonged to a local thatcher. While doing so… a hot air balloon floated over and disappeared into the sunset!
A beautiful bouquet of flowers at home, now past their best, made me think to search through the many photographs I have of wild flowers.
These were taken earlier this year on a trip round a local wood, only open to the public once a year. While there are many rare wild flowers protected in this place, who doesn’t like a beautiful bluebell.
I spotted our guides mode of transport, propped up on the edge of the wood … and you don’t get more modern than this!
Continuing on a Christmas/winter theme, there is something very beautiful when our landscape is covered in snow – the different footprints tell so many stories… and the long shadows cast by early morning sunlight are just asking to be captured.
