Another walk...

[sildil]

It's sort of an internal resolution, to go on more walks this year. Partly exercise, partly just getting out in the countryside, partly to take photos and partly to reconnect a little more with spouse.

Anyway, yesterday it started off a nice day (though by the time we went on the walk it had clouded a bit) so we went to the local wonderfully named village of Chaddesley Corbett and walked up to Chaddesley woods, the nearest forest we have to home.








The inevitable cut tree ends - always so photogenic


The state of the path most of the way! Just as well I had my new red wellies...


I loved this tree, the hole looked like a cave and you could see right down inside...


An amazing flock of crows, never seen quite so many at once


These sheep and their friends followed spouse right across the field as he 'bleated' at them. I was not amused...


We finished our walk just as it was losing light...cue nice atmospheric shots!

I absolutely love your 'photo walk' posts. I think that last pic has to be my favourite, but they're all beautiful, in fact I'm half toying with an idea some jewellery from the cut tree ends one :D

Are you using point and shoot mode here? I may have to beg a camera lesson! I think as much for composition as anything, you take such beautifully balanced pictures.

Oh and those books I bought, to see if they're as bad as people were saying? They are. They're ghastly, just 'oh my god' bad in so many ways and that's just from skimming parts of them! I still love the film though.

Yep, just point and shoot and on automatic. I did take about 70 plus however, and weeded out a lot that I didn't like. As far as composition goes, yeah well I guess part of that is knowing a few tricks/theories and the rest just...dunno LOL!

We need to go out with our cameras and just spend some time playing :)

Aww thank you! Sorry I've not been about btw, been TOTALLY anti-social and working on 'D'. Just about finished now apart from a reworking of a texture and doing Hand. And now logins are disabled and I am stuck! See you soon xxx

Nooo, no worries! I'm sorry I missed you when you came by earlier. Yeah, SL's been giving me login problems these few days too. Woot! Hand!! XD

See you soon and take care!~ <3

Lovely photos... I need me some red wellies!

And, the sheep look mauve. I rather like that!

:D

[sildil]

Red wellies are cool! And yeah it was a weird, late afternoon light, the colour was all a bit odd! But then it rained like the end of the world about half an hour later, so maybe that explains the mauve!

love these photo walks you take us on!

[sildil]

Well thank you! I enjoy taking the pictures and it is an excuse to get out of the house :)

Such beautiful pictures again! The one with the crows is just so dynamic. I love the tree with the hole, it looks so amazing, and the last one is just so soothing. Thank you very much for sharing! :D

[sildil]

Thank you so much, I like to share them and glad you like the last one, yeah it IS soothing :)
