Out and About – Baddesley Clinton

I took myself off to one of my favourite National Trust properties this morning for a treat. One of their excellent bacon batches (that’s ‘roll’ to any southerners), and a cup of coffee. It had rained just before I left so I didn’t take any of my cameras, but I had my iPhone for any … Continue reading Out and About – Baddesley Clinton →

Out and About – Laggan Wood

This is another image taken whilst I was in Scotland. This time we had parked in the lovely little village of Comrie and walked along the top of the gorge in which the River Laggan ran. The out ward trip was on the western side of the river and the return trip was on the … Continue reading Out and About – Laggan Wood →

Out and About – River Braan

This image was taken as I walked along the gorge cut through the woods by the River Braan, near Dunkeld in Perthshire. The sun was just filtering into the trees and the lack of leaves meant that the thin branches were illuminated whilst the trees and thicker branches were rim lit. The thinner tendril-like branches … Continue reading Out and About – River Braan →

All the world’s a stage. Er, no it isn’t.

Yesterday, I felt the urge to buy some new clothing. Winter is now hopefully on the way out, so it’s time to throw off the furs and buy a new mankini. So, Mrs M and daughter grabbed our passports and headed south into deepest Buckinghamshire to the town of many islands – Milton Keynes. Now … Continue reading All the world’s a stage.

Out and About – Witley Court

Today I paid another visit to Witley Court. It was promising to be another lovely early spring day and I had three photo projects that I had to be getting on with. Witley court started off as a medieval manor house but was bought by the Foley family in 1655. Over the next two centuries … Continue reading Out and About – Witley Court →
