American Cemetery Cambridge

The autumn colours on the maples and other trees at Madingley War Cemetery are developing well though many leaves have not yet turned. The green intensity is reduced in full-spectrum photography giving a hint of what is to come if the winds stay away.

Green Therapy along the River

I have the reputation for finding bright greens in images very distracting so wondered whether images with green as the only colour would work. Images from a walk along the river in Cambridge on the hottest day (so far!) of 2023. With the Chestnuts already turning to autumn hues it certainly simplified the scenes. Last two images playing with different colours.

Dorset - Minterne Gardens

On our last full day in Dorset, we spent the afternoon in Minterne Gardens - a study in greens, dappled sunlight and magnificent plants and architecture.

Dorset 5 Fern Lane Kingcombe

We found this wonderful lane near our accommodation in Dorset by accident but a great find with vibrant ferns lining both sides of the track.

Leith Hill and Leith Place NT

A wonderful walk at Leith Hill in Surrey where the bright sunshine accentuated the fresh greens of the trees and ferns and the view from the Tower towards the South Downs was spectacular. After a 7-mile walk in the morning, I spent the afternoon at the very peaceful Leith Place, Ralph Vaughan Williams' home from the age of two till he was 20.
