Kings Lynn, Norfolk

I stayed in Kings Lynn overnight, having lectured to their Camera club last night and visited the town before driving back this morning. The Custom House was built in 1683 and is remarkably well preserved as are a lot of the other 17th Century buildings. The statue is of George Vancouver who charted Northwest America.

Paxton Pits

The sun was a bit later coming out than Miles and I had hoped but eventually some good light arrived just as a pair of Great Crested Grebes swam up to the hide at Paxton Pits. Various other species showing signs of pairing and one Chiffchaff was heard so spring is underway!!

Concrete (Appreciation) Society

Some time ago I became aware of the Concrete Society and how people can become interested in the graphic possibilities and power of concrete constructions. Here, for fellow addicts,  some images of  concrete slabs abandoned  outside a large warehouse at Glasson dock.

Glasson Dock, Lancashire

 On Thursday, we visited Glasson Dock on a beautiful sunny spring morning, a lovely area for a few shots of barges, derelict craft (especially like the washing line and pegs), the working Dock and the small church.

Leighton Moss RSPB Reserve

Some images from our visit on Wednesday on a day that started rather dull and rainy but cleared to a beautiful afternoon. a few of the species seen - Shoveller, Egret, Lapwing, Black-tailed Godwits, Pheasants, Redshank. Black-headed Gulls and Marsh Harrier. Still experimenting with Fuji 100-400mm!!
