Bradgate Park RPS Nature Trip

 Yesterday and today were challenging days weatherwise for our visit to Bradgate Park in Leicestershire. Torrential rain in the morning on Sunday gave way to sunny intervals. Unfortunately the wet conditions were too much for my weather-resistant telephoto lens and by afternoon was fogged up inside due to internal condensation. This is a set of images taken with my X100V in the afternoon - a mixture of slow shutterspeed, multiple exposure and HDR.

Wandlebury Fungi

 It really was a case of the more you look the more you see at Wandlebury CCC outing yesterday. Certainly there were very few fungi that immediately took the eye. Most are focus stacks - all with FujiX100V.

Miniature Fungi in Hardwick Wood

Here is some of the miniature world on the floor of  Hardwick Wood, a pleasant walk on a warm sunny autumn day (before the heavy showers arrived!)

Garden Badger

We thought we had a visitor in the garden some nights and here is the evidence (ignore the date - it was early this morning)

 

Madingley War Cemetery 2. Autumn Colours

 The maple trees at Madingley are at their best - always a delight to photograph. Last image from Cambridge city centre

Madingley War Cemetery 1. Into the Light

The thick mist that we had in Toft this morning had dispersed when I got to the American Cemetery. Most of the photographs were taken at F16  though the first one is f2 and is my favourite one from the set with the out of focus crosses and the dominant sun..
