This is something I did last time I completed a 365 - not on here - a monthly shot of this view to see how the seasons change the landscape. Having forgotten to take a picture the first Sunday of the month, I meant to use the last Sunday instead, but Get Pushed last week meant that didn't work.
I am standing on an ancient track that wasn't tarmacked when the roads were surfaced, which runs up to the farm in the distance along the hedge on the right. Until the 1980s there were hedges on either side of the track until the farmer cleared the one nearest the fields. The right hand side is partially a wildlife corridor to join up the different sections of the local Forest, although the acre nearest me is being developed commercially. My favourite tree is in the fields off to the left. The farm in the distance is on maps from the 1600s and the oldest barn has timber joints that date back to the 1300s.
We had snow overnight, but rain, snow, rain, then frost leaving ice everywhere and snow settled on the grass.
Three good things:
1. I've finished all the hand sewing on a woollen skirt for my daughter and the pyjamas she was making;
2. Lovely sunny snowy walk this morning across the fields;
3. Really fun session at Guides tonight using some of the new materials that worked.
Thank you for looking, commenting and your favs, and for getting the goldfinches to the PP. You are all lovely. I try to say thank you here, rather than individually, then spend time I would spend saying thank you here looking at your photographs
Snow covered my car yesterday morning and there was a slight smattering on the ground but luckily it melted quickly. We've been given a snow number to phone tomorrow morning in case work is shut but I'm assuming I'll be going in as usual.
Thanks for entering the landscape challenge!
