In the park. About 10 minutes after I'd come off my bike.
We got up with Grace this morning as she was working and Dave made her coffee and brought out the cereal. A murky start to the day and it was raining quite heavily. This cleared up thank goodness in time for me to cycle to Zumba.
Good class and I was cycling towards the park to take a picture of their gardens when I misjudged a raised part of the cycle path and went tumbling down - my bike landing heavily on my knee. Some passing chaps came over and helped me up.
Was excruciating though and I was so cross as I'm normally so careful with those raised edges - have come off because of those before. A lot of bruising and redness, swelling and numbness but everything is still moving so I can't have done much damage. Though the numbness is very disconcerting - still there.
Not sure if I'll be going to the balfolk session I'd been planning on doing later.
3 good things
1. I fell on my less-bad knee - goodness knows what might have happened if it had been the other one.
2. So lucky to have someone at home ready to cosset me and put honey (!!) on my bruise and bring me tea, wine and cake.
3. Nice passers-by coming over and hoisting me up.
So sorry to hear about your fall. hope no lasting damage to either you or your camera and you are soon back doing zumba and playing your accordion. I do like the interesting layering in this capture and the wonderful clarity of the foliage at the front.
Lovely focus on the foreground. I reckon you were too busy looking out for the right shot! You found it! Hope your swelling and bruising soon dies down
Sorry to read about your tumble, be gentle with yourself.
Really nice shot, fabulous pov
Sorry to hear about you coming off your bike, I hope the bruises heal quickly!
