I have had a slightly bonkers day as it is the end of the month and the end of the tax year and the renewal date for various things that require forms and I am going away on Monday and all the mundane tasks like shopping have to be done in advance online. But I decided to make Monty happy and take him for a ride in the car and then a walk - he always sulks if we just set out from home. - and I ended up with too many photos that I liked. I've gone with this because I love the willows when they are all fresh like this and I will confess that I was trying to focus on the punter but I like the focus on the willow. Also I may be able to recreate the other shot that I like better tomorrow - and if not I'll do some sort of cheat. The cloud was really low and oppressive on my walk but somehow the light was interesting in a few shots and it brought out some delicate colours in others. C'est la vie - photos are like buses...
Three GT:
1. The fab reaction to both of my animal 'last minute emergency' shots.
2. Still appreciating my home town.
3. The predictability of animals - put a towel down and a pristine cat will immediately sit on it whereas a wet dog will circle it before dragging it around the room.
Great capture of the boat under the bridge. I had a crazy day as well and love the term bonkers - going to use that phrase. let's hope tomorrow is a great day - should be since it's friday
LOL about your animal behaviour!
Punting already on the river.....lovely. I agree the pale green of the Willow is very soft & delicate, almost always the first tree out yet it has quite fragile looking leaves. I like the multiple bridge background too. Sounds like you might be away on your own?
The willows are beautiful! Buses = photos = robins - at least in my experience. Have a lovely time, Judith, wherever you are going - in case I don't get a chance again to say.
