The Caerfanell waterfall can be found with the Blaen y Glyn scenic area of the Talybont Forest. At the this time of year there is a good flow of water which tumbles through the boulders in front of the waterfall.

Four images of hellebores that are now flowering in our garden. They are all different varieties - three are shades of red & pink. The fourth is pale yellow.

Spring is beginning in England. Our hellebores are flowering in the garden. We are very relieved as they suffered badly in last summer’s drought. #photography #spring #hellibores

I gave up listening to Today during the Brexit referendum too. It’s now Radio 3 in the morning. No more shouting at the radio.

Bruce Springsteen - Streets Of Minneapolis (Official Audio)
YouTube video by Bruce Springsteen Bruce Springsteen - Streets Of Minneapolis (Official Audio)

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

For what it’s worth I prefer the greens and browns of the colour version. The fog gives it atmosphere.

Late afternoon at Loughrigg Tarn in the English Lake District. Sun light catches the side of the Langdale Pikes and the trees surrounding the Tarn. A chill wind disturbs the water on the Tarn.

Kelly Hall tarn is a small lake in the Torver Common near Coniston. The tarn is frozen giving reflections of a pine tree on the left hand side, birch trees in the middle and the Old Man of Coniston mountain on the right hand side. Late afternoon sun catch’s the side of the trees and the mountains in the background.

The Garreg-du viaduct crosses the reservoir to the Nantgwyllt church. The reservoir was constructed between 1893 and 1906 to provide water to Birmingham, 75 miles away. The old church was lost when the reservoir was constructed. The new church was sited to achieve asthetic impact aligning with viaduct.

St Paul’s Cathedral is seen at the far end of the Millennium Bridge in London. A ramp slopes up from the river Thames bank. Glass safety barriers give a blue light to the side of the bridge.

The images shows the nave of the crypt with chairs along the side between pillars. There is a wooden table in the centre with a carved stone panel behind. There is subdued lighting to illuminate the ceiling and some natural light entering from the right. 

The crypt sits under the Lady Chapel of Hereford Cathedral. It was once used as a charnel house to store corpses and bones!

It’s great to find someone else who initially doesn’t like their photographs but a few days later decides they are OK. Happens to me all the time. Live the atmosphere of your image.

A path covered in fallen beech leaves leads through an avenue of trees showing their autumn colours.  Savernake Forest is full of ancient trees and was once a hunting ground of Henry VIII. He met his third wife, Jane Seymour, while staying with her father, the then owner of the forest.

Starmer and Reeves have finally found the courage to talk about Brexit. But they have chosen to make a version of the Brexit apologist’s argument - it was how it was implemented. Farage will turn that to his advantage saying he agrees - it would have worked it done better. 😱

This is a black and white version of the image of the rocks on Hathersage Moor. The main differences are the shower over the village on the right hand side is more distinct and the heather on the rocks is less obvious.
