An Evening Stroll




























































































Early this evening the sun popped out and I decided to head off to our nearby woods. Just me, my camera and my thoughts. My only company was the sound of the breeze, the snap of twigs and evening bird call. Winding path after winding path led me past swathes of bluebells. These are the same woods I took my new camera to when I had first had it in February. I haven't been here since the bluebells came out and I was in awe. The light in these woods is magical. 

On my way back I was mesmerised by the masses of dandelions. I must admit I dawdled home and took a detour past a nearby stream in search of some restful water. Sometimes it's just so good to be alone and get away from it all. I couldn't help but feel for this mama duck and her brood of eight.
