Day 30 - Has Spring Sprung?

Had a wander down by the river in the sunshine today - love the glassy water in this one and the peaceful feeling.

Day 22 - Boats at Maldon - two versions


Ever heard of Maldon sea salt? Well, it comes from Maldon about 5 miles from my home - lots of mud flats, salt marshes and boats in this area for many, many years so I thought I'd have a go at aging my shot - think I prefer the 'old' one!

Day 33 - Oops!

Either this is badly parked or very abandoned!! LOL I dragged hubby down to the sea wall today in the hope of spotting the kingfisher again. Well, we did see it but gosh, those little birds are fast movers - by the time I'd spotted it and got the camera to my eye - it was gone :( So one or two derelict boats/debris shots later, I chose this one for today's piccy. I like the contrast between the derelict boat, the vast expanse of mud and the brand new houses and bright colours in the background.

Day 23 - Lunchtime View



Just a few minutes walk away from my new office job. I thought I knew the area fairly well but this little corner of the estuary has escaped my notice until now. I mentioned a kingfisher the other day - well I saw him down here again today so I reckon he is definitely a local. If the weather forecast is OK for tomorrow, I'm lugging the whole kit with me - I've got my car back so that makes things easier :)

This also faces due East and the sun is rising just over the derelict boats on the far right so I reckon 2 more weeks and it should be just about on the horizon as I arrive for work - I foresee more camera lugging ahead LOL
