The Sun Comes Out in Derbyshire

The sun finally emerged from the cloud just before it sank beneath the horizon and we got some better pix than on the way out.

A Wet Day in Derbyshire

Playing Jenga up to 35 layers, then, there being no more moves, pulling the plug.

City of the Dogs

A cold day in Buxton, the opera house open, more dogs that you can shake a stick at - collies, spaniels

and Westies mostly - and low sun.  Snap of the day was a merlin flying across the road near Hollinsclough.  Just when you need a camera!

Kedleston Hall

A Palladian pile built for Viscount Curzon, who was Viceroy of India and now rests in this side chapel.  

Welney Washes

Two from the hides yesterday - 400mm + 1.4x converter.

Macro Shortbread

Cheap and cheerful macro set-up.

It Wasn't Me!

Nuffink to do with me, Grandad.  I was abducted by aliens and when I asked them to change my nappy they dumped me back in this box.  I mean, look at my boat - I'm innocent, I bin framed.  

Looking Like Her Grandmother!

Sadie helping her mum to wash the car this afternoon.

Lakenheath Sunset

Low sun and clean atmosphere after the rains.  Swans, Egyptian Geese and Harriers at RSPB Lakenheath Fen.  (The two harriers on the left are male Hens, the two on the right female Marshies.)

Minions

Sadie and Meredith last week.  Sadie was chain-watching 'Despicable Me 2', and drew a Minion in the corner of her chalkboard.
