227/365v2 The Storm Clouds Gathered

Another shot grabbed from a quick run out at lunchtime – I managed to dodge the showers…just about, to grab this view from the top of the hill at Flatford…I’m looking forward to seeing this again in better weather.

226/365v2 Heavy Traffic under the Orwell Bridge

After yesterday’s disappointing picture I was a lot happier with todays effort. I enjoyed the three swans heading in one direction with the four Canada Geese heading in the opposite direction appearing to be the only traffic heading under the bridge…of course, this is the main river channel into Ipswich,

Holbrook

213/365v2 The Royal Hospital School

Two villages down from the office is the village of Holbrook and The Royal Hospital School. The tower you can see here dominates the skyline for a good distance…what you can’t see here is that this is the centre of the school which radiates left and right for hundreds of

212/365v2 The Remnants of the Harvest

This was originally called The Harvest, then my wife pointed out that actually, this was what was left after the harvest has taken place… I’ve been driving past this field looking at these straw bales for a couple of weeks now. Today I was early enough to jump out of

206/365v2 Last One…

…at least for a couple of days over the weekend 😉 OK – I know I have done one or two from this field over the last week or two. I like this one because using the 70-200mm (at 200mm) has compressed the background nicely meaning you can see the

205/365v2 Who Pulled The Plug Out?

My dashing around Suffolk in my lunch hour continued today as I visited Pin Mill, a very interesting part of the River Orwell between Ipswich and Felixstowe. You’re always told that taking photographs whilst the sun is high overhead is not a good idea…after the last few days I can

204/365v2 Shotley Gate Pier

Dashed out at lunchtime to see if I could find a photograph. I drove up to Alton Water, but I refuse to pay £3 for all day parking when I am only going to be there 30 minutes at the most…why no option to pay a pound for an hour?

203/365v2 The Best View

I finally found my way down onto the river bank/shoreline of the River Stour in Suffolk today. I had a failed attempt at finding this last week…you’d have thought it would be straight forward really – a big expanse of water…Anyhow, the tide was out and it looked…frankly…awful – this

195/365v2 The View From The Car Park

I started my new job today, which was a bit of a shock to the system after 3 months of “holiday”. I’ve parked in a lot of company car parks over the years, but I think this one takes the prize for “Best View” so far. Taken on arrival this
