The fool, from the Whitchurch morris side, outside the Axe and Compasses in Arkesden, Essex. Taken over the centenary weekend of the Thaxted morris men and the first of several encounters with him over the weekend.
An entertaining and eccentric bloke who kept holding up and harassing passing motorists for charity donations.
I am a fool sometimes. I had planned to get out early this morning but couldn't decide where I wanted to go, tides weren't all that great for coastal stuff and I was under orders not to burn up too much petrol so a local shoot it would have to be. Awaking nice and early I started to get myself sorted but found myself being cajoled into entertaining my youngest (normally you can't get them up early on a schoolday). I'd already looked out of the window to see a huge bank of thick cloud to the east, not much chance of a decent sunrise I thought. Eventually at just after 7am i hit the road to witness the sun literally burning a hole through that bank of cloud but was there a decent vantage point to capture it, was there heck.
I just caught the tail end of the sunrise when I arrived at Plessey Woods so, with my 10-20 in place and an ND grad on the front I took a couple of shots then I hoisted the tripod and camera onto my shoulder and headed to the river a ten minute walk away. What I should have done was put myself into nature mode, i.e. swap to a longer lens and set the controls for a faster shutter speed cos you never know what you might spot. What i did spot was three roe deer crossing the track ahead of me and could I get a shot, could I heck. Worse still I keep telling myself to carry the Dynax with the 70-300 on just for such instances.
I did swap lenses to my 18-105 (the longest I have for the Nikon) but, despite two more fleeting glances of the deer I never got a decent shot, too many trees in the way.
I did spot this golden winter morning light though so a quick handheld shot was taken.

This stone is SUPPOSED to be where Christs body was layed when taken down from the stake It is greased daily. Silly fools! I hope they know that Jehovah doesn't like us to worship idols even though it was his son.
''For I Jehovah am a jealous god and share my glory with NO ONE''
This game is obviously not geared towards women - we don't want anyone to guess our weight or our age. Geesh! ;)
A fool can never learn from the wise person how never to be a fool, for a fool will always be a fool!
But the wise person can always learn from the fool, how never to be a fool!
