I wonder how many miles I've walked in my 58 years here on this earth?
I've walked this section of the Jurassic Way footpath to Sibbertoft and back at least 20 times during the pandemic, so there's 200 miles, plus all the times I've walked upstairs, or into my garage, then had to retrace my steps because I've forgotten what I went there for, my school days, hmmm I must've walked at least 3 or 4 miles daily, 5 days a week, then there's all the 20 mile sponsored walks for Mencap that I used to do, the 26 mile walk for 'world awareness' where I walked behind a Buddhist monk banging his drum for each step.
As you can see, April has been an exceptionally dry month.
Time for me to do a Raindance and hope no-one's watching ... and if they are, why worry about it anyway?
Not every day is sunny but that actually made it a good time to grab some pictures along this trail. It was used for a couple of centuries as a portage route by ancient Ojibwa people when they traveled between their inland winter and summer shoreline camps on the great lakes. It was humbling to think of yourself walking in their footsteps. The image itself has been edited with "Slider Sunday" in mind.

Candid street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. I just loved the positioning of the people in this shot. The careful footsteps of the elderly man and woman with her stick while the young guy is running uphill from behind. A great setting too - that bent and buckled pathway of the alley behind. Enjoy!
Sefton Park, Liverpool
The overnight dew had soaked the grass, and I met this bloke and started talking to him. He was amazed at the light and the mist and started taking shots with his phone. We said goodbye and he wondered off. I noticed that the grass was showing his and the dogs footsteps, so I took a couple of photos useing the lead in lines of his and the dogs path.
Seminyak is a beach town in South Bali.
The next town north of Legian, Seminyak is more upmarket with mostly luxury accommodation and fashionable high-end restaurants and bars. The atmosphere is much more sophisticated and laid-back than Kuta, and the beach in particular is quieter during the day. Seminyak is also the high end spa and boutique shopping capital of Bali. Nowhere is the upscaling of Bali in recent years more obvious than here.
It is hard to imagine that only ten years ago this was a distinctly separate village, and something of a backwater. Development has occurred at an astonishing pace, and as well as absorbing all green space which formerly separated Seminyak from Legian, it is now almost impossible to determine where Seminyak ends and the nearby villages of Petitenget, Umalas and Kerobokan begin. This certainly has its downside, and the whole district has become very congested.

Morning scene on the last day of our weekend trip. I had gone for a walk with my wife. Saw these interesting footsteps probably of dog and a lone boat. Never got this opportunity in my earlier trip to Odisha coast (same Bay of Bengal). Instantly, thought of a composition with a very high dof (f18). Cropped a little to maintain the rule of thirds. Thanks for viewing/commenting. Feel free to criticize.
Every footstep that I take
Completes the circle my life makes,
Every living thing has ties that bind,
What I lost returns with love in time.

R I T U A L - Bottle Tops ft. Mononoke

Bottle tops are enough to fill my pocket
So I’ve still got time for one more before we go
And if your touch is not enough to bring me home that’s tragic
You know you’ll be the first one when I’m alone
And you won’t tell me you love me
You don’t have to hurt me
Don’t know if you’ll come home tonight
I know we can make it
I’ll wait for your footsteps
I’ll hold you ‘til you feel alright
And then you’ll tell me you love me
You don’t mean to hurt me
You’ll promise you’ll come home tonight
I know we can make it
I’ll wait for your footsteps
I’ll hold you ‘til you feel alright
Drown me out me girl I’ve no will, no fighting
And when you leave I guess there’ll be the killer blow
Don’t think me lost now you know I’m just hiding
You’ll hear those words from someone you can call your own
This madness makes no sense because you’re all I’ve got
(Promise you’ll come home, can we make it?)
Know that I should be right there
(Is my love enough? I’m always waiting)
This madness makes no sense because you’re all I’ve got
(Promise you’ll come home, can we make it?)
Know that I should be right there
(Is my love enough?)
Love you more
Hurt you no more
Come home tonight
Footsteps will fall
You’ll feel alright
