This is another shot taken the last time I went to Great Swamp NWR. I have others that I will be posting soon. I chose this one because of the tree reflections.

>>> THE SUN HERE FELT LIKE A MENACE AS IT WAS SEEMINGLY LINGERING IN THE FRONT DOORWAY, TRYING TO FORCE ITS WAY IN. SPENDING A LOT OF TIME SHOOTING THE SUN, AND REMAINING ACTIVELY INTERESTED IN HELIOPHYSICS, I KNEW THE SUN CAN BE BOTH BEAUTIFUL AND SIGNIFICANTLY VIOLENT... BUT CREEPY? OH, THIS WAS SHOT WITH A CHEAP LOGITECH WEBCAM AND A SHARD OF WELDER'S GLASS NO. 9, ATTACHED WITH RUBBER BANDS [WHICH IS AMUSIMNG, AS IS ME BEING CREEPED OUT AND SHOOTING REMOTELY FROM INSIDE ON A LAPTOP ;-}.
I CONVERT WEBCAMS AND OLD SECURITY INSTRUMENTS INTO WEATHER CAMS, USUALLY FOR THUNDERSTORMS. LATELY, THE LATE AFTERNON SUN HAS REALLY TRAPPED AND SEIZED MY ATTENTION. SO, I'VE SUBSEQUENTLY PLAYED AROUND WITH SHOOTING VIDEOS AND STILLS USING A RANGE OF FILTERS (AND RUBBER BANDS, GRAVITY... TILT THE CAM, THEN LET THE GLASS LEAN..... VERY HIGH TECH OPERATION ;-}. "I MAKE MY OWN FUN."

Anglesey Abbey Winter Gardens (National Trust), Cambridgeshire, England :
This is one of the best gardens in the UK specifically planted for outstanding seasonal interest in winter. It is a great place for gardeners to gain inspiration for colourful all year round planting. It is also one of the few gardens that really are a joy to visit in the winter!
This photo shows a small grove of the very attractive white barked Himalayan Birch (Betula jacquemontii). This is a peaceful, tranquil and calming place.
Details: Anglesey Abbey Winter Gardens have now matured nicely and contain over 150 species of plant selected for their ability to provide winter interest – both visual and scented. The gardens have a strong structural element with a quarter mile zigzag path leading through them and sizeable hedges bordering and sheltering the gardens.
The borders are filled with combinations of plants designed to give vibrant colors and structural interest in winter. They contain fiery colored dogwoods, mahonias, ‘whitewashed’ ornamental brambles, coppiced willows, viburnums and grasses. There are also excellent displays of attractive colorful tree barks from white Himalayan Silver Birches and copper coloured Tibetan Cherries, together with a good collection of winter flowering shrubs.
The gardens are a top UK spot for snowdrops, with many different varieties planted throughout the grounds.
Although good throughout all of the winter, February is a great time for seeing carpets of snowdrops in the gardens (which attract large numbers of visitors).
Location: Anglesey Abbey Gardens, Lode, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, UK. CB25 9EJ
The gardens are near the village of Lode, which is quite close to the city of Cambridge (approximately 6 miles north east on the B1102 road).

I regularly pass this pair of trees on my run / walk routes. This particular day I was a bit later than usual and caught a rather nice sky.
This week's Sunday Landscapes features the view along an ancient, at least medieval, track from which it is possible to access Lewesdon Hill from the west. Still a public right-of-way bridleway, this route will have been used for centuries. Although not visible here, at times it becomes much, much wider suggesting that it was primarily used a drove road for moving animals from farm to market.

Drawn through the bedroom window late this afternoon, with my ink bottles, pots, water colour box, knives and brushes all lined up on the window sill in front of me.Daren't risk dropping ( almost inevitable given my track record! ) indelible ink on our white fronted Italian chairs so I Iugged the paint-spotted step stool in from the kitchen and perched on that! Enjoyed the free, windy feel of it all and decided, unusually for me..to begin with a huge mop brush and heavily diluted water colour to swish in just a suggestion of the blue/grey Spring sky. Hadn't the patience to wait till it was dry and started drawing with ink too soon..could I resist those sweeping branches????NO! Hence the captivating black blob centre right.... hm
A rainy day in Greenwich Village by Washington Square Park. New York City.
A cab waits for the light to change as people with umbrellas cross the slick street.
I love rainy days in NYC.
