Im Spätherbst fuhr ich bereits schon einmal diesen Weg durch Thüringen. Es war damals ein trüber Morgen. Heute war ich kurz vor dem Sonnenuntergang unterwegs...
Überwältigt vom Unterschied, den lediglich ein paar Sonnenstrahlen und ein imposanter Himmel machen können, muss ich euch hier noch mal beide Bilder zeigen!
it's no secret that hoverflies also exist, I think there is one in the crocus, because bees look different. Don't they ?
Thanks for taking the time and looking at this, I really appreciate it!
The magnolias were a splendid sight this year, blooming for a couple of weeks before a sharp frost put an end to the lovely display.
The dark slowly peals away as the light grows. 15 minutes past the lowest tide point, only about halfway from the end now. Signs of the tide rising already creeping in.
At this time of year, I have noticed that the low evening sun shines through a gap at the bottom of the valley and illuminates a group of aspen trees, making them glow with light.
The trees are to the right of centre, with woodlands in shadow behind them.
The valley above the village of Montacute in South Somerset, this is a lovely walk through woodlands and fields finishing in a field owned by The National Trust, leading back to the village.
As the sun warms the earth the early morning mist lifts, revealing the trees on the Iron Age ramparts in Ham Hill Country Park.
I have started to get up earlier to take my “one outside activity” before the majority of people are out. Looking down on the village of Montacute on a morning with frost on the grass. I enjoyed being out on a crisp, sunny morning. The oak trees and fence are the ones featured in yesterday’s post, from the other side.
Looking down, past Horsey’s Wood, to the aspen trees at the bottom of the valley, on a misty February morning.
After a foggy start to the day, the sun dispersed the mists and light flooded the landscape, it really did feel that Spring had arrived.
The stream that originally flowed from the pond was piped underground when this was farmland, now it is part of Ham Hill Country Park, work is being done to reinstate the stream, it has been partly successful and a series of pools runs down the valley, they fill in the wetter months of the year.
Wattle flowers at twilight on the Merri Creek in Northcote, Victoria, a harbinger of spring in southern Australia. The species I believe is Australian Blackwood or Acacia melanoxylon.
Man and his dog out for an early wintry morning walk in our local park ... I thought Spring had arrived? ... View from my dining room window
Looking down from the Iron Age ramparts into Witcombe Valley. This is part of Ham Hill Country Park, an area owned by South Somerset District Council and open to the public. The whole area is managed to encourage wild flowers, birds and animals. The valley is also being used for grazing sheep and cattle. In medieval times the village of Witcombe was inhabited and farmed by tenants, with allocations of 10acres of land. The village declined, probably due to the large scale farming of sheep by the owners, and the only traces are the raised areas where houses once surrounded a village pond.
