Taken in 2011.
The bike path beside the Charles River, caught at a rare moment when there were neither joggers nor bikes in sight.
A mysteric way led me down into the forest of the Wuerm Valley. Big sandstone rocks there are leftovers of the last ice age, 10.000 years ago. At this time, there was no wood at the place while wind and weather formed the landscape.

At the end of that street, you will find a red tori which leads, via a steep stairs, to the Enoshima Shrine main gate. If you don't feel like taking the steep stairs and slopes, this is also where you can take the Enoshima Escar, an escalator that will take you to the top of the island for ¥380.
The way down is done by foot however. The Enoshima Shrine is actually composed of three distinct shrines. Each of them is dedicated to one of the Shinto sea Goddesses of the Munakata trio; Tagitsuhime, Ichikishimahime and Tagirihime.
The Goddesses are thought to have been originally worshiped in a small shrine built inside one of the two Iwaya caves by the Emperor Kinmei (510 – 571).
They were however subsequently relocated in 853 to a more sturdy building, the Nakatsu-no-miya which is at the center of the island. This temple is still visible (it is one of the three shrines that compose the Enoshima Shrine) it and serves as the base for the temples present today.

ODC - Complicated
Since we let Samuel loose with his own camera I have realised more than ever what a difference perspective makes. I have never noticed just how complicated and interesting this path looks from a couple of feet lower down than I usually see it - as in the picture, the only one who is really noticing the pattern is the little guy who is down close to it.
Close to home…..
Snow comes to Cheddington.
For about 100 yds Church Path goes into a natural tunnel between Horse Chestnuts and Firs on the right and overgrown plum trees on the left. Because the leaves are still mostly on the trees it has completely sheltered this section of the path from our recent short-lived snow fall.
