I know it's not a particularly exciting photo, but I really wanted to upload something as I haven't in a while!
Today we had our school Sponsored Walk, but because I'm in Sixth Form (last year ahhhhhhhhhhh), we just got to sit by the path and 'guide' them (it really wasn't that hard). So that was good fun. We sat on a picnic blanket, played cards and ate strawberries. So civilized!

St Monans (often spelt St Monance) is a village and parish in the East Neuk of Fife and is named after the legendary Saint Monan. Situated approximately 3 miles west of Anstruther, this small community, whose inhabitants formerly made their living mainly from fishing, is now a tourist destination situated on the Fife Coastal Path. Quoted from Wikipedia.

The Spinney is a prominent belt of mature beech, sycamore and lime trees planted in 1912 as a windbreak for the former Park Prewett Hospital estate, near Basingstoke, Hampshire. This lovely woodland avenue has a central path which provides opportunity for pleasant circular and short walks and wildlife spotting.
In landscaping, an avenue, alameda, or allée, is traditionally a straight path or road with a line of trees or large shrubs running along each side, which is used, as its Latin source venire ("to come") indicates, to emphasize the "coming to," or arrival at a landscape or architectural feature. In most cases, the trees planted in an avenue will be all of the same species or cultivar, so as to give uniform appearance along the full length of the avenue.
The avenue is one of the oldest ideas in the history of gardens. An avenue of sphinxes still leads to the tomb of the pharaoh Hatshepsut. Avenues similarly defined by guardian stone lions lead to the Ming tombs in China. British archaeologists have adopted highly specific criteria for "avenues" within the context of British archaeology.
This avenue was in the grounds of Park Prewett at Rooksdown which is the name of the locality and is shown as Rooks Down in the Ogilby strip maps of 1675. It is also the name of the old Roman road that passes through the Parish, and of the now demolished Rooksdown Hospital, originally Rooksdown House (the Private annexe of Park Prewett Hospital), which once occupied the north west corner of the parish at the junction of Kingsclere Road and Rooksdown Road.
The land which Rooksdown parish now occupies was originally part of the grounds of the former Park Prewett Hospital and farm. After the hospital closed in 1997, some small development took place on surrounding land. The main hospital site was acquired by English Partnerships in 2005 for the purposes of redeveloping the area. The original clock tower, water tower and entertainment hall have been retained as they are listed buildings.
This location now exists between Parcel Drive and Priestley Road behind the Post Office Building.

Every season in nice and have their own charme. For me spring and autumn are the most beautiful and colorful.
Straight on would meet Coppermine Lane which heads down to Gallantry Bank. Right would continue on the Sandstone Trail footpath to its highest point, Raw Head. A sunny day so I turned right for a longer route to Gallantry Bank which had the added bonus of the final footpath being through a very muddy recently harvested potato field!
This path leads to looming, low and ominous clouds on the horizon - all who tread forward be not feint of heart!
Light is really everything in photography. It's crazy to think in detail about the journey it takes. From a star to earth, bouncing and reflecting off of things. Particles/waves being focused through my lens and onto my film to be recorded as they were in that one moment.
Anyhow, here is some very nice light recorded on film.

The path along the River Don at Woodside, Aberdeen.
This walk is a couple of minutes from home so I spend most of my time here walking the dog.

White Light White Peak, the live show, is a personal journey through a year in the White Peak told through poems and projections. see: www.whitelightwhitepeak.com
“a beautiful work of art in every one of its facets – poetry, photography, stagecraft, soundtrack.”
Jim Marriott – Buxton Festival Fringe review.
"Summed up in one word - mesmerising." (Caroline Small, events manager at The Green Man Gallery, Buxton).
Touring the Peak District and beyond, September and October - with more dates planned for 2020.
Starting in the depths of a snowy winter, this is a poetic journey through a White Peak year, including encounters with the weather, wildlife and people; some amusing, some thought-provoking and many involving a Springer Spaniel...or two. The poems are told from memory and in a conversational style; more like miniature short stories at times, complete with twists and some happy endings.
The White Light is all in my monochrome photography: Atmospheric landscapes, wildlife shots and enigmatic moments, reflecting the images and moods heard in the poems and projected onto a large screen throughout the performance. With the occasional soundscape, (captured locally - and in all weathers) the whole is a highly immersive experience; the culmination of five years' work.
"White Light White Peak", the book, is published by Fly on the Wall press - order a copy here: www.flyonthewallpoetry.co.uk/shop Copies for sale at a discount (and signed!) at the live event if you buy the programme, which contains a supplement of seven poems with photographs.
A review of White Light White Peak – The Book:
“A joyous book - one to be slowly savoured. The black and white photos are truly atmospheric, the snippets of prose down-to-earth and gently humorous, while the poems are a wonderful celebration of nature. Simon Corble produces a little bit of magic in White Light White Peak, capturing the ethereal beauty of England's first national park. This is a book to keep and cherish.”

Fuji Pro Neg. Hi film simulation
I thought it would be fun to try a Junichi Hakoyama shot. Of course, Hakoyama-san does it much better! Check out Hakoyama-san's stream if you haven't already.
