This is the River Meavy on the south-west side of Dartmoor. Just before Shaugh Bridge, seen in the centre of the picture, it joins the River Plym, which flows in from the left some 40 yards away. This then flows south through a heavily wooded valley and enters the sea via Plymouth Sound. The land here is within Dewerstone Wood and is part of the National Trust's Goodameavy Estate. It was formerly an area of much industrial activity including small tin and copper mines and quarries. A short distance away china clay was also extracted.

We get avocets along our coastline but I have never seen any in the water. This was taken at the Wetland Trust in Arundel.

Oxburgh Hall is a moated country house in Oxborough, Norfolk, England, today in the hands of the National Trust. Built around 1482 by Sir Edmund Bedingfeld, Oxburgh has always been a family home, not a fortress. The manor of Oxborough came to the Bedingfeld family by marriage before 1446, and the house has been continuously inhabited by them since their construction of it in 1482, the date of Edward Bedingfeld's licence to crenellate. A fine example of a late medieval, inward-facing great house, Oxburgh stands within a square moat about 75 metres on each side, and was originally enclosed; the hall range facing the gatehouse was pulled down in 1772 for Sir Richard Bedingfeld, providing a more open U-shaped house, with the open end of the U facing south. The entrance, reached by a three-arched bridge on the north side, is dramatised by a grand fortified gatehouse, evoking the owner's power and prestige, though as fortification its value is largely symbolic; it is flanked by tall polygonal towers rising in seven tiers, with symmetrical wings extending either side that reveal nothing on the exterior of their differing internal arrangements. About 1835 the open end of the U was filled in with a picturesque, by no means archaeologically correct range that recreated the central courtyard. Other Victorian additions include the Flemish-style stepped gables, the massive southeast tower, the oriel windows overhanging the moat (illustration, left) and terracotta chimneys. Four towers were added to the walled kitchen garden. The hall is well known for its priest hole. Due to the Catholic faith of the Bedingfeld family, a Catholic priest may have had to hide within the small disguised room in the event of a raid. The room is reached via a trapdoor, which when closed blends in with the tiled floor. Unlike many similar priest holes, the one at Oxburgh is open to visitors. The hall is also notable for the Oxburgh Hangings, needlework hangings by Mary, Queen of Scots and Bess of Hardwick. Mary worked on these while imprisoned in England, in the custody of the Earl of Shrewsbury. The estate has a number of woodland walks, including a 'Woodland Explorer' trail. Oxburgh Hall is a popular location for film and television series, including brief appearances in the Dad's Army episode "Museum Piece", and later in You Rang, M'Lord?. It was the major setting for the 1994 television dramatisation of Love on a Branch Line, a novel by John Hadfield. It is a Grade I listed building, the highest-level designation.

I've been wanting to shoot this idea for a long long time, i've just never had a girl i wanted to do it with.
I finally got the opportunity to while working with a friend in Antwerp last week.
I wanted to make something with a harmonius feeling.
I have had so much around me lately and no time to create. Its sad.

We paid a winter visit to Cotehele in the far east of Cornwall almost a year ago and were blessed with some excellent weather.
This Grade II*-listed Chapel of St George & St Thomas A'Becket, dating from around 1490, was built by Sir Richard Edgcumbe in memory of his escape on this spot from Sir Henry Trenowth of Bodrugan in 1483. The chapel is situated overlooking the River Tamar a couple of hundred yards below Cotehele House, which was the Edgcumbe family's home. This is part of the National Trust's Cotehele Estate.
Sir Richard Edgcumbe was a Lancastrian and had his lands confiscated in 1471 by the Yorkist Edward IV, although these were returned to him the next year. Angered by Richard of Gloucester’s usurpation of the throne in 1483 and the rumours of the murder of Edward V and his brother in the Tower of London, Edgcumbe joined the rebellion led by Henry Stafford, 2nd Duke of Buckingham to dethrone the Yorkist Richard III and replace him with the Lancastrian Henry Tudor.
When the rebellion collapsed and Henry’s ships fled, Edgcumbe’s arrest was ordered and a troop of soldiers commanded by the notoriously brutal Sir Henry Trenowth of Bodrugan were sent to arrest him. He hid himself on the wooded hillside of his Tamarside home, Cotehele, and when his hiding-place was discovered, threw his pursuers off the scent by filling his cap with stones and throwing it into the river, fooling his pursuers into thinking he had drowned and thus escaping certain death.
After his escape he fled to Brittany and joined Henry Tudor with whom he returned to England in 1485. He was knighted later that year after the Battle of Bosworth, where Henry Tudor (who became King Henry VII) and the Lancastrians were victorious.

It's 8 months today since I lost Hercule.
The grief is still overwhelming and I've found myself unable to do any photography, as Hercule was always with me.
To distract myself, I spent six months decorating my house (probably poorly ) and although I have had many falls and seizures, I've also really enjoyed it.
During this time, I have discovered a love of painting, especially acrylic pouring, so I thought, why not share my art with you all until, hopefully, I can face my camera again?
I hope you're all well. Big love to you all 💜

It started snowing on the afternoon of the 8th and continued through the 9th of February, which brought the birds flocking to the feeders :)
Spring is approaching. The forest’s changing its colour slowly. A squirrel made an appearance. He's moving fast, climbing trees with ease. But he's never afraid to climb them because he trusts his abilities. But he sometimes slows down and stops on a branch and just looks around the nature. He likes to be on top of trees, top of branches and staying there, over the forest.

The irresponsible stupidity of some people never ceases to amaze me.
There are frequent cliff falls here at Birling Gap, and yet people still go to the very edge and look over. I couldn't believe it when I saw this family with 2 young children walk to the edge, although they did take hold of their hands before they got there. Plus it was blowing a gale and a small child could easily get blown over.

Wild Canada Lynx in Ontario, Canada.
Sit with them quietly and they will show you their hearts.
Sit with them kindly and they will help you locate yours.
I know you've suffered
But I don't want you to hide
It's cold and loveless
I won't let you be denied
Soothing
I'll make you feel pure
And trust me
You can be sure
I want to reconcile the violence in your heart
I want to recognize your beauty is not just a mask
I want to exorcise the demons from your past
I want to satisfy the undisclosed desires in your heart
You trick your lovers
That you're wicked and divine
You may be a sinner
