Flowers and other details/Charmouth 2012
Seaside Sunset/Charmouth Part Two.
Just a few more photographs from my Charmouth holiday. Being able to walk the beach at sunset was such a treat, I would go every day if I was lucky enough to live there. Wishing you a lovely weekend!

June
Hard to believe June has flown by so quickly! Here are some photos from the trusty Olympus XA3 this month, lets start with some botanical beauties:
We had to build this "bedouin tent" style arrangement over the plot for when the scorching sun was killing off the seedings, needless to say it went on to protect them from drowning too! Time to take it down this week, but doesn't it look nice and green? Certainly looking fuller these days!
The toughest part of this month was that my best friend Claire finally followerd her dream of moving away from suburbia and into Brighton. Big change for us, and considering we worked together too, it's now very strange to not see her there, but I am very excited for her, and can't wait to visit! Here's my fave 'gal before she went!

And finally one of our weather vane, I can't bear to think that the nights will start drawing in again now, not fair!
Hope you're having a good week! I'm a bit frazzled myself, counting down the days until seaside-holiday time!
End Of March
I decided to swap back to my Olympus XA3, well after my trusty Yashica gave up the ghost (despite Bruce's best attempts at fixing it!) I needed a trusty replacement! It can be a bit annoying to change the focus each time, but you can mostly trust it to behave! Just a few springtime shots from mine&Bruce&Jocks weekends in Kent recently, lots of walking, lots of rocks, and lots of trees! Bliss!
Eridge Park was a particularly good place to explore, the fantastic tower was built just before the turn of the 20th century, despite it looking rather mythical and medieval! The woods themselves were full of Yew trees, a very gothic and striking landscape - we'll be heading back there soon!
Now, lets see what April has to come!

Broadwater Warren's amazing trees, can anyone explain why?

Eridge Parks highest point in Kent, hello Surrey!
