Walking, always...

Walking, walking, walking. Over the last few weeks the weather was great, the wild raspberries were ripe (now replaced by the ripening blackberry's) and the dog was in flying form.

Twice a day we ventured out, exploring, finding new paths and re-claiming the old ones, staying out longer and longer, resting in shady places, the dog swimming. Sometimes I bring the camera...

And now, as the rain is teeming down outside, it is a perfect time to look through some of those photos.
Depending on which path we take, left or right, we could be looking at the the colour pallet of the Bog and its flowering bog cotton or the lush greenery of the forest and canal. There are subtle changes to be observed every day.

Day at the beach

It is always a sure way to put a spring in the step. A very strange and overcast day, sometimes the sun pushed through creating fabulous luminous cloud formations. The air was sharp and cold .

Walking with Pia

Everyday we walk.
Getting into the habit of  having the camera with me, it does make you view things in a different way.

There was beautiful light today: a combination of sun, rain and wind... with the first licks of green appearing.
