Day 96 Above "The Heavens"

Just a couple of km form where I live - a favourite summer walk. This taken from above heavens looking across to the Cemetery where I took about half the photographs for this challenge.

Day 94: Oysterling (Crepidotus)

Koa bought this stick festooned with tiny mushrooms back from his walk yesterday, we went back this morning to look for some more.

On the way out that evening we spotted this full arc rainbow, with faint double  photographed from car park of Edgemoor Inn.  Too nice an opportunity not to take a picture.

Day 78: River Severn form Arlingham

Lots of squally showers and my lunchtime drive to take picture coincided with the worst of them. The photograph is anything but magnificent but best I could do on crutches - in the rain aon a slippery surface.  Still an amazingly wild place huge tidal range and the estuary one of most important wildlife areas in the country.

Day 76: Autumnal sky

More than hint of autumn colour in trees now.  Big brooding sky with the Severn in full flood just visible in the right-hand side of the picture.   This was a bit of an epic struggle on crutches - be nice to xome back at end of month and get the view I really wanted.

Day 67: Wildflower meadow

Ecotricity kindly  lent me an electric car to get around in whilst my leg is in plaster.  Ecotricity also lead sponsor of FGR - world's greenest football club. Complete with rapid car charger and lots of management for nature.  One of the features is the wildflowers planted as you arrive at the stadium. Took this one when I went to charge the car.

Day 18: Moody skies follow Hurricane Bertha

A morning of prolonged and lashing heavy rain. It eventually eased off in the afternoon and clear skies overnight.

This was remnants of Hurricane Bertha. Not a serious threat but still pretty impressive.
