Where Fools Dare to Tread….

Posted on February 26, 2025 by Guthlac

It is that time of year. Yesterday felt like spring had sprung? This is a fools game which I have played before. In 2023 I wrote about how late February did feel very spring like. Then of course just two … Continue reading →

Last Tree?…

Posted on February 25, 2025 by Guthlac

Is this the first or last tree in Blaby District Council? I’m really not sure other than it depends on where you observe the tree from. The same question could be asked about the ruins of St. Mary in Arden … Continue reading →

Different Views…

Passenger Seat…

Posted on February 20, 2025 by Guthlac

Some Babble…

Posted on February 9, 2025 by Guthlac

When is brunch brunch? Not sure but I went out for brunch this morning. It was one of those wonderfully dull days you get in February. It lacked the dark intensity of January and was… well February. Does this make … Continue reading →

Splish Splash…

Posted on February 6, 2025 by Guthlac

Frost and fog. A cold morning in the park. However, it does feel just a little different. Maybe wishful thinking on my part but there was a slight feel of the seasons turning. Expect blizzards. Make for interesting photographs. Ummm … Continue reading →

Trainspotting…

Posted on February 5, 2025 by Guthlac

Whenever I hear or read the word ‘Trainspotting”, I always hear the opening ‘Choose Life‘ monologue from the film of the same name. (BTW I don’t choose Heroin!). When I started to edit the image of the train I noticed … Continue reading →

The One That Got Away…
