Lessons learnt

When we were in London in the summer we went to the Lomography store and purchased some film.  The conditions to get the best photos from this film are bright sunshine and then lots of colours which will then come through beautifully.  Of course we're not experts and know this now we have had a film devleoped.  

The first part of our film was taken in London on a really cloudy day, in St Ives as the sun was going down and then on Sunday just gone when the sun did come out....hmm

Here are some of my favourites from the film.  Lesson learnt: put film in camera if conditions suit and use it up sooner than 6 months.

St Ives

Sunday wanderings

All good things come to an end

We've been getting out as much as we can while being off work for the Christmas holidays and so yesterday we took a drive to Arlesford.  Having just taken down our Christmas tree it was nice to see that Arlesford were clinging onto Christmas as long as possible with wreaths lining most the front doors.  I'm also loving the Christmas trees above the doors!

I'm back to work tomorrow, it only feels like yesterday I was saying we were off to Devon.  I'm looking forward to getting my brain in gear again but will still be living for the weekend when we can go wandering again.

 

Oh I'm a sucker for any animal!

Ahh shy couple :)

The Vyne

We have a National Trust property a few miles from our house and so a couple of weekends ago we decided to have a look around.  I can't believe we haven't visited The Vyne sooner - the Tudor property is set in huge grounds which are perfect for a nice picnic so I'm sure we will be back next spring.

Birthday sunshine

Today is my birthday and I asked the other half if we could go for a walk to see what is left of the autumn season.  Since the wedding it's been a bit mad and the change in season has gone before us though it's still so mild - I don't think I've seen this much sunshine on this day before!

Coping well with entering the late twenties....
