I know what you mean - one jumped out in front of our car while driving a couple of weeks ago. I was so relieved we didn't collide with it, I forgot all about getting a photo!

Nos 1,2, and 3 were taken without the zoom, 1a,2a, and 3a the zoom was open fully. No 4 is a shot of Dickies Meadow and No 5 is the plastic tree on the track from Gallows Hall Farm.

Whoa! That's some lens you've got there. You could do some serious peeping tom work if you were so inclined. Hahhah

Very interesting to see the solar electric panels. A great shot.

That is just what I aim for...to give those who cannot visit, a taste of the place...but I wasn't sharing my fish and chips .
The fish was good, the chips a bit ordinary(and I didn't eat many of them).

Rob that focus blur seems like a soft focus setting & Frank, how many of them little ratbags where there? I think I could make out about 24 of them!

Airports are fascinating places - so many stories unfolding. Many, many years ago I was meeting my then boyfriend at Toronto airport after 3 months apart. A newspaper photographer snapped us unawares. He did contact us for permission just before it was published, and the caption was "did you miss me?". I wonder what was going on with the family being dropped off, or the young men sharing a ciggie?
That pizza looks really good!
