Wild Orchids.

The meadow where we walk the dog is covered with these rare orchids.

Starting a new brew. This time I’m making “Stars & Stripes”, an American Pale Ale from The Greater Good. Should be drinking in about 2 weeks. 🍺

Sunset from last night

I was presented with this sunset around 8:45pm yesterday when I took the dog out for his "evening constitutional." The colours were amazing and the iPhone did a reasonable job at rendering them, with a little help from Lightroom.

We drove to the Cotswold Water Park yesterday for a bit of R and R. It was bright, but there was a cold wind if you weren't in a sheltered spot. Didn't stop a few hardy souls from venturing out on (and in) the water, though.

We've got new neighbours.

These ladies arrived in the field at the bottom of the garden today. Parker wasn't too impressed.

It's times like this that I wish I'd stumped up the additional cash for the iPhone 11 Pro to get the longer lens. I spotted these two in the field opposite our house whilst walking the dog this morning.

The pear tree in the field opposite is full of blossom. We’ll be picking pounds and pounds of fruit in the autumn. πŸ“·

I love the early morning light.

I took this whilst out walking the dog about 7am today. The light coming between the trees made this shot.

It was good to get out on Ruby tonight. Does anyone else name their bike?

Day trip to the coast.

It was great to escape and get away from staying at home for the first time in months. We packed a picnic, jumped in the car and drove to Lymington in Hampshire for some sunshine and sea air β€” great combination! πŸ“·
