2805 Turned Out Nice Again

Here we are at the end of May, and in England we're having the same kind of relentlessly rainy days that we had in the winter. That's how an ordinary length of pavement can become a lake!

1704 Dissolving in Rain

The sun looked as if it was going to come out a few minutes before this, then as I walked the dog, this happened. A little Turneresque perhaps?

0604 Plum Winter

It often happens - your plum and cherry trees look good blossoming profusely, whether they're fruit trees or ornamentals. Then you get a week like this with pesky winds and sudden showers, and the ground is covered with confetti!

1202 Windswept Riverside

0101 Happy New Year, and welcome to Sensory Photography!

New Year means new ventures for many of us, and probably frustrated results down the road. As things stand, I wanted to create a space where I could put up a daily photo if that's feasible, and where I can write the occasional article.
