DEVON is a large county in southwestern England

 

The name "Devon" derives from the ancient Dumnonia, which was home to the independent kingdom of Brythonic Celtic speaking people who inhabited this area of the southwestern peninsula of Britain continuously from through the Roman era until partial absorption into the English-speaking Kingdom of Wessex some time in the eighth or ninth century.

I got out of the car when I got home and I had my camera with me (of course!) Spotted this tiny 3mm fly on my headlight.

The aquilegias self-seed everywhere in my garden but I love them.

Another Halloween Composition, Created from a old photo l took last year ,

As a night photographer I'm no stranger to shooting through til daybreak - but usually it's the shorter nights of summer, which coincide with warmer conditions.

 

Last night was different though. To mark the longest night I set out to shoot a series of lightpainting images. Well, in fact, I set out to shoot some night sky stuff but the weather had other ideas. Instead I turned to lightpainting and at one point (above) found myself seeking shelter from persistent drizzle in the back of an artic trailer parked nearby. Jules Marshall's recent lunchtime sessions provided the inspiration for such a workplace.

 

This was a little bit after the halfway point. I made it home shortly after first light. Yaaawwn.

Inch beach on the Dingle Penisular in Southern Ireland. Amazing place. You can drive onto the beach here and it was my first time on a beach since my accident in 1972!! Loved it!!!

I have been out of photography for quite a long time...well long story short..I ruined my equipment in one of my treks back home..and I couldnt get back on the saddle..just not feeling it anymore..I am still trying to grapple with it at times and I hope I can come around quickly enough...

 

Anyway, I am in the UK for a few months and eventhough I could not venture out much as it has already become pretty cold and murky here, We had a lovely sunday and thought I shouldnt be wasting it...So we had headed to the Warwick Castle. This is the boathouse across the Avon River.

 

I happened to buy a new camera before I got here (yes a new one) and I am again taking my steps back into where I used to be...for so long, but then I find it extrememly difficult to do it..I hesitated a lot but then shot a few pics out there and thought of sharing one and make myself more regular with all your streams...

 

Hope all is well with you all and I sincerely thank everyone who wrote to me and visit my stream asking about how I am doing...there is never such a feeling that you get out of someone dropping by to ask of you...Thanks again for all that and I hope I will be able to regain my confidence and my long lost passion...

Old Sarum (Latin: Sorviodunum) is the site of the earliest settlement of Salisbury, in England. The site contains evidence of human habitation as early as 3000 BC. Old Sarum is mentioned in some of the earliest records in the country. It is located on a hill about two miles north of modern Salisbury next to the A345 road.

 

Old Sarum was originally an Iron age hill fort strategically placed on the conjunction of two trade routes and the River Avon. The hill fort is broadly oval in shape, 400 metres (1,300 ft) in length and 360 metres (1,180 ft) in width; it consists of a double bank and intermediate ditch with an entrance on the eastern side. The site was used by the Romans, becoming the town of Sorviodunum. The Saxons used the site as a stronghold against marauding Vikings, and the Normans built a stone curtain wall around the Iron age perimeter and a centrally placed castle on a motte protected by a deep dry moat. A royal palace was built within the castle for King Henry I and subsequently used by Plantagenet monarchs. A Norman cathedral and bishop's residence were built at the western end of the town.

 

In 1219, the cathedral was demolished in favour of the new one built near the river and the townspeople moved down to the new city, then called New Salisbury or New Sarum. The castle fell out of use and was sold for materials by King Henry VIII.

 

By the 19th century, the settlement was officially uninhabited and yet still had formal parliamentary representation, making it the most notorious of the rotten boroughs that existed before the Reform Act 1832.

 

It is now an English Heritage property and open to the public.

I've been working on this shot on and off for three weeks since I took it, I know theres a good image in this RAW but just cant bring it out with my limited pp'ing skills, this has ended up being well over processed...but lost patience with it so this will have to do.

Port Sunlight is a model village, suburb .At the 2001 Census, its population was 1,450

 

Port Sunlight was built by Lever Brothers to accommodate workers in its soap factory (now part of Unilever); work commenced in 1888. The name is derived from Lever Brothers' most popular brand of cleaning agent, Sunlight.

 

Port Sunlight contains 900 Grade II listed buildings, and was declared a conservation Area in 1978. Port Sunlight has been informally suggested for world Heritage Site status to protect it from development and to preserve the unique character for future generations; however, it is not yet on the current UK list.

I'm pretty sure there's a better shot here somewhere but I've photographed these Foster + Partners 'More London' buildings a few times now and I'm struggling to find it.

An Alien Invasion?

Lenticular clouds in the UK are a rare occurrence, so when I had seen these 'lenticular' type clouds in the sky on Friday I just had to stop and photography them.

a.k.a Some weird stones. Was raining the whole bloody time so no good photos of England i’m afraid (big surprise?). The rain must have stopped just long enough for me to take a photo of this place.
