A moody day at the pond
Just some shots from my mid afternoon walk. Clocks change this weekend and I get madly depressed by it every year.
My plan is to try and get out for daytime walks every day. If I don't I may as well hibernate.Wednesday 25 October 2023
It's damp and autumn - therefore mushrooms
It's that time of year that I'll be taking a few pics of fungi. The damp conditions are just perfect for it. What I'm not so good at is finding the perfect shot, or indeed taking it! The dynamic range between dark backgrounds and bright white mushrooms always makes it tricky!
Bella's game at the brook. Roll the stick into the water and back out.
And here are the fungi:

Beautiful day saw a couple of pheasants
A pretty nice walk. There was a bit of rain circling the pond and a few spits. A tiny rainbow over the trees. I saw a pair of pheasants in the grass. Couldn't really get a great shot of them, but it was nice to see. Still fairly dry underfoot, but I'm wearing boots now. Enjoying getting a bit of fresh air, and getting the decent camera out again. The long lens really gives a different perspective on life. The Olympus picks up the colour nicely.

An evening at the pond
A rather nice evening at Fleet Pond - it's getting dark earlier now, but it's nice to get out and about with some fresh air.

A misty morning at the pond
Was treated to a rather nice morning at the pond on the way to the station. I really do like this time of year and how the seasons's are changing. The heron's have been missing from the pond for a few years. They've been around, but not so prolific.
Shot two behind the scenes - the whole view. Several cormorants also lurking around on the island.
I really love how even in a small part of Hampshire there are magical images like this to be made.
It may be getting colder, but take a look out there and discover the world.
