Every day I walk, and every day I have a camera (or two) with me. I never know the subject of my photos in advance. Everything is a happy accident - "serendipity". Perhaps, I will take the perfect photo. Meanwhile, my photos are useful and helpful. The road was wet (there is a spring in it) and the sun was shining on the yellow gorse and amber trees. There was a golden and blue reflection in the water. The sun is low in January and the trees throw long shadows across the fields. I saw a bird in a hedge among ivy berries. Is it in the photo? It's not - it had flown away. In its stead, there is shredded plastic - familiar after music festivals. People joke - they are called "witches' knickers"! One hedge is in shadow, the other side of the road is in sunshine. And the colour of the deep sea is like the wet road.
