June Photography Walk to Cottesbrooke


Finally a Saturday with weather good enough to walk out in and skies tempting enough to photograph


The rain was only recently behind us and the trail trough the woods was muddy, rutted, scarred by off road tyre tracks.


Gaps in the tree line gave glimpses 


of the landscapes beyond.


We found bees feasting in the dappled shade


and a very active colony creating a hive in a hollow tree.



In spite of the recent rain


ground at the edge of the crops


was cracked and dry.






We waded through long grasses


and found the footpath across a field of sheep.


There was much to explore  


both inside the church


and around the village.


A solitary boy with his skateboard 


played alone on the main street.


The village seemed quiet as the grave


 peaceful as a summer afternoon.

This was a walk of many textures, to see more images from Cottesbrooke please visit our Flickr set here
