Winter walk

To escape from soggy June I’ve decided to go back to January and a beautiful day – frosty with a chill in the air and a touch of mist, but flooded with bright sunshine.

Dermot and I travelled outside of London to Windsor, a royal town with an imposing castle which is said to be the Queen’s favourite abode. A long pathway stretches from the castle deep into Windsor Great Park, an avenue of trees, verdant countryside and a place where deer roam.

The Long Walk lives up to its name if you travel both ways. This day was superb for photography – plenty of light, figures to feature in the frame and beautiful colours. Some of the shots were perfect for indulging in my joy for monochrome and sepia. It was a day well spent and with memories to show for it.
