Manchester’s winter haven
This was a return visit to Fletcher Moss Park, a beautiful nature spot in Didsbury, south Manchester.
The last time I wandered around there with my camera was in late summer 2018, when it was a lush riot of colour. The park’s famous Poplar walkway was full and verdant.
In January the great trees were bare and mournful. The rock garden was showing signs of death and decay. But amongst this were the early green shoots of Spring, those signs of hope.
The colour cast of my two Fletcher Moss sets is very different. But Manchester folk still visit to walk their dogs, stretch their legs and enjoy this city haven – whatever the season.

Love the wintry barrenness combined with the little shoots of hope! Great series of shots, Mike! :)
