A Quick Word From Yours Truly


Hi, welcome to PJ's blog.

If you've checked out the "About Me" bit you'll see I'm a keen amateur photographer who enjoys all things digital. I mostly like photographing plants and landscapes as they are easy targets ;-) I used to work in Software which sounds more exciting than it is but am now officially a Snr. Project Planner having changed jobs after almost 25yrs in Software. I sometimes wish I could work in photography but that would probably become boring if I did it day in and day out. I used to sponsor a wolf called Luna until she sadly passed away, and love all things "wolfy". Anyhow enjoy the blog and hopefully I'll manage to keep it up to date with what I've been doing and my favourite things!

Hollibobs - Riverside Country Park

 

Went for a mooch along Riverside Country Park on Sunday with my Dad, we took the cameras along, I took the TZ90 this time as there were threats of potentially heavy showers. Fortunately no rain appeared to stop play and we had a good meander along, Dad pointing out all the plants in the hedgerows. Damsons, pears, rosehips to name but a few. A good place for foraging if you are in to that sort of thing!

Plenty of old boats in the water, benches to sit on along the pathways, some shingle areas reminiscent of the seaside and a few dogs enjoying cooling off in the water!

Kids catching crabs and generally enjoying paddling in what is a tidal River Medway. All very peaceful and good to be out in the sunshine.

There's a café and toilets plus a large children's play area behind the visitor centre and plenty of free parking.

Processed a couple of normal images through Aurora HDR 2018 to give them a bit of pop, indeed the bottom image on the right of the collage is one such instance. 

Hoping to head off to the Dockyard this week with Dad after a couple of dodgy wet days...
