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!

Mooch Around Trosley Country Park

 

So this off Friday saw me and Dad head along to Trosley Country Park after lunch as the sun attempted to breakthrough the clouds.

Not a bad afternoon wandering through the woodland, kinda following the red trail which ultimately led back to the car park having started from the café.

We both took the mirrorless cameras along, Dad's is a Sony Alpha, mine obviously the M50 and fitted the usual 18-150mm lens so I can get a decent reach.

Trosley Park has a few quirky areas including a Woodland Orchestra, this is Dad below tinkering on the xylophone.


Did a little impromptu video of him playing the glockenspiel but a bit on the large file size to post here. All good fun though and the kids love this area, there always seems to be some around every time we come to this park. 

It's not too far to walk the circular route but can be uneven ground underfoot and some areas are quite muddy despite the lack of much rain. All churned up either by park vehicles or more than likely motorbikes.

Anyway it helped to pass an afternoon and gets me some well needed exercise.
