Title: On The Right Track
Location: Aldham, Near Marks Tey
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 24-105mm EF f/4 L IS USM
Notes: I had a lunchtime meeting in Marks Tey today, and so set off a little bit early to have a quick walk and look for a couple of caches. To begin with, the weather wasn’t very promising, but on my way back to the car, the sun poked through the clouds for a couple of seconds and I was able to capture this view with wonderful light.
Title: Boreham House
Location: Boreham, Chelmsford
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 24-105mm EF f/4 L IS USM
Notes: I had to pop over to the Parcel Force depot in Boreham this morning to pick up a package, and took the opportunity to stop at Boreham house for a quick picture. I liked the muted tones of the day and thought sepia suited the mood rather well. Compare this with Ken’s version of the same location from a few weeks ago!
Title: Marina Reflections
Location: Springfield Lock
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 24-105mm EF f/4 L IS USM
Notes: I took the opportunity to nip out for a breath of fresh air while the sun was shining today. And find another geocache or two. Once again, geocaching has taken me to a spot which I didn’t even know existed, and it’s lovely. It’s along the Chelmer & Blackwater Navigation, just downstream of the Essex Record Office, and is about the last bit of civilisation before you hit the more rural paths along the canal.
Title: Leaded Lights
Location: Harlow Common
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 17-85mm EF f/4-5.6 IS USM
Notes: I visited a client’s studio today to photograph some handbags for her website. This was the lovely view out of the window, once it had stopped raining.
Title: After Constable
Location: Little Baddow
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 17-85mm EF f/4-5.6 IS USM
Notes: A much more successful caching day today – I managed to find my 50th hide with Alistair’s assistance. This was taken on a short walk between two sites along the Chelmer & Blackwater Navigation, and reminded me of a Constable painting. I haven’t done anything to it, it’s as it came out of the camera.
Title: Sunny Stock
Location: Stock, Essex
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 17-85mm EF f/4-5.6 IS USM
Notes: A lovely day to be out and about. I made sure I had the camera on board, and managed a few minutes to take an image in Stock as I was passing through to a meeting in Billericay.
Title: Dusk On Writtle Green
Location: Writtle, Essex
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 24-105mm EF f/4 L IS USM
Notes: Despite the patchy weather, I managed to get out for a bit of fresh air this afternoon. But by the time I was heading home, dusk was beginning to settle in. This was taken as the light faded in Writtle.
