Title: Don’t Rock The Boat
Location: Heybridge Basin
Camera: Canon EOS 7D / 24-105mm EF f/4 L IS USM
Notes: I enjoyed a quick impromptu photowalk with a local Flickr friend this morning. We went to Heybridge Basin and on my way back to where I parked, I came across a group of canoeists paddling along the river. No sooner had I turned my back on then than there was much laughing and it turned out one of their number had managed to capsize his boat. They were all giggling madly as they righted the vessel and he crawled back in! Must have been cold, but apparently no harm done. See more shots here.

Title: Peaceful Moorings – December
Location: Sandford Mill Lock, Chelmer & Blackwater Navigation
Camera: Panasonic Lumix GF1 / 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 IOS
Notes: With the month rapidly dwindling, I decided to head to Sandford Mill Lock for my final scenic location shot of the year. The light was rather flat, and I had resigned myself to December’s shot not being particularly interesting when along came a couple of canoes to add some foreground detail. So there it is, Treasure Hunt Theme #12 – Scenic Location – December

Camera: Panasonic Lumix GF1 / 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 IOS
Notes: After enjoying a large Christmas dinner with mum and dad out at a local restaurant, we went for a constitutional to walk some of it off. There was some lovely light along the banks of the River Stour at Dedham.

Title: Peaceful Moorings – November
Location: Sandford Mill Lock, Chelmer & Blackwater Navigation
Camera: Canon EOS 7D / 24-105mm EF f/4 L IS USM
Notes: Almost out of month, I finally managed to get back to Sandford Mill Lock for my scenic location shot. We seem to have gone directly from summer to winter with the trees compared to October’s shot. The light wasn’t great, but I won’t be able to get back there before the month is done, so this will have to do.

Title: Peaceful Moorings – October
Location: Sandford Mill Lock, Chelmer & Blackwater Navigation
Camera: Canon EOS 7D / 24-105mm EF f/4 L IS USM
Notes: A quick walk along the canal today to take my shot for Treasure Hunt Theme #10 – Scenic Location – October. I was a bit disappointed that the trees have still not really turned for autumn here, so decided a mono treatment would work quite nicely.

Location: Sandford Mill Lock, Chelmer & Blackwater Navigation
Camera: Canon EOS 7D / 24-105mm EF f/4 L IS USM
Notes: I just remembered that I needed to take my monthly scenic shot before the end of the month. So I made a quick trip to Sandford Mill Lock and found this rather cloudy scene.
