Effectively this is a follow on from my previous post from the same day’s walk here. The photos in the previous one were orientated around the scenery on the day and this one covers some of the antiquities and remains in the Headland Warren area generally. Walking south from [...] Frost and fog on the edge of Dartmoor I set off towards the moors looking for a day similar to the one in the last two posts – clear and cold. On the southern edge of the moors it looked as though the weather was not at all good and I [...]
In a sense this is “part 2″ of my previous post here. The images were all taken on the same day and, while showing quite a wild part of the UK, also indicate some of the ways the moors have been used over centuries. The work of man can be seen [...] I guess I was in a thoughtful mood while I was out today and the title of this occurred to me while I was driving up to the moors. We have had a few frosty mornings over the past few days (temperatures around -3 deg C) but this was the first [...] Again I was thinking that the really cold weather was over but today (Christmas Eve) I went over the Dart in Totnes early this morning and saw some ice again so I headed out a little later to walk the river bank with the camera.
Despite only being around -2 deg [...]
I thought that the really cold weather was maybe over around Totnes by now (22 December 2010) but checking the thermometer this morning it had hit -6 deg C overnight. The minor road I live on has had little traffic so had some aspects of a skating rink but I’d arranged [...]
Looking out there was quite a noticeable hoarfrost however the sun was coming out so I decided to take a walk to see what was around. I was not the only one looking around as can be seen above. The (grey) squirrel seemed to want to play “hide and seek” with [...]
It was another bitterly cold night in Totnes with the temperature down to -6.3 deg C according to my thermometer (8/9 December 2010). Not quite the lowest in the past couple of weeks but close and a hard frost everywhere. However there was a little sun and promise of more so [...]
It was quite early and with one of the first frosts of autumn on the ground. I decided to get out and walk down the river Dart a little way from Totnes. The early wintery light on the river and the frost made for some good photography. The frost [...] This posting pre-dates the previous two in practice but I had not had a chance to work on the images I took until now. Just after the new year (but before the big snow) I drove up through the country (M5/M6). The previous night had seen some of the lowest temperatures. Close to Worcester [...] |
