New season - old friend

[Ann1e]

No luck with insect hunting today - they were much too sensible to venture out in the cold but on the way back home we made a detour through Ashridge and met up with an old friend and his followers -

1. He woke from a sleep as we arrived and started to wander off -



2. Well, maybe he did know we were there! -



3. A couple from the group - didn't your mum tell you it is rude to stick out your tongue? -



All taken with E-30, 70-300mm lens.

Did you Photoshop that sunshine in then 'Ann1e'? We were at Ashridge today for the Chiltern Fair and the weather was miserable!

Hello Jim -

We saw a good few vehicles making their way to the Monument - hope you had an enjoyable time and managed to keep warm. It wasn't really that cold, just a contrast to last week!

Having seen rain forecast for later in the day, Barrie and I were out very early (for a Sunday) and made our way first to the Mentmore area and then headed back via Ashridge. There was a fair bit of blue sky around at first but although there was none by the time I took these pix, it was still reasonably bright. Certainly no photoshop for me - I have to admit I'm not one who gets as much pleasure from pp-ing as some and I just use Picasa which has all the basics.

Regards,
Ann1e
