Photo Gallery

An eclectic selection of photos new and old. I have been taking photos since I was eight; I now enjoy digital photography, but I don’t ‘do technical’, I just enjoy pointing and shooting. Most recently I have been taking all my photos with my phone. I snap anything and everything to use in my blogs, on Facebook and Instagram.

October was very mild. I didn’t get far afield, but we did go to a pumpkin field. Sunny Fields Farm turned out to be more than just a pumpkin field and included hot pumpkin food, all in a socially distanced setting.
