Came across these cottages while out visiting a church the other week
Taking Part in My Little Corner of the World Our World Tuesday and Imag-in-ing, you can find all the links in the right hand column Take care everyone.
This week the Church Explorer returns to Ickford to show some new photos of this beautiful old church that he did not have time to take the last time he visited.
Clearly it was an odd week for our sky because on Monday morning I woke up to find the place was covered in Snow
Not the sort of thing I expected to see when I went down to get breakfast
Last year I purchased a new camera changing from my old Canon EOS70D DSLR which was a crop camera meaning the sensor was not full size like on the old 35mm SLR's. I decided to upgrade to a new Canon EOS R6 DSLR mirror-less camera which was a full frame version. The camera came with a new mount that meant I would need new lenses though at least Canon made an adaptor to take the old lenses. I purchased the camera with the standard lens that came with it which was 20mm-105mm. this was a reasonable wide angle zoom. I id like how the camera responded and the lens was good enough for most things I did but I felt the zoom length did not quite do what I needed so I ordered a new longer zoom which was 24mm-240mm, the wide angle was the same but it gave a little more reach on the zoom. In March I took the new lens out for try as day or so after getting it.
This week the Church Explorer visits St Leonard Waterstock, a place I have driven near to many times but on this occasion I was nearly thwarted due to a road closure.
Rather that show the clouds I took from my garden early this week I though some of the the Oxfordshire countryside more apt being as I was out visiting some churches near Beckey. Before going on to the last one I stopped to have a coffee that I had brought with me, while drinking it I decided to go out near where I pared and get some photos.
Happy Skywatch
Yesterday on WW I posted a photo of a robin the lives in our garden. A little wile ago it built a nest in a box I put up for that purpose. Well it had some you young and the reason for that beak full of worms was to feed them. It is quite tame and hopes around your feet to collect them while we work in the garden even trilling at you to dig some more when it cannot get any.
This morning on the patio I spotted something hopping around then on to a flower pot
