A Different View


Back in October 2010 I went off to get a photo of a Triangulation Pillar on a hill just outside Didcot, since then the area has chanced so I thought it was time I took another photo

While walking there from where I left my car I took this photo of Didcot Power Station


Present day & I take a different route to get the photo passing a field of corn (Maze) that was cut

 The fields were quite wet from the rain we had

 The path was easy enough to follow

This view looks back to where I left my car


 Following the path takes you through a hedge where you look to wards Culham and the JET project

My first view of what I am looking for

This is what it looks like now. The small hill you see over to the right is made up of household rubbish that has been dumped by the council. It is still growing

Remember the fist photo well this is a crop of the one above and as near as I can get it to the original photo. The old power station has now gone, you might remember the photos I showed of it being demolished. The link will take you to another blog I wrote about the power station.

Pity about all that rubbish being dumped there by the council.

Os campos do milho colhido são todos iguais.
A natureza agradece o pousio até à próxima sementeira.
Abraço amigo.

This is very interesting. I love how the tradition is that there are paths through fields. Would never happen here.

Really beautiful skies. Those fields do look muddy!

Very nice scenes. I'd never know that was a rubbish dump if you didn't tell us. Sadly we humans make and dump a lot of garbage.

Sure looks different than North Idaho. But it has it unique beauty.
Coffee is on

I live within sight distance of a decommissioned power plant which they tried to demolish a couple of years ago but ran into complications after asbestos was discovered. Your scenery is quite different than the scenery around that plant; I prefer your scenery.

A path through the farmland. How interesting? I just stepped on a tiny piece of property up North a guy came up to the SUV asking what we were doing on his property. I was taking photos of the sunset. Be careful out there in the good ole U.S.A. Sounds like you are safer where you live with a path through the farmland.

I love how you've captured those lines through the fields. Thanks for linking up and for sharing your snaps with #MySundaySnapshot.
