in 'our' forest






A couple of shots I took while walking this week through early morning mist in 'our' forest.  Thought I'd better clear this up, since some readers seem to think that we actually own this forest.  The answer is "no".   





Best of all worlds really, it's on our doorstep, well maintained, safe and ... empty.  We see more deer than people up there  so it just feels like it's ours.

Hope you have been enjoying the Big Outdoors this weekend.

  5. How wonderful to have all the joys and none of the responsibility of owning that property.
    The photos are magic but a little errie too. My imagination tells me the headless horseman might burst out of that mist.

  7. Oh Sharon
    what a beautiful image you've captured.
    I'll be in France in June and we will be having picnics in the forest on the edge of my DD village in Burgundy - so special!

    Wishing you a wonderful week

  17. Divine....in fact I've done an etching of 'our' forest here in Australia...while we don't have deer, we've had a koala, a few wallabies and lots and lots of kookaburras and cockatoos. But alas...I'm about to leave it all and head for Paris.
