At last a sunny day

For those of you that are sick of Fungi pics.....I have some more. The good news is, that this will be the last lot. Had a sunny afternoon wandering around Hay wood again. Will be very busy again this week until Wednesday afternoon. so this set will be the last for a few days.


These 2 were taken by the missus with her 4.0mp compact Canon....not bad















These last 2 were the same subject. Used the flash on the second shot, which seems to have had a reverse effect

More Mushrooms

Have not been able to get out this week as have picked up a big decorating job that should tide me over for a bit. I will post the rest of the pics we took in Hay Wood on Tuesday afternoon








Whoops here comes the missus.....quick hide Max

Mushroom Woods

Hi all. Took Chris and Max to Hay Wood, Baddesley Clinton this afternoon before the light....what there was of it....went altogether. Another dreadfully dreary day
What a wonderful place. Its owned by the Forestry Commission, and the footpaths are really looked after.
Anyway, will not bore you with a history lesson, but will just post some of the many fungi pics I took.











I've saved the best till last
A real fairy Toadstool, and mushroom city on an old tree stump

Round Robin Competition entry

This photo is my entry to the weekly Round Robin competition.

The Theme for the competition in ' GONE'

This picture shows a bridge on the Kenilworth to Berkswell branch line that was opened in 1884.
The tracks have long since been lifted, and the bridges go nowhere.

Kingsbury Water Park

If you have read Max's blog tonight, you will know we took him a few miles to Kingsbury Water Park today.
This is a series of gravel pits that were filled in many years ago.
Anyway let me show you some of the pics I took today;



Very tame Geese


Some of the lakes are quite shallow here......something the Swans seem to be taking advantage of

I took these 2 straight into the Sun, with the WB turned right down



Just a few more Autumn images from this really nice place.
