For a change we’d had a lovely day so around four I headed off for a walk, the big loop. It was quite chilly but, with some amazing clouds, I thought there might be a good sunset. By the time I’d got half way around the sky was beginning to turn red. What a sunset it turned out to be! Accompanied by a barn owl flying up and down the hedgerows – you can see it in the image above – the only disruptive element was the regular sound of a shot gun. Probably a local gamekeeper enjoying their entertainment at the cost of a few pigeons.
The heavy and continuous rain we’ve been having provided lots of interesting reflection possibilities too.

The sunset had slipped away by the time I got to Manor Vale but still bright thanks to the full moon.
