After my visit to Danby I followed the road, not really knowing where I was heading, but ended up in the lovely village of Lealholm. It’s quite small but has a village shop, tea rooms, garage, plant nursery, a primary school, both a church and a chapel, a railway station, plus a football pitch where […]
Yesterday I took this image of some silage bales. There being two contrasting colours of plastic covering I wondered whether it might work as a black and white.

A Sunday afternoon stroll around the village, along the river and then up onto the hill. Returning back down I took some quick shots of a barn and some farm machinery which caught my eye in the final rays of sunshine.
Despite the drizzly, grey weather I had to get out and have a walk, so drove to Lastingham. I hadn’t been there for a while and thought I’d wander around the village and, if the rain wasn’t too heavy, head up on to Spaunton Moor. There weren’t many people about and judging by the number
