No words... Just sat with jaw on the floor...

Mate. You would be amazed what you find within easy reach of home with a little search.
Well I'm sure there are plenty of nice places near you! Have you ever been to the West Midlands? It's not as pretty as Essex! :D

Fingers crossed I haven't shared this one before... If I have, let me know and I'll do the ol' switcharoo.

An old windmill, missing its blades. This one's a bit of a mystery to me as to why someone would have kept sheep here as it's in a seasonally flooded wetland area! Must have been put in place before anyone realised.

That's one heck of a daily commute to the Hill! About 16,800Km's each way! Now that's devotion! ;)

Oh, and I loved the Range Rover with the grasses growing through it, but was rather annoyed that I couldn't get a clear shot of it without trespassing... Putting a shipping container in front of it is so inconsiderate of you...
Was it made by Dyson?

Well you've carved out a niche for yourself with this series. I like this one. It's a bit calmer than some of the other painted ones.

I was born in Worcester....
 
Blue skies? Even we had some yesterday.

Phi Phi Island. Funny name, incredible place.
Lovely. Next time you go I'll carry your bags!

Well Worcester is a bit prettier than Dudley!

Of course Southend is very pretty! :D

It used to have trains stopping when the blues were at home, not sure if it does anymore,
I doubt they use a train for the blues travelling fans. Maybe a taxi?
 
Another Dutch street scene. Comments always appreciated.


Hague canal
by another scotsman, on Flickr

Just looking at those cars parked that close to the edge of the canal makes me nervous. :eek:

Of course if you are going to live there then you just have to get used to it. But still.

Oh, are these right-hand drives (I wouldn't think so) or do people just scoot over and get out on the passenger side?

I'm sure you get used to it (or get wet). They drive on the wrong side of the road in Holland, just like you guys in the US:)

To be honest I’m a bit bored of the owls myself, but I haven’t had a chance to shoot much other than what I grab on my way to and from work lately. I’m itching to get out and shoot some sunrise landscapes over Easter weekend, hopefully the weather will play ball. Until then, this will have to do:
