Nature through the eyes of my camera

Sunday 22nd August Dunwich Heath Having booked a slot at Dunwich Heath National Trust site I was able to stroll around the heather ladened heath with my husband, daughter and granddaughter. The heath was a mass of purple, dotted with the occasional splash of yellow gorse. My aim today was to help my granddaughter with her photography.  She has a good eye for a photo and enjoyed herself.  The image below she called a shady spot. There were beautiful clouds in the sky today. We did a circular walk and stopped at the cafe for refreshments before taking a stroll down to the beach.

 This year I wanted to showcase the images which I felt were the best I had taken in any one month. They won't necessarily be wildlife orientated and could include landscape or architecture. AUGUST Not so exciting as last month but there has been some wonderful weather and that has brought the butterflies out. A few days have been spent on the north coast and a very enjoyable one at Dunwich Heath. The heath is well known for its blooming heather in August and this year it has been spectacular. There were also several 'Painted Ladies' that had flown over from the continent. A new insect for me was the red banded sand wasp .
