Re: Ray's Photos
Still struggling to get through April, with the knowledge that I have taken getting on for 1,000 photos since then: combination of new camera, regular trips out into Somerset and Devon countryside and my garden going into overdrive.
Today, starting with 19 April and a trip north to East Quantoxhead, where the foothills of the Quantock Hills dip down into the Bristol Channel
On the Rise
Inland from the coastal path
Bucket and Spade Not Required
Pebble beach in Excelsis
Incoming
The Duck House
East Quantoxhead Village pond
The Big House: Garden
Pantiles

The cherries in the garden giving it plenty
