I took a walk up to Glenamour Loch yesterday Tuesday the 18th of December 2012.
My first look was at the wee loch Glengarren where I took these first couple of pictures
I thought at first this was a discarded ice cream tub 'til I took a closer look
Glenamour Loch was reflective
Occasionally on the forest floor there was the odd bit of ice. This is a macro shot, the size of the icy lump is in context in the next picture
The blades of grass show it's size
Next I found a dead tree with a lot of fungi
In this last picture I took this close up but I failed to take one to show the true size of fungi. The largest of these was no more than 10 mm or 3/8th of an inch across. The branch was the thickness of a shepherds walking stick
That was an enjoyable stroll
These are fabulous Jim! What a wonderful time you must have had taking them! Frances
ReplyDeleteAwesome photos JIm, so unusual! Your previous post was happy and lots of fun, just what this girl needed.

Thanks Frances, we don't get the time on our walks to take pictures like this ,do we ?
ReplyDeleteThanks Rose, I could have lots of fun with my camera up in the tropics of the Antipodes. I'll have to think of a Christmas blog post.
