High Summer in North Shropshire

[cmcmck]

We finally had some decent weather yesterday.

I have also treated myself to a new camera- a Sony 6000 mirrorless so I needed to experiment.

We took a walk out towards the Huntington farms.

The fields are turning gold:



Christ Church, Wellington across a wheat field.



And the golds looking over towards the town of Ketley:



Ivy!



The footpaths have full Summer growth:



And the foxgloves are beginning to be past their best:



Rotten to the heart:



This feather is either owl or one of the big raptors.  It even looks silent:



And the thistles are in bloom:



A farm track with such a sky!  This was the route to Huntington:



I'll post more from the walk later!

Stunning!! Love that last one to close the set :D Really makes you feel like you're in a different place.

The countryside here is full of these little farm tracks and every walk feels like an adventure.

We've been here six years now and are still finding new ones!

[vriddy]

That sounds wonderful!! Finding new paths is always a delight :D

North Shropshire is extremely rural. There are only two large(ish) towns in the entire region.

Lovely photos of a lovely place! I particularly like this one and also the last one. They both make me want to step into them and explore!

[cmcmck]

You'd find plenty of footpaths and woodland- hill country too!

How beautiful! I love the feather.

[cmcmck]

That just caught my eye.

Beautiful! I love the landscapes, and the details. The last one, with the farm track, is a great invitation to go for a walk.

[cmcmck]

I'll post more pics that'll show you where it goes later on.
