Claude Monet's garden. Giverny, France.
|
 |
|
The house overlooks the flower garden
|
|
 |
|
Some of the colours are stunning
|
|
 |
|
On the opposite side of the road is the famous water garden

|
The house where the artist Monet spent his later years has been restored much as he would have known it, and is open to the public.
We visited there in early September

Slow journey to work today
|
|
I had to keep stopping to capture some images from the forest in Autumn. After a particularly dry and hot year the colours are just tremendous.
The column of steam is from the sugar beet plant.

Fungus hunting in Thetford Forest
|
 |
|
The sun slants through the trees
|
|
 |
|
And the leaves that have turned colour drop to the floor
|
|
 |
|
This was our haul, two edible ones amongst them
|
| | View all 6 photos... |
|
An organised day, discovering which wild fungus are good to eat and which it is far better to stay away from.
As Autumn comes to this part of England some of the colours are brilliant

Mont St Michel, Normandy, France
|
 |
|
Viewed from Arromanches early evening
|
|
 |
|
Viewed from on the Island the next day!
|
|
|
There are two ways to view Mont St Michel in the tourist season (early September). I know which I found preferable.

My father

Dad's the guy in the truck
|
|
|
Still haven't got the holiday images even started on the way to sorting.
In the meantime here's my Dad during WW2 driving a crash truck on an airfield in Canada.

Another one for the aviation freaks
|
 |
|
Supermarine Spitfire & Piper Colt
|
|
|
|
Still haven't had time to sort the images from the recent trip to France, so in the meanwhile who'd like some pieces of aviation history. My forty year old Colt and a sixty-something year old Spitfire parked together. The lady pilot of the Spitfire didn't want to swop.

My office
|
 |
|
Tig's world
|
|
 |
|
And me in mine
|
|
|
|
I went away on holiday, came back and my colleague Tig had supervised the doubling in size and re-equipping of our office. What a star!
