A look now at the other six photos in the calendar (see previous post). The July and August pics were taken on a trip to the Weald & Downland Museum in West Sussex. The geese were remarkably tame and a delight until they started pecking at my bag and trying to pick my husband's pocket . . .

The image I chose for September was of a hedge of Rosa Rugosa in the churchyard at Sturminster Newton, Dorset. There was a huge yew tree, but the roses and hips were what drew my attention. So much so that I'm hoping to make space to plant a similar hedge - or just a bush - in my own garden.

For October, November and December I looked back through my photos from the previous year, and found this lichen (below) on some bark at the local golf course on a muddy walk in November 2020. It was too muddy to walk there again this past Autumn.

The November image was one of those lucky accidents; the sun came out on what had been a rather indifferent afternoon and lit up the trees and the field at just the right moment as we took one of our regular walks in the local lanes.

December's photo was a chance shot which neatly caught a Hertfordshire sunset in early Winter. The landscape was slowly becoming dormant; but as we know, all new growth begins in the dark and the sap rises again. And now we are at the end of January, the lighter days are a sign that Spring is on its way!

Gorgeous - the November and December ones with those stunning skies are a particular favourite.
