Photographic Heaven Part II
















I have to be honest and say that I'm not always a fan of the town where I live. Like most places it has its good points and bad points. But, for the Easter weekend that was all forgotten. The sun came out, a French market arrived and you could almost imagine you were somewhere a whole lot more glamourous! Take a look at the sweet stall!

Photographic Heaven










Last week Homespun Man (for that is what he shall now be known as!) had the week off. With such lovely weather we decided to take the boys out on some day trips to make the most of it.
This also gave me the chance to play with my new DSLR, which I'm currently trying to get to grips with. This has meant that my old camera has gone to Homespun Man, his camera has gone to our eldest son & in turn his camera has gone to our youngest son...following this so far?

Anyways, armed with enough digital hardware to fill a bucket or maybe a bus or more like something in between, we went to explore Dunsford. This is a beautiful area on the edge of Dartmoor with a tranquil winding river, birds singing, beautiful flowers, even the odd husband taking a photo!

It's snow Delia!


It's such a rare thing for us to get any snow, that today was a whole new experience for our hens.

They ran for cover, not sure what to make of it! Delia is by far the brightest of our hens, and she felt it was worth investigating....with a little encouragement (she's very partial to a custard cream!)
