A real white horse

First published 12th September 2017 (Last Modified 9th January 2021)

The white horse at Uffington, taken on Sunday from about a couple of miles away - hence the rubbish resolution!

Today I visited the white horse at Uffington as part of a morning walk that covered the nearby Dragon Hill, the White Horse and Wayland Smithy before returning via Compton Beauchamp enroute back to Uffington.
The walk took about 8 miles and just over three hours (part of the reason for the slow speed was the 500 feet climb onto the ridgeway!)

Bristol Harbour panorama

First published 26th January 2018 (Last Modified 9th January 2021)

I'm quite pleased with how this panorama of Bristol's floating harbour turned out, I perhaps should have been further along to the east so that perhaps SS Great Britain would have been included - but then I'd have had to contend with the black pipe visible on the right edge of this image and would probably have lost the tower of Clifton Suspension Bridge that this one includes. I might play with GIMP to see if I can tone down the brightness of all the white houses, but I'm liking this one.
