Pavilion in the mist
Monmouth School’s new sports pavilion on a misty, frosty December morning. A photo taken using the TrueHDR app on my iPhone.
Photo – View from Wyesham
I’m experimenting with a HDR photography app on my iPhone and sometimes get interesting results, like this shot taken from my neighbourhood, Wyesham, across the River Wye to Penallt and Mitchel Troy.
Closure of The Hill, Abergavenny
Local news: The Hill, Coleg Gwent’s Education and Conference centre in Abergavenny is due to close, under plans announced recently. A real shame if this does happen.
Blackthorn blossom
Spotted this next to the Wye today.
A Boudin Noir
I have bought a boudin noir from the Trealy Farm stall at the Monmouth Farmers’ market. Now what do I do with it?
View from the Kymin
This was the view this morning from the Kymin, the big hill behind Monmouth, looking towards Abergavenny, the Blorange and the Skirrid. I’ve never seen it so clear.
The Wye at Bigsweir
I walked from Monmouth to Tintern along the Wye Valley today and took this at Bigsweir, half way between Wales and England.
Mouth of the Monnow
The confluence of the Monnow and Wye Rivers: the mouth of the Monnow. Whence presumably comes the name of the town, Monmouth, nearby.
Monmouth from Buckholt Woods
Went for a walk here today as I hadn’t seen the countryside on this side of town. Picture is taken with my mobile phone so very wide angle too much foreground!) and panorama stitching a bit iffy.
