One Careful Owner
Had a great adventure today – went for a drive to the forest for a ‘quick walk’ to take a few photos of the beautiful winter landscape – didn’t quite work out that way though!!!
We ended up having to abandon the car in the forest car park as we couldn’t make it back up the frozen road to the top and the forest driveway that we had planned to return along was closed off with locked barriers – so ended up having to walk some extra 3 miles to the nearest village where we luckily caught the bus home! lol I’m sure someone suggested leaving the car at the top of the track and walking down …. still it was a fabulous day and have got some amazing shots in the forest to share! x
This was taken along the road between Hamsterley Forest and Woodland Village on the walk back – must have been someone’s pride and joy once – and I’m sure those pigeon sheds would have held many a prize winning bird in their day.

I wanted to go out and take photos today in the snow but had to stay in and do some painting, no not a watercolour, the bedroom ceiling and walls. LOL
I love this and added it to my favourites, it’s absolutely excellent Angela.

Fantastic job Angela! Love how the light hits different areas, and the treatment you used… it makes the image dream-like and a little bizarre. Bravo! xxx

lol,what a great story and a fabulous way to spend the day,sometimes when things don’t go quite as planned it can make it all the more fun ! Beautiful shot Angela and such pretty colours,it looks like it has such a pretty outlook too, amazing how someone could just abandon it !
Angela Harburn replied
Thanks so much Trudi – it was certainly a ‘grand adventure’ – wouldn’t have missed it for the world! xxx It is surprising just how many abandoned places there are still around -you would think they would be bought up and renovated – such a shame! xxx
