Some night photography again. It didn't work as I had envisioned it 🤣. No flash, but looks like there was. So I played with it. Monochrome then slightly recolourised. Its at least a mildly interesting trio.

We'd gone way-y-y out into the desert to possibly do a location shoot of an individual who is particularly fond of the desert & desolate terrain of our salt flats. My body decided to painfully intervene. (I did successfully medicate & gained some relief.) But we wound up just exploring and having fascinating fun along an abandoned railroad siding. There were middens everywhere containing the castoffs of former settlement & workers of days gone by. We'd find plenty of curiosities above ground, as well as protruding from the sun baked salt, sand & gravel. We'd occasionally dig in order to possibly find an unique item worthy of keeping. In this framing, looking down at hardened ground of gravel are splinters & shards of sun-bleached wood. On the left is a rusted iron shim or part of a broken tool, of an odd shape akin to perhaps a half of a flat, metal hourglass. On the right is a severely rusted, large piece of rail iron -obviously the end of a sizable piece of a rail protruding up, out of the ground at an angle. Their juxtaposition caught my eye. Enjoy. It's an image of a very-very hard land, and a visual echo of human habitation given back over to nature's recycling & its desert climate harshness.

View up a woodland path. Tall conifers line a bed of moss and pine needles.

Walk on Cannock Chase this morning with the dog and toddler. Lovely sun and fantasticly quiet off the busy, beaten tracks.

A wren on a branch singing his little heart out.
Playing the sound of a wren singing apparently makes the locals a bit belligerent. This fella took umbrage at me! #bird #spring #phonephoto
