Not an overly spectacular variety, colour-wise. But it had been a while since I got the camera out, and it was there. On the ground, so a lot of mucking about flattening out the tripod legs, getting the centre pole horizontal (Vanguard Alta Pro 2+ 263AP), then down on hands and knees.

For all that work, a bit of an average shot, but there you go.

Thanks guys. Unbeknown to my, my son took a video of me kneeling first this way, then that way, trying to get everything in place and then taking the shot - he found all my antics highly entertaining and amusing. Elders just don't get any respect these days!!!!
