Rain, rain, go away, why must it always rain on my walk-the-camera day? 17th November starts wet, overcast, gloomy. But we don our waterproofs and hop a bus. We’re headed to Fritton Woods, aka Waveney Forest. Please do join us…

We feared it might be deeply muddy but so far it’s looking good…

The autumn foliage would look so much better in the sun…

We arrive at the woods. The mistiness of the wet day adds a certain something…

The rain has stopped. That’s encouraging…

The forest abuts a marshland and a river (the Waveney)…

Which makes the perimeter a bit like a swamp! Glad to climb the bank, back to the heathy-bits

From whence we can see across to the river…

Turning inland again, we venture into a birch wood, not yet explored despite our many visits…

Arriving here, in the sunlight, felt like emerging from a dark underworld!
We’ll continue the walk next week… in the sun, with vibrant autumn colours! Yay. Please join us then.

My latest walk (28th Nov) while there were fungi, they were definitely not fresh. There season is short.

I want to disagree with you. The autumn foliage is not washed out by the sun but feels more present. Beautiful pictures and kudos to you and your daughter for heading out in the rain.

I don’t mind the rain. It’s just annoying that the camera isn’t rainproof!

I don’t mind it either – depending on the temperature. And right… the camera doesn’t love it so much. The new phones are water resistant so… 😉

I feel ya. Mind you, when it’s raining and its 1-2℃, that is not pleasant.
