Digital nomads.
Slowing the pace and breathing,
Life on the canal.
One of our favourite places for a walk – Trent Lock near Nottingham. A junction of one canal and two rivers and, more importantly, two pubs and a tearoom. Nice flat walking in several directions, and always something to see.
Grey skies threaten rain.
Take shelter beneath the bridge
‘Til the storm has passed.
Trent Bridge straddles the River Trent (strangely), linking the City of Nottingham to West Bridgford. In the image you can see the floodlights for the cricket ground on the right, and to the left the Brian Clough stand of the City Ground, home of Nottingham Forest FC. Both are on the south side of the river. On the north side is the home of Notts County FC, separated from the City Ground by only 250 metres, making them the closest grounds to each other in the UK. Unfortunately for County fans, not quite so close in terms of league position.
Driving rain persists,
Flooding rivers burst their banks.
Calm after the storm.
A little bit of minimalism from the River Trent in January last year. Although the image is minimalist, the effort required to achieve it was not. I think the time taken to learn the techniques were worth it, but hey – I am retired so what else was I going to do during those hours?
