2016 revisited: January

Over the coming weeks, I'll share a few bits and pieces from 2016 that didn't make it online at the time. Mostly it's a good motivator to get around to editing all my photos!
Getting my camera out to take a photo of Lake Field every week also encouraged me to notice the details near our house as the seasons changed. These apples stuck around on the tree through January and into February.

Dan's folks came down for a day and we enjoyed a shimmering afternoon by the sea. This is the view from Galley Hill in Bexhill, looking east towards Hastings in the pastel glow of the late afternoon sun.

We go walking most months with a local group, part of HRRA. In January we went for a (very short) walk at Camber Sands, near Rye. The first two photos are taken looking east, towards Hastings but from the other direction. Please be warned that the third photo is the corpse of a calf which had washed up on the beach.

We spent a weekend in Chichester, which I wrote about at the time. Here is a photo from the misty Saturday morning.

What are your plans for this winter? I'm looking forward to a trip to Norfolk and hopefully another walking weekend along the Grand Union Canal.

Those sounds like good plans for your winter :)
Will you do some more walking in Norfolk too?

My plans are very simple: grab a few Sustrans and OS maps of Bristol and its surrounding and cycle/walk everywhere that take my fancy to get familiar with the area.

I'm hoping for a microadventure involving a wild camp but that is less certain.

Ah, the best way to learn a new place!

Yeah, we will be in Norfolk for a week or so, so depending on our levels of laziness we should get out for at least two decent walks - our faves are one along the coast (to a good pub) (with the shuttle bus back if it's running!) and one inland through some hills (or, as it's Norfolk, "hills").
