Mark deliberately cultivates plants in his Bedford, Texas backyard to attract butterflies and bees and regularly ventures out to capture images of the little critters. He’s been honing his skills for more than a decade. We always enjoy visiting his Flickr Album for great examples of macro photography. Karen joined him this afternoon with the long lens on the Sony A5100. And this evening the two of them were out on the patio with phones trying to capture a lightning strike image!
A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.
A visit to the London Transport Museum in Covent Garden gave us insight into the evolution and role of public transportation in the creation of London as a great metropolitan area.
Bath, England is an amazingly inviting place with deep deep history. One little day trip isn’t anywhere near enough but we did enjoy delving into the history of the Roman Baths, basking in the beauty of Bath Abbey, and topping our visit off with Tea and Bath Buns!
