Overkill

You can go miles and never come across a waste bin - and then 3 come along together.
Yes - the head-to-toe Hi-Viz men collect the plastic bags from in them in a fairly regular basis …… just a shame they never pick up the thousands of bits of rubbish the 'footballers' leave lying about.

The daffs were adding a bit of brightness and colour to the gloomy surroundings on the morning walk.

I have spent all week trying to get a silhouette of the love birds and everyday they have taken off as soon as I started to lift the camera. This morning they were disturbed by the overly loud teenagers.

The dull conditions were fine for the bark (which I may use as a texture overlay at some point).

By lunchtime there was a bit of sun which lit up the fallen silver birches quite nicely.

I had my eyes tested this afternoon.
God but I hate the air jets in the eye!
It was then a case forking out for new glasses - never an enjoyable experience.
