Following The Prittle Brook | Belfairs Park
Today we followed along the Prittle Brook in Belfairs Park, which runs east along the edge of the golf course from the Woodland Park entrance to the Eastwood Road exit.

St Barnabas Church, Hadleigh [2009-2014] ~ The Bedroom Window Project
From 2009 to 2014 I photographed St Barnabas Church from my bedroom window. It became a bit of a project during the latter half of 2010, when I realised I had been photographing the church almost every week as the weather changed and I continued this through all of 2012. I must have had enough by 2013 as there aren’t many, and I took my last and only photos from 2014 in July, a few weeks before moving house. There was an absolutely fantastic sunset, and a prefect way to finish the project.
