February 2010


After visiting a photography exhibition at the Sutton Bank Visitor Centre in North Yorkshire at lunchtime, I drove down the coast to one of my favourite places, Spurn Head near Hull. It was getting dark and I took a few photos of the Pier. However, I know I can do better and want to go back and have another go using longer exposures.

On a grey, bleak saturday afternoon, I scour the local woodland down by the river. Among the black, rotting vegetation I find are a few mushrooms, but they are beautiful and resemble parachutes falling to the soft verdant moss below.
