It was a sunny afternoon today, a vast change from the rain of yesterday. On the spur of the moment I decided to drive down to Woodstock and have a walk around the Blenheim Palace estate – we have annual passes so we can visit any time we like.
Here are three photos from my visit.
A wet day here in Hooky, so a quick edit of an image in Photoshop of No2 Viaduct taken in much better conditions last month. I used a set of print templates supplied with N-Photo magazine to highlight the subject name and my details with a black border around the image.
This year’s trials took place between 15th – 18th September. Here are some images from the event.
My aim this year is to make an effort to get out and about with my camera as I am getting fed up with walks in the local area. There are only so many photos I can take of the area around Hook Norton.
So I recently drove down to White Horse Hill near Uffington for a walk along part of The Ridgeway.
Here are some photos from my outing.

In late October I paid a visit to Oxford, my first since last year. Despite it being half term the city was not really that busy. Tourist numbers were much less than usual and I was able to photograph landmarks without waiting for people to move out of shot. Here is a selection of images from my outing.
The booklet has now been published and is available from me at a cost of £4 plus P&P of £1.50. It has 48 pages with OS maps inside showing the routes. The cover is shown below.
Recently I have been testing the walking routes that will be in the revised Walks around Hooky booklet the local history group are producing. Here are a selection of images from my travels.
