A wet walk

Last week I decided to go for a walk: along the river to look at the reeds.  I always love walking along rivers.  I took my camera with me to record it.

Across one pedestrian footbridge…

Malpas Road

Through the park… love this row of poplars….

And the rusty gate

But… I saw the looming grey clouds and had to hurry… but too late!  It started to pelt down with rain.  Luckily, Sainsburys is by the river too and it has nice sheltering overhangs on its roof…

I still found picturesque things to photograph while I was waiting….

The river looks very gloomy today…

Rain stopped… back over another footbridge it feels being in the tree canopies…

Plop through that puddle and hurry off home before the next deluge!

    Ah, Liz, you have such a wonderful way of seeing. I love these photos — and the landscape doesn’t look the least bit gloomy looking through your eyes. Thanks for sharing these pix.
