I enjoyed several great photographic trips during August, and so I had a tough time choosing my favourites on occasion. I visited RHS Hyde Hall for an afternooon and found plenty of exotic plants to photograph. This macro of leaf veins nearly made it for Day #580.
I went on several nature walks and managed to catch some excellent wildlife images – not something which is usually my strong point, so I was quite pleased. This lovely male Ruddy Darter [right] nearly made it on Day #583.
I also visited the Museum of Childhood in Bethnal Green and climbed up The Monument one Saturday, which gave a great view over London, plus providing some interesting views of the building itself.
On Day #598, I enjoyed another long photowalk along the South Bank with a friend, and it was therefore difficult to choose which picture would be the best to represent the day. Polka Dot Trees [above] almost made top of the pile. Here are the rest.
