I’m very pleased to report that I have just self-published another book via Blurb, this time focussing on Essex Landscapes Through The Seasons. You can purchase the book directly from me for £25 (without postage, if I can meet you for delivery) or from the Blurb website (£25.95 + p&p).

The majority of the images have been taken within about 5 miles of Chelmsford, but there are also pictures from all corners of the county.

For most of the rest of the month, I took very few photos each day, perhaps only one half-decent one making the cut. I think it’s probably my longest patch of doldrums during the whole project so far.
But by the end of the month, things picked up a little and I enjoyed a weekend away in Somerset, camping (yeah, I must be mad!). This fine cockerel [left] was sharing the campsite, and was rather keen for a can of coke…
