I found myself in Nottinghamshire today, Robin Hood country.The young scion was running in the English National Cross Country Relay Championship. It meant a wet and windy pre-dawn run up Roseberry with the dog, not many photography opportunities. Berry Hill park, Mansfield, turned out to be remarkably dry, with sandy soil and a lovely bit of open woodland, not a bramble or bracken in sight. Back home the intention was to play with capturing the fireworks at the village bonfire night but health and safety decreed a postponement because of high winds.
