April Blossom and Bosham

02/04/2012

Blossom in April

Our Cherry tree is in full bloom, pretty much a month early this year. For two weeks of every year the tree looks utterly glorious, and sports the most beautiful fat, gorgeous, blowsy blossoms, and every year I try and get some good shots.  Below are some I took yesterday on the first of the month. Also, last Friday I went to Bosham with my friend Nicky. She took her Canon (analogue) I used took my 550D and my 50mm. I took some shots of the harbour and Church both inside and out, most of which can be viewed here on my facebook page. It was a fabulously warm day, though very hazy over the water, so didn’t get as many good shots as I wanted of the harbour as visibility wasn’t good. It was a really lovely day though, and we walked around the craft centre there, had a great lunch and took lots of pictures. The Church is lovely, as is Bosham itself, which is featured on the Bayeux tapestry as the place from where King Harold sailed to Normandy to treat with William. Also, King Canutes daughter is buried in the little Church. The best time to vist Bosham is during the week as it can get quite busy despite being quite tiny. It had been quiet a while since I visited despite it being so close,  I used to go a lot. The visit reminded me what I have been missing, so plan to go back soon. If you are interested in purchasing any original pieces, postcards and prints then please visit my ART SHOP.

Flowers in Graveyard

After the ‘take down’ at the gallery yesterday, I stopped off at Boxgrove Priory and wondered around the graveyard for a little while. Here are the some of the fruits of my labours. The full set along with the Foxglove shots from the other day can be viewed on my Flickr account.
