Arnside

 

An update from a couple of weeks ago, and making the most of Bens only day off in the Easter hols, and the lovely weather, with a trip over to Arnside.  First stop was Arnside itself for a picnic on the promenade overlooking the tidal estuary, with the token train shot...

 

...then up the hill to Arnside Knot, a patch of hillside owned by the National Trust.  Some rather tastefully windswept trees up there.

 

 

 

 

Nice views from the top, north to the Lakes and south towards Lancaster and Heysham.

 

 

Then it was down to RSPB Leighton Moss at Silverdale for a quick visit.  We'd been here before with our Scout Group, and this time got to see a bit more of the place.

 

Though it was a birdwatching site, obviously wildlife photography is a little tricky with three young kids in tow shouting and pointing, but we managed a few pics.

 

This should be rather good when it is finished, though it does look a little out of place.

 

Coming next will be the first of our "From The Archives" posts, looking back at past photography projects.
