Adventure weekend hereford and beyond

 weekender down to a few shires,in no particular order as I am having great trouble moving the shots. so apologies

Hereford was the last stop of the day, shot left of subway , shortened shot due to massive pile of sick.

liked the contrast between the chippie and the indian takeaway or as a friend has noted, could be a brothel and chippie.

Early morning shot from the Wye Bridge in Hereford where the sun tried and failed to make an appearance

 

above left shot of Wye bridge and above right underneath another bridge, playing with water shots for the challenge.

Ledbury,,nice little town and obsessed still with graffitt on bins and have 8 others all of animals, I MUST GET OVER THIS STRANGE LITTLE HOBBY, above right shot of books on a rip-off restaurant in Much Marcle, paid for 2 sunday roast ..at a cost of £22.50 so i gave her £25 and i waited and waited .. in the end i had to ask for my change..normally i would have left a tip but not to those who assume i was going to give one.. Annoyed!

Above shot in Ledbury on a derelict tourist centre.

We tried and failed 4 times to move away from Much Marcle but the car had a honing to the non-descript village. Finally  onto Dymoch to see the wild daffodils and hopfully catch a cup of tea at the church but a tad too late in the day.. still the yellow flowers were everywhere and shot above right just outside the church.

Onto ... St Marys Church at Kempley.. a beautiful Norman Medieval 12th century with lovely wall paintings re-discovered in the 1870's after the walls were whitewashed during the reformation. shot below shows the circle of life

Actually no it doesn't that shot is third down..very annoying.. 

Anyway the shot below is of the graveyard more daffodills..  getting a little sick of the yellow flowers, they are flipping everywhere and I'm not even attempting to capture them by now.

Tis the prettiest church and the door is one of the oldest still in use in the country. You will have to imagine it.. or get the shot yourself as mine didn't turn out so well..

Ah yes,, the circle of life,, now if i hadn't of had the literature telling me what the pictures of the 12 ages of man were I would never have guessed.

Onto Hereford.. well. one of the reasons to stay here was to visit the cathedral and see the Mappa Mundi,, it never happened as it is closed until April.. so annoying as I would have like to have seen the beast with 1 enourmous foot and also the large eared creature that used its big ears to keep warm by wrapping themselves in them.. oh well another time.

 Few more shots of Hereford and liked the graffitti making use of a boring demolition wall.

Having looked at the map, not too far from Wales and having heard Paula talk about Hay on Wye, that's my next stop,, photos to follows.
