Midlands #2014-10S

And two-and-a-half days later I was heading southwards again, this time in the middle of a glorious springish late winter day. There were lots of lovely things worth photographing, although I was a bit constrained due to time, so you just get this recently ploughed field and some skeletal winter-denuded trees.

My unwritten, make-them-up-as-you-go-along rules for my “Midlands” series of photographs had only specified the necessity of one photo per trip. However, I seem to have established the habit for looking for photos, and so I often end up with a few shots that I’m happy to post. Sometimes the trip involves a stay of a few days, too (like this one), which means that I may have ended up posting a photo from the northbound trip, but later want to add a new post for the return trip (rather than updating the earlier post). Since I am an obsessive deviser of systems, I have come up with a coding scheme for the blog entry titles: the number enumerates the trip, but the N or S (or NS) indicates that the photos come from the north-bound or south-bound legs of the trip (or both, but in a single blog-post). I’m still only obliged to come up with a single shot (so you may get a #15S only and not a #15N or even a #15NS), but you may get more.
