Wey Fronds

Fronds grow in the River Wey and are stroked by the current. It’s always a lovely sight and one I have never really succeeded in capturing.

Caesar’s Camp

After the air show, we wended our way through Caesar’s Camp and back down Folly Hill. What visit to Caesar’s Camp would be complete without capturing some of the flora and fauna of the ponds?

Serpentine

We walked around the Serpentine where there were quite a few different aquatic birds, some guarding eggs.

Carron Pond

I’ve photographed here before but here it is in a new season.

Farnham Flooding

This little brook has achieved record heights (but is not overflowing the little footbridge over it).

Bishop’s Meadow

Back to the Bishop’s Meadow and discovered that the flooding had still not fully receded. Click any picture below to see it larger.

Webbed, Bedewed Moss

As we walked back from Bowers Lock via a different path along the River Wey Navigation, we passed many supported, falling down trees. Click images below to enlarge them.

On the 6^th January we went for a walk in the Bishop’s Meadow but had to cut it short and turn back when all the paths were flooded by the recent heavy rains. Click on any of the images below to see them enlarged.

Cryptography

Antony Gormley sculpture

This mysterious life-size statue of a man contemplating the water held in his cupped hands is the work of the celebrated British sculptor Antony Gormley. Sound II, fashioned from lead out of a plaster cast of the artist’s own body, is in the Cathedral Crypt.
