Here we go

So, emboldened by my learning at yesterday's photography course, I took my camera with me - on my choice of settings rather than putting it just in auto mode - when I took a sack of shredded paper over to the RSPCA centre for use as bedding for the small animals. Happily, today there was none of the incessant rain that we have had lately and the sky looked quite dramatic, so I thought it would be a far more interesting image to post than yesterday's late night light fitting! The extra photo was taken just round the corner from our place and, noting the tutor's comment about 'lines', I was drawn by the way the slender trunks of the trees converged against the blue cloudy sky.
