Great night out in Newport seeing the folk rock band Merry Hell..Good to see them this close to home as I've always traveled a lot further before !
Still trying to get to grips with the new Macro phone set up...A walk along Newport Shropshire canal this afternoon
Today's wanderings around Newport Shropshire As with last year I managed to find two poppy fields about a week too late after they have started to go over 😠 We go again next year I suppose 🤣
Always keep an eye out for this little section of bluebells by the Church in Newport Shropshire..Didn't have my iPhoneography gear so these are just bog standard iPhone photo's on the way past this evening..
Easter Sunday wanderings...Might be more when I get chance to go through the rest !
Looks like someone's woken up from hibernation on Newport Shropshire canal...
