Neodigital Art | The Black Country
There was a break in the rain on Sunday and so we set out to take more photographs. It was early and the sun was high in the sky and so it was a good time to photograph woodland.

There was a chemical factory not far away and that was probably more dangerous than smallpox! (more…)
