Cycle Path

Last May/June I went for a ride out along a new cycle path which I can see from the train every day on the way to work. On the first day it rained very heavily, and on the second day the poppies were out in full effect.

More information on the route, and the meaning of the stripes (if you can't guess from the clue in the sculpture) can be found here.

When I did my MA in 2003-2004, I made some experiments with video and panoramas down at Stourbridge Common in Cambridge. Nothing very ground-breaking, but there is something about visiting the place where Newton supposedly bought his prism.

A couple of years later I went there to take my first panorama with my panosaurus.

And now I go back there today with my new (to me) Garmin GPS device to try some Geotagging (more on that later). It's clearly been a while, even though I'm not that far away because firstly I see they've almost completed a new bridge across the Cam nearby, but a tree I have often photographed is no more. I always feel a bit sad when a tree gets taken down, but I seem to remember that this one looked a bit spongy in the middle, so was probably brought down before it came down.

Here it is, still standing in Google Maps
