Spring!!
The last few days in Cambridge have been unusually warm, so much so that I’m willing to stick my neck out and claim that spring is well and truly here to stay!!
Photographed using an iPhone 5S.

Wicken Fen #1
Wicken Fen is the oldest nature reserve managed by the National Trust. The nature reserve preserves some of the last remaining wetlands in Europe and is home to many species of plants, birds and insects. The following picture is of the Wicken Fen wind pump, the last surviving wooden wind powered wind pump used to drain the Fens.

Daffodil 2015 #1
Every spring I try to take pictures of Daffoldils, which to me are the surest sign yet that the cold, wet and miserable winters are truly behind us and a (ever hopeful) good summer is to follow. The following photo was shot in daylight using a flash and high aperture to achieve a black background and enough depth of field to cover the whole flower!
