What is this?

This is a spinoff of my regular blog www.crispian.photos/blog

If you look at my main blog you will see that I have 2 dogs, Amy Pond- a 2 year old old Labrabull who we have just adopted (We lost Holly, our beloved a 17 year old short-haired Border Collie mix last year) & Faith- a 9 year old Chow Crested Staffie mix, who need to be walked at least a couple of miles a day. Most days I take them to Saxon Woods in Mamaroneck and we do a loop of between 2 and 4 miles.

I love the walk around Saxon Woods, and I love watching the change of seasons. So I decided it would be fun to post a picture of the same spot every day on a new blog so I could look back at how the seasons change- and not bore everyone who looks at my regular blog to death! The spot I picked is a bridge over a small stream that we cross whichever loop we do.

There will be gaps- sometimes we go to the other section of Saxon Woods, sometimes we go to the beach or further afield, but most days we cross this bridge and I will try and post a picture. And for the fun of it I may add other details, like the weather, or what music or audiobook etc. is playing on my Pixel 11 Pro at the moment I took the picture (I use Google Play Music and Audible, but have recently been listening to a lot of Radio 4, including checking in on Ambridge most days).

Most of these pictures will be taken with my phone camera, but I'll try and take some with my better camera fairly regularly too- just click on the pictures to embiggen them.

Update, October 29, 2011:
I took the pictures from the first year of doing this and put them together as a little movie- you can see it here :)
