Wherever we go, there is always something new to see, even if we keep returning to the same places. It's very difficult not to. As time goes by, to find new places we travel further and further and for a day trip probably a two hour drive is just about as far as most of us would be prepared to go. Apart from anything else, increasingly the cost goes up and up as the price of fuel escalates. One of our favourite haunts is Arley Hall in Cheshire, a 21 mile drive, so a round trip of 42 miles. A season ticket reduces the cost over a year very significantly. It's a great place for varied photography and a great place for lunch, so it's win win all the way. The last trip was two days ago, so what did I find this time? Armed with the Fujifilm S-X10 body and the Fujinon 23mm f/1.4 R LM WR lens, here's a few of the images, including some not used for the EPZ review.

This sundial is of course one hour fast, but it won't be for much longer
The gardeners have a good time working at Arley!
