A walk to the hills
/ Jane BirdsellI haven’t been doing much photography, especially since the lockdown began. The dry, sunny weather has made all the spring flowers come at once, it seems. So last Saturday I walked out of town through the fields to Candy Woods and Cynynion with my camera. I wanted to see and enjoy as many flowers and fresh leaves as I could: I kept stopping to enjoy the sunshine and get close to all the detail. I saw hardly any people until the last hour or so as I walked back through the ruins of Llanforda Hall towards the town.
