Ok where were we ... oh yes ... fog ... England ... nature ... & a road trip to Cambridge. Yesterday i attempted to share a whole host of pretty pictures ... but well i failed with my ability to babble & go off on tangents. So today I am taking you on a trip down to Cambridge, one foggy morning in March ... (& way less talking this time i promise) ...
I grew up in Cambridge & whilst i knew it was a beautiful city I believe i took it for granted. Now having returned to England I have 3 or 4 years to explore my homeland, camera in hand & I am working incredible hard at it. Not everyone gets the chance to see the world, travel & walk away with beautiful reminders so i feel as if this is something I have to do. & so often we want the blue skies & the pretty clouds, we forget that beauty isn't necessarily found in those things. So keeping this in mind, a morning spent wandering through a fog filled Cambridge sounded wonderful. & well it was ...
Literally just off the bus I decided to dart onto Christ Piece & saw this beautiful moment ... like something out of Narnia ... oh by the way i should mention now all these images were captured using my Lensbaby Composer Pro & Edge 80 optic.
pretty rain drops seen out the corner of my eye ...
Christ College ...
senate house passage ...
one of those moments you come across that leaves you in awe ...
& just as stunning in colour ...
& the epitome of all things Cambridge.
Cambridge is one of those cities that has a timeless feel ... so much history, it could almost be 1913 instead of 2013.
Ok enough photos for one day (though honestly can you ever get enough) ... I must get back to doing something my husband considers "productive". Have a wonderful day ... & remember that whilst we all get the winter blues you may be surprised some days, so don't think about it before grabbing your camera & heading out because beautiful can be found everywhere!

Oh I LOVE the first and last shots! Amazing!! Wish I was there... I've been to England once and fell in love with it. Maybe you'd like to come to Illinois and we could swap?? :)
