Wey Navigation Walk (Part 1)

Last weekend I spent a few hours wandering along The Wey Navigation towpath from Bowyers Lock to Send and back. This is part of a tranquil waterway and wildlife corridor running for nearly 20 miles through the heart of Surrey. It was  a bright but cloudy day and not much varied wildlife to be seen so much of my time was spent looking down...so here are a few reflective images starting with 'leaf fall' at Bowyers Lock.










And finally one of many male Mallards quitely patrolling the waterway.  FAB.

The photos of your walk along the tow path have a soothing peacefulness about them, Frank.

Very peaceful and reflective Frank!

By the way, the word verification is 'prize', a comment on the lovely photographs maybe ;)

Such a lovely series. I always enjoy reflection shots.

Hi Frank,
Maybe you should be wandering more for the sake of our eyes as you got superb reflection shots there :-) Well done.

...reflective and beautiful, Frank. I love the 2nd to last--the oranges in that tree are flaming and look so nice reflected in the water. Of course, the last shot is simply beautiful and would make a wonderful watercolor.

Great pictures - I just love reflections in water.. Sounds like a good walk Frank :)

Hi Kelly. Glad you liked this post..a little different from just wildlife. I think I'll leave you (the artist) to produce the watercolour. Copy of the pic will be on it's way to you soon. FAB
