Wayside Magic
Today I decided to take a walk on the outskirts of my end of the city (i.e. the opposite direction from towards the city centre). There too, for a little bit, I can more or less follow the river. On the other side of the combined footpath/cycle path there is a big road, though - so the area is not really as wild and rural as it will appear in these photos. But the camera is a magic tool, and can be of great help to ignore what you wish weren't there!

What a beautiful and wild little place! Would be so pretty for a picnic, but it is just a bit too wooded.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your walk! Beautiful wild flowers!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely Summer spot.
ReplyDeleteYou are right, it does appear rather wild and rural; lovely early summer flowers! Do people use that part of the river for kayaking etc., or is it usually as quiet as it looks here?
ReplyDeleteThanks to all above for your comments!
ReplyDeleteMeike, I don't think I've ever seen any kayaking in this part of the river. On the whole, it's not river suitable for boats, as there are are several minor waterfalls and millponds and low bridges etc. (In the city centre there have been occasional canoe races but only a short distance where that's possible.)
