In this life I have mostly lived near or in London, England - but in the previous 7 years I have called the county of Norfolk my home.
Our little village is a big change from central London - but besides that it can be a little too quiet sometimes, the upsides massively outweigh the downsides! Fresh air, free movement and natural creatures all around can't be beaten with any amount of money in a big City like London. :)
Today I made a bike ride to get some exercise and deliver a cucumber I had grown to my friends - I took these shots along the way.

The Bure Valley Railway line is quite fun as you can cycle a stretch and get the steam train back to where you started. It runs from Aylsham to Wroxham (where there is a main-line station) through Buxton and Coltishall. Nice river at Buxton. Good cake shop at Coltishall. Broad at Wroxham (though quite busy and commercial there) I think you may need to book to take the bike on as they only have a couple of carraiges big enough.
Awesome! thanks for the tip. I have been on holidays on the broads many times in the distant past, but not well enough to know these locations from memory - I'll check them out.
Feel free to pick our brains - you can always ask Bob on the stall too :)
Glad to be here! Thanks everyone for your support! @ura-soul

Gorgeous pictures julee! Everyone of them I love seeing their beauty🌺🌺
Very Good Post @ura-soul . There is alot to learn from You. Upvoted :)
Thanks - Eventually I will share it all and will have to go and create some more exciting experiences :)
Nice shots.
Looks like it was more than well worth the ride to deliver that cucumber! :D Beautiful!
hehe - thanks!
So beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Lovely part of the country did a few geography field trip with school there. That was 20 ish years ago though. Photos look amazing very vibrant
heh - well, to be truthful, my camera makes photos look too dull - so i amped up the vibrancy in software ;)
but the pictures are closer to reality now in terms of colour than they were when i started.
These are some awesome pictures @ura-soul. What camera you using?
nothing special, it's actually a relatively cheap sony video camera with a still mode - i improved the shots in software to make them 'pop' ;)
That's the nice thing about 2017. If you don't have anything too fancy, you can always do something better in some software. What software did you use?
any of the photoshop-like apps can do what i did - just some basic saturation and vibrancy changes - this free, online one is fine: https://pixlr.com/editor/
Thankyou! :)
Thanks, yes :)
You are welcome!
