Coombe Abbey Trip (Adventures with my dog)


I took a trip to Coombe Abbey this weekend to get some pictures to draw from. It turned out to be a very successful trip. I got a lot of pictures of different birds and some good pictures of my dog.

We had to walk through a fancy garden to get the picture of the house and we weren't allowed to walk on the grass which made it very hard to take the picture while trying to keep Archie on the path.



Archie also thought it was great fun to chase all of the birds away which made taking photos even more difficult. 






 The light here has reflected on the water in a really nice way.





(This White bird did not care about Archie's attempts to scare him)



There were a LOT of birds.


(Tea Break)







I had to stop a lot of attempts of Archie jumping into the lake.










In a lot of these photos, the sun had nearly started to set and so the light reflects in an interesting way. There were also some baby swans which got really close and allowed me to take some good pictures of them. They also have more colour than adult swans so might create a more interesting drawing.


I thought the water droplets on this leaf looked really interesting.
