Title: 15 months is a long time in the woods
Post by: zpyder on September 01, 2012, 09:57:55 AM
After moving back home I went for a run in the local woods and was amazed at how overgrown its getting,compared to when I was last in there 15 months ago. Ended up taking my camera back and recreating some of the shots.

Great comparison photos, its amazing how quickly the plant life grows over everything.

In the first pair, what is it that has appeared in the second photo in the bottom right next to the tree, some sort of nest?

People who complain about the uglyness after wood been harvested, should go back a year or a year and a half later and have look

Haha, sort of. It's a "shelter" of sorts. I've seen them all over forests in Dorset and Hampshire and always wonder why both as I don't see how they can offer much in the way of protection from the elements. I like that photo as it is different from the rest in that the most noticeable change is a man-made construct.

Apparently there's going to be a lot of development on the fields surrounding the woods, so I think I might have to keep tabs and do some photos from the woods looking into the fields before and after development.
