Dalkeith Country Park

May 2024, venue - Dalkeith Country Park

Theme: Out of Place

Weather: Glorious

Refreshments: The cafe at Dalkeith Country Park 

We all interpreted this theme in different ways. Some folk interpreted it to mean that we could only photograph "out of place" things that were already there. Other folk came armed with props at the ready. What we were all agreed on was that it was a terrific day out. 

Colin found this abandoned bottle cap with a very sad message. 

Kate found this old rusted bike in the river. It's been there for years. 

Alex came armed with a prop, photographing a model of an old Chevy on the mossy stump of an old tree trunk. 

Eileen also used an old tree stump as her base. Her choice of prop was Paddington Bear. Cool! 

It was Sandra's turn to go off-piste. Nothing out of place, but she found some wonderful shadows. 

Ada found a photo she had taken previously at Dalkeith Country Park - a beautiful dipper posing on an old flytipped wheel

Brian found this giant redwood which was well out of place - the species is native to California.
