“You’ve got a good day for it!”
The anglers don’t agree with me: “It’s terrible weather for fishing!”
But Skelton Lake is a great place for a muddy stroll on a dull October morning; at the motorway services, a family are getting their children to change into wellies.
We’re here to take photographs of autumn colour, alder cones, the flowers in the wild flower beds by the services, which itself has a green roof. Rather than put this morning’s photographs in a slide-show style gallery, I’m putting them into an e-pub publication. I’ve only got as far as the cover so far, but I’m learning as I go along.
That sounds lovely. Beautiful autumn colours in nature.
So is the fish in the lake? Idea what is in there?
There’s some problem with water quality that they’re trying to sort out at Skelton Lakes. I think there are fish in there but I’ve rarely if ever spotted people fishing there, but I haven’t walked around the lake in the last year or so.
