It’s very easy to take what we know for granted. The village where I live is surrounded by
farmer’s fields, the countryside itself you can describe as “flat” and
agricultural; not the undulating hills and meadows of what most of us think as
the countryside should be. There are dozens of country lanes, public footpaths and bridleways
to explore close to the house. I’ve seen
hare’s sitting on grass verges watching me trundle past on the bike (the lack
of hills a positive when it comes to the casual cyclist). When Spring arrives, those fields suddenly
come to life.
What you lose in rolling hills, you gain in big skies and long horizons:
I got drenched taking this photograph but I thought it was worth it.
