Christmas Lights at Hall Lees Park, Matlock

Christmas Lights at Hall Lees Park, Matlock

Again this year I've stood in Hall Lees Park until I can't feel my fingers, to try and grab a shot of the lights!  This was a 3 second exposure. Every year the lights are set out in the park although there were less to see in 2020, no doubt to restrictions

The Haw Lees (as the area was then called) was originally two fields on the east bank of the River Derwent lying between Matlock Bridge and Matlock Green. 

Occupying an enviable spot in the centre of the town, Hall Leys Park has always been one of Matlock’s visitor attractions, as well as an attractive place for residents to enjoy a restful or activity-packed hour or so

Bridge at Cawood

Bridge at Cawood, Yorks, in the days when we could roam! Cawood is a large village and civil parish in Selby, North Yorkshire. 

Notable as the finding-place of the Cawood sword, and finding-a-place to park the camper van behind a pub. It's the former home of Cardinal Wolsey, and all that stuff that went off with Henry, in what remains of a castle. On-trial Nikon mirrorless Z6, 1/250 sec. @ f/8 33 mm & ISO 100 

Overlooking Chatsworth
