As with much of the UK, Somerset has had a pretty damp start to the year (in fact, it’s chucking it down yet again as I type). But, grey clouds notwithstanding, there are signs that spring is on the horizon, and so for my second ode to my new home, I thought I would post some budding new photographs.

The “slip” – that was what they had taken to calling it – had happened last autumn, and this new spring gave him the hope, the push to start putting things back together again…

It’s time for a new Mass Observation Project post too! With everything going on in the world at the moment, the next theme is going to be ISOLATION.

The idea, as with previous MO posts is to:

• Take a photograph based on the theme, however you want to interpret it.
• Email the image to adayinphotographs@outlook.com by Wednesday 1st April 2020.
• Include your name, website/blog address and a short note about the image.
• Come back and see the results on Sunday 5th April!

Images should be a maximum of 650 pixels wide.

Thanks! 🙂
