I still have a stupid row going on but getting into the forest to clear my head is the best thing for it.<\/p>\n<p>It was a relatively nice day for it &#8211; a bit grey but not raining. My wife came with me for the walk and it was nice to have the company. Sometimes, I&#8217;d rather use my walk for alone time but this was not one of them. Nothing much out of the ordinary to report on this walk and I barely bothered with the camera.<\/p>\n<p>This is the stick I&#8217;ve been using for the last 8 months or so. They tend to last a year or so before wearing down too short. I can then cut a new one out of the hedge at the back of the house. Some of these days, I&#8217;ll be organised enough to do one a few months in advance because they are really heavy when new due to the green wood. This one is just perfect right now.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/cartrongarrow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/DSCN0218-e1395301067869.jpg\"><img data-attachment-id=\"196\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/cartrongarrow.com\/?attachment_id=196\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/cartrongarrow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/DSCN0218-e1395301067869.jpg?fit=1200%2C1600\" data-orig-size=\"1200,1600\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;3.6&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;COOLPIX L820&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1395233311&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;7.7&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;400&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.1&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"DSCN0218\" data-image-description=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/cartrongarrow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/DSCN0218-e1395301067869.jpg?fit=225%2C300\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/cartrongarrow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/DSCN0218-e1395301067869.jpg?fit=474%2C632\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-196\" alt=\"DSCN0218\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cartrongarrow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/DSCN0218-e1395301067869-768x1024.jpg?resize=474%2C632\" width=\"474\" height=\"632\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/cartrongarrow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/DSCN0218-e1395301067869.jpg?resize=768%2C1024 768w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/cartrongarrow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/DSCN0218-e1395301067869.jpg?resize=225%2C300 225w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/cartrongarrow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/DSCN0218-e1395301067869.jpg?w=1200 1200w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/cartrongarrow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/DSCN0218-e1395301067869.jpg?w=948 948w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I always like the way the light bleeds between the rows of trees &#8211; particularly when there is a gap.
