Sonnenburg Woods

I knew that there was another entrance to the woods about which I have recently written. In fact, GMaps refers to this entrance as the Sonnenburg Woods. The entrance that we have used twice previously is the St James Woods, but really there is only one woodland, and GMaps does identify this Sonnenburg entrance with St James in brackets: Sonnenburg Woods (St James).

There was no long perimeter path by the Sonnenburg entrance. We were immediately in the woods, and there were various branching trails. The paths included some rocks and roots, causing us to pick our way somewhat carefully, but it was not difficult by any means.

We took phone photos, which is all that I seem to do right now while my Canon lies in state, as it were. There was great contrast of light and dark which resulted in very mediocre photos, but as per usual, a little bit of post processing helped out significantly. I show part of the path, below.

Surprisingly, in places, there were old fences by the path. This is an old fence post, below. The actual fencing didn't turn out so well in this or any other photos, but you may be able to spot a little wire to the bottom right of the post. The shaft of light was an added delight.

Someone has tied markers here and there to help newcomers to find their way back to the parking lot. There is also fencing in this photo that you might see if you try hard.

After the woodsy walk, we picked up coffee and took it to the park. What we didn't do on this occasion was take a selfie. Obviously, this oversight should be cause for concern. However, what I did do was take a picture of a canoe on the river, marking approximately the thirty-ninth-thousandth such photo. Somehow, I can't seem to resist.
