Marford Quarry - 13.5.2018





I have known about this place since I was a child,we used to pass it when in the car. I was just a sandy old quarry back then, now trees have grown and it is a popular dog walking spot. There is two sides to the quarry the other is Gresford which you are allowed to have your dog off the lead. I haven't been to that side yet, there is now a small car park which soon gets full up.



The smell of wild garlic filled the air and was a lovely site to see along each side like fields of white.



These two images of Bluebells were better seen with the naked eye.





                                 Another path along the trail that lead somewhere.






                                    This is the main path which I was walking along.






                            I liked the way which nature had grown this tree with its curves.






















 I couldn't decide between these two images as both have a different feel to them.This is furn growing before it unravels its leaves thought it made for an interesting image.























            It would of been nice to of had a dormouse perched on top of this wild garlic.




These are the veins of the tree appearing above ground, thought it would make an interesting image.



                                         This image I liked the way it had weathered.




This image is the same as the very first one again I liked them both.


I had a lovely walk and next time will go and explore the Gresford side.
