Three weekends ago Sev, Sarah, Niz and Gina arrived in my little town for our monthly meetup.
The location this time was Blenheim Palace in Woodstock, Oxford. If you live in England then I would definitely recommend a day trip out to visit it. It is so stunning and every time I go back I discover new locations and fall in love with it all over again.
That particular weekend we got lucky as there was still some left over snow from the weekend before which added to the atmosphere and magic of that location. By the end of the day we noticed the snow melting and by the next day there was hardly any left at all.
I know I say this often but I genuinely mean it, I LOVE our meetups. It's a chance to catch up, experiment and enjoy the company of crazy likeminded individuals. I do realise that if it wasn't for the internet I might never have met these girls. So thank you Flickr for bringing us together!
We arrived just after midday and after a little photo session against a gorgeous view we followed the path from the main entrance round the palace and deeper into the landscape. Here are a few behind the scenes photos and random snaps I grabbed that afternoon.
Some geese.

There were tripods and bits of camera equipment everywhere. It was pretty cool actually :)

On the way back we drove under a low flowing river of cloud and not being able to help ourselves we promptly doubled back and tried to capture it on camera.. as you do!
Niz took this hilarious photo! Spot the odd one out! ;)
