This blog is ALL my OWN work , I take all the Photos myself. I use a basic Samsung PL 22 14mp camera with 5x zoom. I travel all over the West Midlands and beyond for my work. I take pictures when out running, cycling, walking. I see so much I’d like to keep a record. We’ve travelled all over in our VW campervan - I’m not a photographer, but I hope I can capture just a little of what I see. Please click on the photos for information about them and click again for a large image. Please feel free to reblog as many photos as you like - search the archive for more it goes back to March 2012.Tumblr (3.0; @vwcampervan-aldridge)http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com/<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/14306edbf25de59dedaa48d31220adbb/tumblr_mn0jn2Jd231rsswhpo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Jacobean gatehouse at Aston Hall, Birmingham, England</p> <p>All Original Photography by <a href="http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com/" target="_blank"><a href="http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com" target="_blank">http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com</a></a></p>http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com/post/50998074050http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com/post/50998074050Tue, 21 May 2013 18:01:34 +0100ArchitectureHistoryStately HomeAston HallMansionBirminghamAstonoriginal contentoriginal photographsoriginal photosLensblrEngland<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/063c67ec31c433e96010b8b985107daf/tumblr_mn5iebJb5R1rsswhpo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Cherry Blossom and Oilseed rape fields line the Shropshire Union Canal, Brewood, Staffordshire.</p> <p>All Original Photography by <a href="http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com/" target="_blank"><a href="http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com" target="_blank">http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com</a></a></p>http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com/post/50994830827http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com/post/50994830827Tue, 21 May 2013 17:02:42 +0100CanalCherry BlossomSpringBlosomoilseed rapeyellowwaterreflectionBrewoodCountrysideenglish countrysideoriginal contentoriginal photographsoriginal photosLensblr<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/eaeee3bb70a248644d1e9b123967f24f/tumblr_mn5gc7SYsj1rsswhpo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Cottage with Climbing Hydrangeas and a water pump, Brewood, Staffordshire, England.</p> <p>All Original Photography by <a href="http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com/" target="_blank"><a href="http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com" target="_blank">http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com</a></a></p>http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com/post/50986641803http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com/post/50986641803Tue, 21 May 2013 14:04:55 +0100Cottagecottage gardenArchitectureVillageTraditionaltraditionalcountrysideenglish villageenglandBrewoodStaffordshireLensblroriginal contentoriginal photographsoriginal photos<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/a2636f31d98f7995a1e021131ca0b464/tumblr_mn5dhm5Swi1rsswhpo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Dogs on Canal Boats,  Brewood, Staffordshire, England</p> <p>All Original Photography by <a href="http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com/" target="_blank"><a href="http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com" target="_blank">http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com</a></a></p>http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com/post/50984304134http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com/post/50984304134Tue, 21 May 2013 13:03:00 +0100Dogscanal boatsBoatsborder collieCanalWaterBrewoodStaffordshireEnglandoriginal contentoriginal photographsoriginal photosLensblr<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/9c425d5a9cd24867d1918dc98bdd300c/tumblr_mn4zct9Mlk1rsswhpo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Bee collects pollen from Cherry Blossoms, Aldridge, Walsall, England</p> <p>All Original Photography by <a href="http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com/" target="_blank"><a href="http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com" target="_blank">http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com</a></a></p>http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com/post/50979409203http://vwcampervan-aldridge.tumblr.com/post/50979409203Tue, 21 May 2013 10:30:31 +0100Cherry BlossombeesBlossomflowersspringnaturecountrysideoriginal contentoriginal photographsoriginal photostreesLensblr<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/a6f2c6b42695941aa642d6bd09086086/tumblr_mmnk42Po2S1rsswhpo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>A tunnel of trees and wooden walkway -
