Photographs for Bonus Update Episode

Posted on by Natalie Doig

Below is the latest photograph I took in the lovely coffee shop which is where the old Pound Stretcher offices used to be, a part of the building that was said to be particularly haunted by Aggie the poltergeist. As the wonderful story teller Owen Staton said on Twitter, this must be a much nicer place for Aggie to dwell, than the old pound stretcher was!

A landscape image looking across a coffeeshop lounge. There are three long windows letting in hazy light and settees and chairs with cushions positioned amongst wooden pillars. There are fairy lights strung around the walls and mirrors.

Below is the view from the hobbit window in the bedroom where I stayed in the gardeners house, mentioned in my spooky story.

An oval window looking out onto an avenue of chestnut trees in full blossom. There are green fields before the trees and in the distance. The sky is cloudy with patches of blue.

This is the window in the other bedroom looking over the fields but the picture was taken at sunset.

Another oval window looking out on to a brown field. There's a tree to the left and in the distance a line of trees with blossom. An orange sun is just setting behind the trees. The sky is a pink and Peachey colour.

A photograph of Wrest Park not long after dawn.

Hazy early morning light casts long shadows in the foreground are bushes and shrubs in yellow, green and purple then an open lawn with some bushes and trees. There is a wall and gates with plants in pots on tip of them in the middle distance. IN the background are tall trees. The sky is blue with faint wispy coulds.

"Science and sorcery." It's a quote from a beekeeper I saw on the TV, about how he sees the work he does keeping bees, a balance between science and sorcery. For me it also sums up my experience of life, my interests and my outlook. I love photography which is a perfect blend of science and sorcery, using light and technology to create magical images. But when I'm not taking photos you'll find me making the podcast Weird in the Wade. I'm also often to be found writing, reading, knitting, riding my mountain bike or drinking coffee watching the world go by. By day I fight for disability rights, equality and inclusion for all.
