I am not normally a watch person, in fact I am the opposite. I am the modern-day 'check-your-phone-for-the-time' sort of person.

Even if I have a watch, I am most likely to forget to wear it.

Last week I was having one of those days, and so decided to grab my camera (my trust Nikon D3200) and head down to Alfriston for a walk. The light was absolutely incredible and I managed to take some beautiful photos...
