Beauty In Decay

I gave this leaf skeleton a bit of macro treatment.
I think it's fascinating to see how it's decayed but left the veins behind.

I took the day off to recover from my "fun" yesterday.
I went for a short walk mid-afternoon, where I came across this blackthorn doing its thing.
I quite liked the progress from bud to flower along the same branch.

Cooked?

A backup photo today - and not a great day in general; I woke up in the early hours of the morning with chest pain, and found myself in the back of an ambulance instead of heading up the stairs to start work.
Long story short, I'm OK, and it wasn't cardiac in nature, but it was a bit of an alarming and exhausting day!

A backup photo today, shot yesterday
The Caterham 7s were out in force, going around corners seemingly almost as fast as they were on the straights.

I went on a track day at Cadwell Park with a friend and friend-of-said-friend.
I got overtaken a lot, scared myself a bit, learnt a lot, then we finished the day with the track pretty much to ourselves.

I didn't get a photo of the car I spent the most time in, a Mk1 MX5 (yay for pop-up headlights), but I did get in a few laps in this silver Cayman too.
