Taplow to Marlow

A very muddy winter walk walked by Toby, Raja, Ray, Chris and Amanda. In between Cookham and Marlow we were walking between flooded meadows and a very fast flowing and high water level Thames.

"The wet dawn inks are doing their blue dissolve.
On their blotter of fog the trees
Seem a botanical drawing."
