Macclesfield (Cheshire East, North West England, UK)

The surroundings of Macclesfield offer some great photo opportunities. We wanted to visit Windy Way Kennels, a shelter for abandoned animals awaiting adoption. We had already adopted our kittens from there and we decided to visit the surrounding countryside as it looked quite attractive. Although the day was quite short (mid-February, St. Valentine's day) we still found some interesting photo opportunities and enjoyed walking around. A typically British scenery in which the combination of pale earth colours with the cloudy sky makes for some interesting photos.
