One our favourite ways of spending time together.

We love slow walks. They give a chance to admire the surrounding nature, to talk and photograph. Usually, I’m with my oversized camera backpack slowly turning my head 360 degrees trying to capture something. Monika with her phone spotting some tinniest hidden flowers, rays of light, that I would never notice, and snapping them for her painting needs.

And if we get a bit of sun at the same time those are the best moments.

Usually, when I am on a walk like this I don't take off the camera my beloved Tamron SP 70-200 f/2.8 Di VC USD most of the time. Fast and accurate focus, great warm colours, pleasing contrast, and compact size for that type of lens make it one of my favourite walking mates.

Photos were taken during our long walk between Newry and charming Warrenpoint.
