Here’s a dreamy picture I took on a recent family trip back to the Cotswolds. This is the River Leach, a tributary of the River Thames, flowing towards the small town of Leachlade.
As it happens, I’ve photographed this picturesque scene several times over the years but I’ve never been happy with the results. This time I edited it using some presets and this was the result!
It’s a lovely spot that’s right alongside a footpath. The kids enjoy splashing in the river as it’s very shallow at this point. Only thing is, if I look at this picture for too long I get a little homesick as this is the part of the world where I spent most of my childhood and call home.
Are you getting away anywhere over the summer break yet? If so, I hope you manage to make some great memories and maybe even taken a few photos.

Very peaceful, it’s such a gorgeous part of the world.
What a fun water feature.
And I think a very old water feature as well.
What a gorgeous spot for a paddle. x
Sure is Kim. I went back the other day with the kids but they couldn’t forge the river because cows were blocking the route!
Like the crystal clear water.
Ah yes, it is very clean water as it happens.
Beautiful place and looks really good with the filter x #mysundayphoto
It is a beautiful spot Sam. As it happens, I was there again this week and it was as beautiful as ever.
Feels extremely relaxing this photo John
Thank you for linking up to #MySundayPhoto
What a lovely photo. I’m glad you made it back to the Cotswolds for a visit.
I don’t think I’ve ever been to Lechlade, despite living in Gloucestershire.
The Cotswolds are so beautiful. We visit often. We are actually going there this weekend. I would love to retire there!
