Social distancing and walking

We've recently experienced an extended period of fine, dry weather with successive days having clear blue skies. Initially this was accompanied by the sorts of temperatures more commonly experienced in July and August. However, lately the east wind has brought temperatures that are more usual for April, the consolation being that the skies retained their azure perfection. The current UK lockdown regime permits people of the same household to take a single period of outdoor exercise in their locality, keeping the duration to no more than an hour, and observing social distancing guidelines. Consequently, we have had an almost daily walk by the river, over the hills and through the woods. Today's photograph was taken on a riverside path as we walked with only a 24mm lens on the camera and clothing suitable for the lower temperatures.
