I like this, but I have never made such a spherical sphere from the 360 camera before - there is usually *something* jutting out.

This was taken on a walk through the salt marshes between Blakeney & Cley on the Norfolk coast & if you'd like to see what it's like in non-spherical form I'm going to add some more photos, as I took a few.

If you don't want to see what it's like in non-spherical form LOOK AWAY NOW, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, LOOK AWAY.

*ahem*

This is the start of the walk. It features a boat instead of a car, because there is a big warning that the car park can disappear under water at high tide, so the boat felt potentially quite useful.

We had many hours before high tide, but the signs remained slightly unnerving.

The path is slightly raised and heads straight out across the salt marshes. The view back to the village is pretty cute. Also a bit heat hazy because it was HOT. I do love a windmill though.

This is the view in the other direction, out to sea. IT IS SO VERY, VERY FLAT.

I think I keep repeating that it's flat, but I live in Scotland, in the hills by the Highland Boundary Fault, where it is very NOT FLAT, and it just threw me with its flatness.

So flat.

@eclectech Yeah it’s very flat around here, especially that part of north Norfolk. If you venture as far south as Sheringham, and go to Sheringham Park, that’s about as hilly as it gets

@andycarolan Yes, we had a walk there too. Another very pleasing place, and much needed shade from the trees 😁

@eclectech Awesome! It’s a lovely place… did you venture to the tall lookout tower near the house?
Show threadeclectechJul 20
@andycarolan We were heading there but one of the party was feeling a bit off so we didn't make it all the way. Only went up the small one. Next time!

@eclectech that’s a shame… but the small one is still fun. Lots of shaded tree nooks around that area too IIRC

@andycarolan The bit we saw was beautiful, and the shade was an absolute delight (it was during one of the recent heatwaves and I am even less used to extreme heat than I am flat land!)

@eclectech That’s definitely the best part of the park! When the rhododendrons flower, it’s a carpet of colour from the view of that tower.

The tall tower is ok, but it’s a long way off + a big climb if one of your party didn’t feel great. It’s an especially exposed route with little chance of shade in the hot weather.

@andycarolan Yeah, it was the lack of shade on the walk that was a deciding factor. We headed back for an ice-cream in the cafe instead 😁

@eclectech haha, you chose wisely
