HAZY DAYS

in

26.03.22

Five days in a row and not a cloud in sight. I’ve shot these rooftops quite a lot over the years but never with the evening sun. The hazy atmosphere and smoke from the chimney added little extra for me.

THE EDGE OF SPRING

in

24.03.22

Now our office is based in the north of the island, I rarely get a change to venture to the south coast but today was so nice it just had to be done, even it was only for ten minutes!

Season - somewhere towards the edge of spring with a very feint hint of summer.

FEATHERS

Wandered past some chickens earlier. What looked like a purple black one completely changed colour when it wandered into the evening sun. I’ve pulled up the colours but the term ‘never judge a book by it’s cover’ springs to mind.

TANK N

We may be ‘greener’ than we used to be but th reliance on fossil fuels can’t be hidden. The sun was reflecting off the cladding bouncing between the tanks but by the time I’d found an angle the glow had faded.

The first of many, a Peacock butterfly sunning itself up on a tree stump. Didn't expect to see many butterflies at this early in the year and it looks like it taken the winter pretty well!

There’s a new Heron in town, more specifically, Candie Gardens. I know it’s a different visitor because one, it freaks out whenever anyone gets close and hides in trees and two, its got both eyes. The older Heron’s left eye was missing.

ROCKY SHORES

I had hoped for a little but more to this image, the sun had potential for some even bigger, stunning light rays,

THE ROCKY

Last big night out with his lad before he jets off a new life out west. All the best mate, it’s been a pleasure. Photo credit to Steve’s sister, my selfies were photobombed.

Our little lady smashed the schhols gymnastics competition today. Unfortunately they didn’t win but like the headteacher pointed out, every girl had a smile on their faces once they’d finished their routine. Well done kids, you were all amazing.
