I love how the colours can range from deep, stormy greys to bright, fire red and as the sun finally dips below the horizon, you often get a whole myriad of beautiful shades and cloud formations as … Continue reading Skies on Fire

Splendid Autumn Sunshine
Hello! It's been a while, right? For those of you who have stuck around, thank you.

The Sea Calls to Me
Living by the coast means I often spend as much time as I can down by the sea, and with the summer slowly starting to wind down, I've been making as many visits as I can to soak up the sunshine and breathe in the salty, sea air. Last week in particular the weather was … Continue reading The Sea Calls to Me

In the Sun by the Lake.
I will never get tired of talking about my favourite spots within the Lake District and one of them is Buttermere and the surrounding valley that stretches all the way up to Newlands Pass and onwards to the rocky stretch of road that winds through Honister. We had a lovely family visitor with us a … Continue reading In the Sun by the Lake.
A Springtime Sunset
Spring is officially here, and with it comes those beautiful sunsets that seem to turn the sky into a painting. Last week saw one of these such sunsets, and I loved seeing the myriad of colours behind the trees (still leafless, but pretty) as the sun dipped below the horizon. It helped that the breeze … Continue reading A Springtime Sunset
