On a 1:1 Northumberland Photo Training session this morning.

After a misty start of ropey weather round the harbour, the sun came out as we wandered up towards the castle...

running here and there

 7th May 25, Howick, 6pm

Post-work jog down and up the Howick shore.



8th May 25, Shilbottle, 7:30am

The old mine railway is getting overgrown in places now which makes for wet feet on a dewy morning and the grass covers tricky ruts and rabbit holes.  Soon will come the nettles and it'll be impassable so that's probably it for running here until the autumn.



fine and dry

 5th May 25, Rothbury, 1pm

Dry weather and bonny gorse continue to be the theme of this spring





 5th May 25, Shilbottle, 8pm

A nice walk finding the best part of the day

1st May 25, Morpeth, 7:30am
