much better weather

 29th April 2021, Alnmouth, 7am

This morning's beach weather.  So much more interesting than cloudless blue skies.

sunshine and showers

 28th April 2021, Alnmouth, 7pm

A beautiful evening walk 

Until those beautiful clouds disgorged a shower of hailstones that turned the skies to hazy grey and the golf course greens to white.

round the sun

A beautiful morning on the beach with a halo round the sun...

Happy Earth Day

 22nd April 2021, Warkworth, 8am

Beautiful waves this morning. 

When the sun is behind the waves, there's a flash of colour just as they break that I like to call 'wavelight' 

a busy day...

A quick walk with Daisy before two PhotoWalks today.  Daisy paw so so sore last night she wouldn't go out but she's a bit better this morning.  Fortunately you don't have to walk far for a nice view round here...

21st April 2021, Embleton Bay, 9am

The first PhotoWalk.  This weather is beautiful but chilly in the wind still.

Back to Alnmouth for a 2nd PhotoWalk further towards Boulmer than I normally wander with Daisy

early enough

 20th April 2021, Alnmouth, 5:30am

Watching the ships roll in,

And I watch them roll away again

Warming up with a coffee in the back of the car it struck me that my free mug has an appropriate sponsor for a middle-aged bloke who’s up too early...

taking a dip

 16th April 2021, Budle, 10am

All about the swimming for Henry today, not so much for Daisy (or me for that matter!)

floating island

 15th April 2021, Alnmouth, 7am

Coquet Island was trying to float above the sea this morning... 

Apparently it's a very rare effect seen only during cold winter weather caused by a temperature inversion trapping cold air over the sea which bends the light.

high and low

 14th April 2021, Embleton Bay, 7am

Back up in our favourite perch high above Embleton Bay

Meanwhile, back down to earth!

A nice morning to ride along the sands....

high tide afternoon

12th April 2021, Warkworth, 4pm

Not much room on the beach but fun was had dodging the waves.

I love these sand patterns under the afternoon sun.

Thanks for the photobomb Daisy!

 

quick snow

 11th April 2021, Longhorsley, 7am

Last night's snow settled on spring buds, blossoms and catkins. 

There was time for a wee bit of fun for the dogs before the bright morning sunshine soon melted it away.
