what's the story?

 30th June 2021, Warkworth, 8:30am

I don't know how it got here but this is a pineapple with a back story.

A latter day Robinson Crusoe of the fruit world.

I'll maybe come back and collect it if out hasn't been claimed by Friday!


Daisy was enjoying the coolness of the morning.

The river and the sea have carved a new shape in th beach this morning.

Lat year in lockdown I was doing a lot of cycling around here - not so much this year but it was great to be out and about again.

stealing the show

 28th June 2021, Alnmouth, 6pm

Beautiful waves this afternoon but the clouds stole the show.





two weathers

 26th June 2021, Warkworth, 9am

A rainy day (after weeks of warm, sunny days)

The sedum held onto the raindrops like precious jewels.

The contrast with wild thyme was a beautiful splash of colour on a grey day.

Back to the warm sun and Daisy was keen to dip her toes in the sea to cool off.

Working high up in the cheviots - I had to brave a lot of midgies for this shot of the last sunset light shining across to Simonside.

Joyous Answer

 11th June 2021, Boulmer, 6am

The early light wakes me 
And makes me curious 
For what’s going on 
Down by the sea 

Not a lot 
Is the joyous answer

white feet

 10th June 2021, Warkworth, 7am

Up bright and early.  This continued warm and dry weather means you just sling on shorts and a shirt and off you go...




Trying to let my feet catch up with the tan on my legs


On the path back home for breakfast

there and back again

9th June 2021, Embleton Bay, 9am

Exercising the semi-retired status today. We had a lovely long walk from High Newton to Dunstanburgh and back via a refreshment break in the sun outside the Ship Inn.
