two weathers

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.

Sorry for the lack of recent blog updates - First time I've sat at my computer for ages!!

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

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

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

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.

Beautiful wild flowers and grasses - always worth spending a moment's appreciation as you walk by...

I went to the beach despite days of misty fret but I found bright skies and long shadows.  I was dressed for a chilly walk and soon git a bit warm. I'm not complaining though. 

Two very different subjects today but the link is the simplicity of the compositions and how the weather has led to that simplicity. In one, the mist, the flat sky and the calm sea and in the other bright direct sunlight against a proper blue sky just a mile inland.
