morning and afternoon

 19th Dec 23, Bamburgh, 9am

A huge bank of cloud with a sharply defined edge dominated the sky to the south.

A pleasing sunset from the castle gates over towards Cheviot and Hedgehope.

Curious bright clouds well after sunset.  I thought these might be noctilucent clouds but they're a summer phenomenon apparently.   They're clearly high altitude ice clouds of some sort.

canny clouds

Just in time to catch a beautiful sunrise illuminating some great clouds.

'up north'

 15th Dec 23, Alnmouth, 8:30am

Just in time for a quick check of sunrise before heading further north for today's photo training.

Quite grey later in the morning - ideal for monochrome...

icicles

 2nd December 2023, Warkworth, 9am

The first photos could be any season, the second one is definitely winter...

fascinating changeability

 1st December 2023, Warkworth, 8am

I waited in the car until the snow stopped and the shower headed off to the north.

Fossils in the sandstone.  I'm told they are Stigmaria, the roots of giant lycopods (nearest modern relatives are club mosses, but these ancient plants were massive at 30m plus)
