Another good walk

The weekend starts here!

Well, mine has! That's my shadow taking in the wonderful view. Tilly and I had a blissful walk this afternoon. We and six others had the whole beach to ourselves. Magic!

This picture looks west towards North Berwick and the Bass Rock,

and this one looks back the other way in an easterly direction.

We walked around the headland and sat on a sandstone bench which looks out to sea and across the bay to Dunbar and Belhaven Beach. It is a place to sit, ponder and dream. The curlews were calling and an impressive selection of seabirds were busy on the rocks below.

The final stretch of our walk today was along a very different beach. I always enjoy the contrast between the vast expanse of sand of Ravensheugh and this other beach which is rocky, full of shells and tree-lined.

The daylight hours are definitely lengthening now. As I write it is 16.45 and the light is still good and the sky is duck-egg blue. A good start to the weekend!

In a vase on Monday - colour

The intense colours in my vase this week come from nasturtiums, sweetpeas and a single glorious zinnia! Their beauty and love of life speak for themselves and need no further words from me! Enjoy!

Possibly the last post and a sizzlingly hot vase on Monday

The border in our tiny garden is in an in-between phase at the moment and not very colourful, but elsewhere there are pops of high summer colour and I have brought them together in my vase today. The running wave uses Blogger as it's vehicle and they are changing the way a post is created but unfortunately I cannot make the new format work. I can't progress beyond the title! I cannot navigate to the main body of the post to create text. The new template has no prompts for adding photos, weblinks, to format the text, change font etc. It may be my old MacBook that's as fault but I can't do anything about that!! Are any other IAVOM bloggers who use Blogger having the same problems? I have tried, three times, to contact Blogger through their 'Help' prompt and received no feedback or contact whatsoever. This post is using the old 'Legacy' format, which no longer permits any kind of formatting of text, and so after four attempts I have finally manage...

Early morning light

There have been some cracking early morning skies this week. The sunrise has generated a strong rose gold light which has been picked up not only in the clouds but also through the silver-white grasses around the edge of the golf course. I always marvel at the clouds. Constantly changing, formations that have never been seen before, never to be seen again.
