SOC

Last Friday, we visited the Scottish Ornithologists Club's resource centre, near Aberlady.  http://www.the-soc.org.uk .  There was a lovely exhibition of paintings by wildlife artist, Darren Woodhead http://www.darrenwoodheadartist.co.uk
The centre has a wonderful position, looking directly across Aberlady Bay, to the reserve where, back in July, I helped out with the plant survey work for the local authority's grazing survey project.  
We loved the exhibition, and enjoyed looking out across the bay, as the afternoon light faded.  It was a very peaceful scene.

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.  

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!

A simple vase on Monday

I have just one flower in my vase this week. A simple, pretty, wild narrow-leaved Michaelmas daisy. The vase is actually a black pottery cup. I wish I could remember where we bought it and who made it, but it is a great favourite of mine. I even made it the subject of a piece of artwork several years ago. Clearly shaped by hand, it has the air of a Japanese piece about it.
