Holiday photo album!

I took hundreds and hundreds of photographs during our wonderful holiday on Colonsay.  It has taken a little while to find time to sit down and trawl through them all, but here, in addition to the photos already posted, are my abiding images of everything that went to make up a perfect holiday.

Occupying an area of 11,409 acres, Colonsay offers all of this, and much much more!
A little something I left behind on the morning of our departure!
Leaving Colonsay, and looking back at the island's simple outline, it is hard to believe this modest land mass holds all the wonders shown above, not to mention its history.  The best bit is, it will all be there when we go back this time next year.  Before the ferry left, we were all booked up and ready to do it all over again!  Hooray!

  1. Thank you so much for all the photos which give a real flavour of life on Colonsay. As you say, it's remarkable that such a small area holds such a variety of flora and fauna - and the history is fascinating (you sparked my interest so that I just had to research as much as I could). Living in Cornwall, I'm never going to get to see Colonsay 'in the flesh', so I am really grateful to see it through your camera. Thank you - Rosemary xx

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.
