Happy New Year!

As 2017 fizzles away, I found something in the garden today which holds the promise of good and lovely things for 2018.  The first flowers on my witch hazel tree!  

Happy New Year everyone, from the running wave!

      That's what I thought!! Love witch hazel, and the lovely particular scent it has. I hope you and your family have a happy, healthy 2018. Goodness knows what will be served up to us this year, but whatever comes along, there will always be beautiful things to look at! Hooray! A x

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.

So, having worked out the tide times, I decided today was the day, and off we went. Below is our starting point, the bay at Gullane.  It's a lovely beach, very popular with dog walkers.
