The walking group gathered together today for a short walk before enjoying an extremely good Christmas lunch. We walked through the dunes and along the beach at Gullane. The orange of the sea buckthorn berries provided a glowing backdrop to the beach, the wind blew the cobwebs away, and it was a very good start to the festive season.
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.





Beautiful back drop with those buckthorn berries...such a natural festive look before a yummy lunch. Lucky you! x
ReplyDeleteThose Sea Buckthorn berries give fantastic colour to the blue skies and sunshine of your beach photos It sounds as though you had perfect weather for your walk and you must have worked up a good appetite for the Christmas lunch.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your messages! Aren't the berries beautiful. Super charged with vitamin C, sharp as can be, but I would love to go and pick some to make a lovely golden coloured jelly! They are a nightmare to pick, though, because they squish as you try and pick them off the branch. Another of life's little challenges! A x
ReplyDeleteGet one of the grandsons to come up with a device to pick said berries....Could be an interesting holiday concept!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;}
