Wednesday walk

The dogs and I set off on a walk this morning, only to be quickly driven home by horizontal sleet, again!  By early afternoon, the skies cleared, the sun came out and as I couldn't see the next bulk of grey sky moving in from the west, we set off again.  This time we drove to Gosford where I can be quite certain I will find peace, tranquility - even with wind whistling through the treetops - and a place that always replenishes the soul.

Snowdrops are everywhere and, unashamedly, I can't stop taking photos of them because they are so lovely, and their stay is brief but incredibly joyous.  I can't get enough of them.

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.
