This is a shot taken looking out of our garden across to the Florida Forestry area where, potentially we will be having both wind turbines and new giant electricity pylons built. It’s not yet clear (and planning hasn’t, yet, been given) whether these will be visible from our garden…but they
Here’s the lovely Jess reclining on the bed. I’d accidentally left the 2 second self-timer on from when I was photographing the waterfalls the over day, so instead of firing the shot immediately the camera gave a high pitched count down…which really peaked Jess’s interest and so got some nice
On the way back from my morning walk with Jess we found this abandoned shoe at the entrance to the Florida Forestry Track. I didn’t notice it as we arrived and have no idea why it would be left here with its shoe laces all neatly tied. Debbie reckoned that
I continued my walk up our Burn (Harden Burn) that runs through our garden and carried on up past the waterfalls I photographed a few weeks ago. I was initially looking for a couple of ponds that I’d seen mentioned on a couple of maps (although not the Ordanance Survey

It poured for most of today – that rain that runs horizontally across the ground in clouds of rain. Except for a very wet dog walk early in the morning I was sat at my computer for much of the day and took this shot (well, it’s actually 3 shots
I was trying to come up with a minimalistic abstract in the house this afternoon. This is the staircase banister in our home and it reminded me of a robotic handshake. Talking of handshakes…one of my favourite Bad Religion tracks is “The Handshake” (yeah, tenuous, I know). You can have
We visited Kielder Water today and took a pleasant walk along the side of the reservoir. As you will see from the picture, it was flat grey. What you won’t see is that is was really quite chilly as well!
