A cottage holiday in the Yorkshire Dales. So much to see!
In July we had some cloud on the ground mornings and went for a forest walk around Binn Hill above the River Tay. Summer mists rather than autumn mists.
On the first sunny day of summer we went to the seaside for the fist time in a long time. We walked some of the Fife Coastal Path between Elie and St Monans. So much blue sky and sea!
Such a profusion of colourful flowers in the garden. A joy after a cold spring.
In the middle of the month we enjoyed a walk in Glen Isla. It was still early spring there.
The skies have been blue grey recently which contrasts nicely with the terracotta and biscuit colours of chimney stacks in Perth. These photos are of just some of the chimneys in one street in the Craigie area of Perth. They are all different!
In the past lots of cherry blossom trees have been planted in the Glenearn Road area of Perth. They come into bloom in late April and for a short few days are glorious – but difficult to photograph as they are surrounded by cars, buildings and road signs! They have done well this year.
April was a month of bright blue skies, clouds, showers and rainbows. Buds and blossoms bloomed. We particularly enjoyed walks by the River Tay as we could see through the bare tree branches to the river banks.
March was a cold month with some dramatic skies but gradually the vegetation got greener and blossoms appeared.
In the middle of February we had a cold spell and 15 centimetres of snow, unusually feather light powder snow, which covered everything. Then the weather remained freezing and still so the delicate decoration remained for a couple of days. Perth looked so picturesque bathed in gentle winter sunshine.
