Coastal race

Whilst I was on the Laxey coastal path today there was a yacht race under-way from Douglas Yacht Club. It would be a shame not to post some of the photographs even though visibility and light wasn’t great today. It looked quite tricky out on the open water and I couldn’t believe how close the yachts get to each other.

It’s the Tower Insurance Autumn Series 2013

Lemon and lime light

I  wandered through Laxey Glen today. A wonderful crunch underfoot and beautiful colours. When autumn arrives, I always think it’s my favourite season, but then I say that about the other three, even winter after last year’s long and harsh slog. If you’re reading this from somewhere that has really, really harsh winters, I apologise as I know we’re drama queens over here!

Weekly photo challenge: Good morning

My mornings often start with an early walk with my camera and last weekend some dew laden foliage caught my eye so I stopped to take some photographs. I nearly jumped out of my skin as I spotted some strange creatures on the leaves. I’ve never seen or heard of them before – they’re Green Shield Bugs.

Sorry, don’t have nightmares – I’m sure they’re harmless!
