Weekly photo challenge: Sea
This week’s photo challenge is Sea. The sea is so many things to me.
It’s a great healer.
It’s wild.
It’s a source of life.
But the sea is also cruel and devastating. The wreck of the scallop dredger, the Solway Harvester now moored in Douglas Harbour is a sad reminder of the seven Scottish fisherman who lost their lives at sea in January 2000.
It’s a permanent mirror to the sky.
It’s versatile and can be fun.
I just know, close to the sea, that’s where I’ll be!
Weekly photo challenge: Carefree
I took these photographs at Curragh’s Wildlife Park last Sunday. The first couple of animals definitely display some carefree behaviour. Batman didn’t even bat an eyelid when I was photographing him! Or is it Batwoman?
The last two would need to chill out before I could include them in this week’s theme!

Billie don’t be a hero! This is one of the young mountain goats that I saw grazing on the hillside in Laxey yesterday evening.
