Evening Colours, Monadliath mountains There was a beautiful evening atmosphere with light haze turning the sky completely peachy, as the sun set over the Monadliath Mountains. I’m just loving the colour. “The quality of emotional knowing has a finer integration with our spirit than anything that comes from barren intellectual processes. This point of view […]

Wood Anenome
Wood Anenome, Strathspey, Scotland. Wood Anenome photographed this week in evening light – carpeting the floor of the birch wood.

Blue with ripples
