Birch Leafings
Birch leaves – Its always a joy to see the transformation over a few days from coppery winter branches to the bright yellow-green of the new leaves.
Glastonbury Tor
The Tor sits at the heart of the mystical Somerset landscape infusing the landscape with a real heart-opening connection.
Dundon Woods
Dundon, Somerset – a secret path led through characterful trees, in magical light…
Morning Reflection
Perfect Morning Reflections, Loch an Eilein We’d been having a pattern of misty frosty nights, quickly clearing to perfect blue skies.

Bee Hug
Rhododendron Bee My Rhododendron has had its best display in years, just laden with delicate pink blossom this last week, possibly due to the mild winter we’ve experienced. The bees have been on a constant mission into the flowers all week, especially on these hot (for Scotland, that is) spring days we’ve had over Easter. […]
