"Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams." -Ashley Smith

Looking back at the first tiny daffodil of the season, brought indoors to protect it from the storms that came with that change in the light...

Dry land wheat farmers get the benefit of wind turbine leasing and rights payments. There is substantial wind dynamics in these parts, close to the Columbia River.....

Taking a break on the saddle of Humphreys Peak. Still not quite at the top, the saddle is a popular spot to rest and eat before completing the last part of the climb. There is still about an hour hike to the top through the only tundra environment in Arizona.

If you look at the large view the crystalline structure of the flakes is apparent. The bokeh was created by back light on the falling snow.

We took a trip down to Groomsport to catch a few crabs. Salami and crumbed ham turned out to be a firm favourite with the crabs!

Don't you dare look out your window darling

Everything's on fire

The war outside our door keeps raging on

Hold onto this lullaby

Valtos (from the Old Norse 'Vald Hus' meaning 'house of one in power') is a large and well-populated village on the Valtos peninsula in the parish of Uig, on the south west coast of Lewis. With a large and well used pier, it was, and still is a safe harbour from the unpredictable Atlantic swell off the coastline. The stunning views from the pier extend to a number of offshore islands and skerries.

 

With its picturesque boats and horseshoe curved shoreline, Valtos pier is a natural draw (no pun intended) for artists and photographers alike.

 

Having said all that... in order to get this shot, I had to get down and dirty with the sheep nuggets that dot the grass. This is a crofting township, and where there's crofts, there's sheep, and where there's sheep, there's sheep poo, in abundance :D It was worth rolling about in the muck. Those lobster pots provided just the right filter for the low winter sunlight
