I have taken shots of these cliffs many times but I never feel I have exhausted the subject, the light, sky and colours are always slightly different
No one could claim that East Yorkshire is a place to come to see dramatic landscape, it's an area soft rolling hills and flat plains . However where East Yorkshire meets the North Sea for a few miles you have these wonderful chalk cliffs that are full of drama and spectacle .

Still posting old stuff until new adventures arise.
This was Cuckmere Haven just days before Europe went into Covid lockdown. We watched the news every night and it became clear the World was on fire. March 16th we drove straight from Brighton to the Eurotunnel, with a small stop to shoot this picture, to get back to France. We had train tickets for late afternoon but exchanged those for a train just before noon.

Taken on Ivinghoe Beacon in the setting sun, this lovely little butterfly sat and posed for a few shots.
“The longer I live the more beautiful life becomes. If you foolishly ignore beauty, you will soon find yourself without it. Your life will be impoverished. But if you invest in beauty, it will remain with you all the days of your life.”
Another from a lovely afternoon at Rough Bank a week or so ago.
Literally praying for this wild weather to ease for 4 or 5 hours at Old Trafford this afternoon or tomorrow.
Chalk Creek takes its name from the famous Chalk Cliffs on the south side of Mount Princeton (14,196), and the area is also known for its hot springs. The creek feeds a healthy stand of cottonwoods that show off well in fall.
A smart female Chalk-hill Blue on Bird's-foot Trefoil.
Heading to Rough Bank soon to hopefully catch up with some second brood Adonis Blues. I've got the idea of filming one as it wakes up in the early morning sun - let's see.
A delightful male Chalk-hill Blue at Rough Bank, Gloucestershire. There's often quite some variation in size and markings on these butterflies - this one was a bit smaller and neater compared to some of the other males seen.

Taken a little earlier in the summer in the South Downs National Park, when there was more sun and less wind. Summers can be very unpredictable in the UK :)
Chalk pastel and pastel pencil version in vertical format on 18" x 24" mixed media paper. I drew it from a photo I took at Organ Pipe National Monument in Arizona. Thanks to my drawing teacher this semester, Bryan Robertson, for teaching me how to work in pastels.
Another shot from Ivinghoe Beacon. Taken a few weeks ago when there were plenty around. All that remain now are a few tatty looking specimens.
Another late evening shot from Ivinghoe Beacon. Loads about at the moment including more small coppers than I have seen there in a long time.

Out today with Pauls Pix 53, ianbartlett and ajlelliott for an 11 mile walk from Alfriston, along the River Cuckmere to the coast, and back.
It was a bit windy at times, but there is a storm approaching, so to be expected, but it wasn't that cold.
