The A537 winds up into the hills above Macclesfield in Chesshire before descending into Buxton in Derbyshire, its called the Cat & Fiddle after the pub that sits high in the hills. This was the last view we saw before the thick fog shrouded us. CV
One of my lovely Maidenhair Ferns is putting out a lot of Fiddle heads. It reminded me of the Bass Section in an orchestra.
A miserable morning, after a 5 and a half hour drive north for sunrise, the forecasts all looked great over 5 apps....I ended up shooting this in the rain, just because I was there.

This view of Bow Fiddle Rock shows a little more of the craggy rocks that line the small cove in which it is located .The small beach is made of pebbles then your on to the rocks ,not hard to get down there but you do have to careful .Located just outside Portnockie,Moray,North East Scotland ....well worth a visit if your up that way
A natural sea arch the Bow Fiddle Rock is so called because it resembles a fiddle bow . I took this from the pebble beach, if you view it from the cliff top it looks completely different I think from there the top part looks like a whale . The rock is about fifty feet
( 15m ) high, for perspective the white dots on the rock are gulls.
The Bow Fiddle is near the small coastal village of Portknockie on the Moray Firth .
Tough going up here so I didn't get very far. I think it would have got easier if I had got to the top as the snow would likely have been frozen.
Wandering the side streets of Key West I came across this tribute to a local musician. Urban murals are part of what attracts me to cities.
I was mindlessly watching a Star Trek 2nd Generation episode the other night. In one of the scenes Commander Riker, while searching for a friend, opens a hatch deep in the bowels of the Enterprise. As the door slides open it reveals this amazing rain forest scene with a beautiful stream running down the middle of it. At first I think, how cool is that, a rain forest in a spaceship, and then it dawns on me that I've seen this scene before in real time, and it's only 30 minutes away.
Rather than drive over there to verify my suspicions, I dip into my archives and voila, there is the place, exactly like I photographed it in the fall of 2014. Okay, so it isn't the actual place on the starship, but it's close enough, and my spot was not created by a hologram either.
The image shows Fiddle Creek Falls cascading over the rocks on its way to joining the North Fork of the Yuba. Fun image fact: the flue on the right side of the image still delivers the drinking water to the residents down stream.
All real--no holograms--total truth in advertising.

Rob and I headed coastal yesterday. I ultimately wanted to get out to the coast north of Aberdeen as Rob hadn't been out that way before, but made a short stop at the Bow Fiddle Rock at Portknockie as we passed. I was hoping for some wild spring flowers on my usual cliff top location and found some pretty pink Sea Thrift to add some pleasing colour.
Sunrise at Bow Fiddle Rock at Portknockie in Scotland. It is an incredible natural sea arch on the north-eastern coast of Scotland. It is 16m tall and is so called because it resembles the tip of a fiddle bow.
Portknockie, Scotland
Sat on the cobbles waiting for a better sky, which didn't materialise this time. Just a numb bum :)
For scale, the white dots in the middle are gulls.
Bow Fiddle Rock is a natural sea arch near Portknockie on the north-eastern coast of Scotland. It is so called because it resembles the tip of a fiddle bow. It is composed of Quartzite, a metamorphic rock which was originally quartz sandstone.
For some time now, I have thought about trying to get an image from the shore where Bow Fiddle Rock is normally photographed but not include Bow Fiddle itself in the image. I pretty much managed that the other day but it is still ever so slightly in the image. I genuinely feel that this was only possible due to the very atmospheric conditions that presented themselves to me on this day. This is the coastline of Portknockie in Morayshire, Scotland.
Deep in the woods just off Highway 49 near Goodyears Bar, you will find Fiddle Creek and along with it, Fiddle Falls. The flume running from just above the falls still provides water to the local inhabitants.
