Red Valerian (Centranthus Ruber) in all of its redness together with white and pink variations adorning a hedge/wall just outside Peel. I grows in many places on the Isle of Man but not many as abundantly as this.
Had a little play with this in that I removed some cars and a sign to tidy it up for Sliders Sunday!

Anyone who has ever heard of Game of Thrones will know of this place - The Dark Hedges, are a row of very old beech trees that line up both sides of a road called the Bregagh Road near Armoy in Co. Antrim, Northern Ireland. They've always been a tourist attraction, but the HBO television series, Game of Thrones has made them globally famous.
Yesterday morning, Mum and I rose up very early and headed over to try and catch the sunrise through the trees. A lot of mist had come down and lead to this amazing scene! Dark and eerie and a little bit creepy!
Although there were a couple of other photographers in the same frame of mind as myself, I did manage to get a number of shots without any other people in them.
This is a slightly different take on the usual scene from here, but I hope you like it :)
Back to work tomorrow again, but Mum and I certainly enjoyed a few days away and the weather was very kind to us :)
Thanks for stopping by and for all the comments and faves :) I'll try and get caught up with you again soon :)
Enjoy your Wednesday evening :)
After the corn has been harvested the land is tilled and there is a gap to allow hedge cutting to occur before next years harvest is sown.
I personally would prefer less trimming of hedges to help the wildlife.
This is taken from Legram Lane which is part of the rural setting near Marton Cum Grafton village. It’s nestled within North Yorkshire’s scenic landscape, which you might already know is rich with historic farms and countryside charm.
The Dark Hedges is an avenue of beech trees along Bregagh Road between Armoy and Stranocum in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. The trees form an atmospheric tunnel that has been used as a location in HBO's popular television series Game of Thrones, which has resulted in the avenue becoming a tourist attraction.

there are fields of yellow that stretch to the edges of the earth, I swear it, when I found this location I felt like crying.
This beautiful avenue of beech trees was planted by the Stuart family in the eighteenth century.
It was intended as a compelling landscape feature to impress visitors as they approached the entrance to their Georgian mansion, Gracehill House. Two centuries later, the trees remain a magnificent sight and have become one of the most photographed natural phenomena in Northern Ireland. In fact, the iconic trees have been used as a filming location in the epic TV series Game of Thrones representing the Kingsroad.
Featured Scene: Season 2, Episode 1: The North Remembers - On the King's Road, Arya Stark has escaped from King’s Landing, disguised as a boy. She is with Yoren, Gendry, Hot Pie and others who are to join the Night’s Watch, in a cart, travelling north on the Kingsroad.

The Dunnock is a bird species of the genus Brown Accentor, the only genus in the family of the same name. The Dunnock is a widespread and frequent breeding and summer bird in Central Europe, but because of its inconspicuous plumage it is usually only noticed for its vocalisations. In some areas of Central Europe it is even an annual bird. Hedge sparrows are particularly common in young spruce stands. In the mountains they occur as far as the knee timber region.

Die Heckenbraunelle ist eine Vogelart aus der Gattung Braunellen, der einzigen Gattung in der gleichnamigen Familie Braunellen. Die Heckenbraunelle ist in Mitteleuropa ein weit verbreiteter und häufiger Brut- und Sommervogel, der wegen des unauffälligen Gefieders aber meist nur durch seine Lautäußerungen auffällt. In einigen Gebieten Mitteleuropas ist sie sogar ein Jahresvogel. Heckenbraunellen sind besonders in jungen Fichtenbeständen anzutreffen. Im Gebirge kommen sie bis in die Knieholzregion vor.

The Dark Hedges, an avenue of 18th Century beech trees near Armoy in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. The road has been used as a filming location in the television series Game of Thrones where it was known as King's Road. I think I'm one of the few people left in the UK who can say that they've never seen an episode of Game of Thrones.
