St. Andrews is a seaside town northeast of Edinburgh, on Scotland’s east coast. It's known for its many golf courses, including the Old Course, with the landmark Swilcan Bridge at the 18th hole. The British Golf Museum chronicles the history of U.K. golf. On a headland nearby are the ruins of St. Andrews Castle, with its medieval bottle dungeon. Close to the castle is the University of St. Andrews, founded in 1413.
This feathery friend followed me along the canal bank chirping a beautiful song.

Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date.
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature’s changing course, untrimmed;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st,
Nor shall death brag thou wand’rest in his shade,
When in eternal lines to Time thou grow’st.
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this,
and this gives life to thee.

The Sun moves through the sky and changes how we see things all the time. The Iris is sharing beautifully shaded areas because where the Sun is in the sky during this photo. And hour from when the photo was taken the Iris would have looked different from this particular capture. Nature is beautiful and fragile and also ultra generous in how much she gives us daily. Take the time often to enjoy Nature and give praise for her generosity. Gratitude and Kindness need to be a large part of our personal profile. It’s never to late to make a change or to make a commitment to help preserve Nature.
Light and shade, Finland.
Cold and sunny winter day in a bog. There were lots of tracks of different animals but only some birds were visible.
It's not necessary easy to photograph a beautiful winter landscape as snow has swallowed all the colours and details. Here the setting sun provided some contrast with light and shadows.
