Photography: Edinburgh, Scotland

Went to Scotland for the first time this year, fabulous visit to Edinburgh. Awesome city, loved the Old Town. The soundtrack of the bag pipes filling the air. Tartan everywhere and the odd head of  bright ginger hair!!

Highlights....

Touch the toe.... it's good luck

Photography: highlights over the past couple of months

It's been a little while since I made a blog post..... this doesn't mean I haven't been out with the camera.... a few of my favourite photos over the last couple of weeks.

This cheeky little chappy was in my parents garden, trying hard not to be seen.

Spring in my back garden and the fern is starting to uncurl
