Due to the current ‘coronavirus lockdown’, I have been unable to take any scenic, outdoorsy shots other than from my back garden, which is precisely where this photo was taken earlier this evening.

For the past three months, we’ve had nothing but bad weather. We literally had storm after storm each and every weekend from the start of January to mid-March. Typically, as soon as the entire UK was ordered asked to ‘stay inside’ the sun began to shine and we’ve had the most wonderful weather.…

Given that my family and I are currently self-isolating thanks to me having symptoms of mild flu (a high temperature, aches and pains and a tight chest) I haven’t actually been out of the house since Thursday. I have therefore pinched a picture from my good friend J, who regularly posts and shares her scenic pictures which she shoots around our local area.

This picture really sums up my current mood; the thick, dark trees looming overhead, shielding the light from passing through.…

I haven’t been about much this week as I’ve been busy with family matters. Whilst I was away I kept my mind occupied by looking through pictures from the past including this shot of the shore which I took back in January. 

So much has changed since then, these past few months have gone by in the blur. Although things aren’t quite what they were (and I doubt they will ever be quite the same again) life is beginning to look the tiniest bit brighter.…

To say this week has been a rollercoaster is an understatement. I guess the idea of a rollercoaster would imply that life has been up, down, up, down but in reality, there haven’t really been many if any ups at all.

Everything seems so surreal at present, at least it does for the first five minutes after I wake, that is until reality smacks me hard in the face.…

It’s been so long since we’ve seen snow that I’d almost forgotten what it looks like. Earlier this week the white stuff arrived and whilst it didn’t stay for long it was a lovely sight to see.

Sadly the kids didn’t get the chance to go sledging as before they were even able to get up, ready and dressed the snow had melted leaving slushy puddles in its absence.…
