CHIMNEY

04.11.22

Really struggling to keep this up a the moment. After almost 8 years you wouldn’t believe how hard it is to find inspiration. I’ll see the year out then it’s time to take a break for a while I think!

This is day 2865. One photo a day minimum.

SHEPHERDS WARNING

06.12.21

Believe it or not, there is some scientific understanding to the rhyme, “Red sky in the morning, shepherds warning”!

A quote from he Met Office - "Red sky in the morning, shepherds warning" means a red sky appears due to the high-pressure weather system having already moved east meaning the good weather has passed, most likely making way for a wet and windy low-pressure system.”

PURE SHORES

Alderney Point located at the very far north of Herm. I love this spot, it always feels like your thousands of miles away from home but with that nostalgic Herm vibe from childhood memories.

BEDROOM VIEW

Both kids have north facing bedrooms so don’t really get to see many nice sunsets in the spring and winter but in late spring and summer I try to encourage them to just spend ten minutes looking out the window and admiring the sky.

LOOPHOLE

11.02.21

Hit snooze, you loose. That’s my motto to myself. I’ve figured, if I focus on the time I go to bed and go straight to sleep, I can control my mind to wake up before my alarm. It’s worked three days in a row. Maybe it’s the anticipation of snow, or maybe I subconsciously repeat my motto in my sleep!

In total I had 8 layers of clothes on this morning (including two pairs of trousers) but that icy wind was a killer. As soon as the colour in the sky faded I was out of there sharp.

PINK EYE

Stunning light display over St Peter Port this morning. In a panic to get somewhere I defaulted to Arcade Steps, not because it’s an easy shot but because it just offered the perfect views to watch the magic happen. Although a little less intense, the sky was like this for well over an hour before sunrise!
