Guernsey

Small beach but massive character. Such a stunning location but it’s closed off at the moment (again) due to a landslide!

Once in a while you get rewarded for those early mornings. Bordeaux under a blanket of rain with the sun trying to push through, giving an amazing sky.

Gorgeous, still evening at one the highest points on the common. I had to add me in for scale.

As the skies greyed over, my mind was shouting black and white. Sketchy waves nearly had me a few times and the sea spray wrote off 8most of the images!

In the National Trust grounds of Le Moulin de Bas, set back from the now working water wheel, the geese were guarding their patch. Lots of ducklings running around too! It felt like a scene from an old ladybird book, back in the day.

I’ve always liked the look of these cosy little cottages along the west coast. The thought of a roaring fire watching the waves crasher in the winter seems more appealing as I get older.

Took the long way home to find a ‘classic Guernsey’ image. Bordeaux always has some interesting fishing boats and these beauties have had a fresh lick of paint and the flag was still flying proud from Liberation Day.

The biggest celebrations in the Guernsey calendar, Liberation Day. Popped up to L’Ancrsse to watch the cavalcade with an hour stop to check out the vehicles. Happy Liberation Day folks!

Some spots are worth walking the extra mile and this one his no exception. That water was so clear!

I always venture up to this spot round this time of year but try to time it as close to low tide as possible to really emphasise the crystal clear waters and the extent of the sandy beach at Petit Bot.

Lots of bunting and flags starting to pop up ready for the Liberation Day celebrations next week!

Returning to an old favourite, the Bathing Pools. I didn’t check the tides like I normally do and the clouds didn’t really inspire but a long exposure rescued the trip!

Had to drop some bits off to the cargo holding area this afternoon. Had to grab a snap of the crane on the way out.

Another trip down to Bluebell Woods. I think I’ve seen enough for this year.

Wandering through the quiet lanes of St Saviour. This house has always caught my attention and feels like a classic ‘Guernsey House’.

I was told about some lambs up by the reservoir so I went to check them out. The lamb’s got a little E.T. look to it.

The Saumarez Park clan out in force again. I think I counted about 15 ducklings in total.

The time felt right to grab an ‘evening’ Bluebell Woods shot before they wilt away for another year.
Get down and check them out this weekend if you haven’t already.

I tried so hard not to drag the kids down this year but in the end I couldn’t resist and they agreed after I let them take some silly selfies with my phone.
