Edge…..


Edge, what does that mean? 

You can be on edge-nervous of travel, a new challenge

You can have an edge, a tenacity that marks you out, or perhaps even an attitude that some can dislike.

I have chosen this photo taken along the Thames and it is a living wall made from bike wheels that is used as a feature for a cafe. 

It provides an oasis in London and I liked the quirkiness of it! 

It has the edge……..

Landscape

​On a recent walk to the Essex Cricket Ground I had to take this picture . What a haven in the middle of the city. The water, the trees and the railway line up on the bridge all components taking the eye on a journey.  

I love the greenery against the red brick and it makes me think of my childhood and the Scottish countryside that we would explore with our grandparents. We were blessed and I am thankful for the memories💕

Moments-capturing motion

This year I was fortunate enough to get tickets to Wimbledon on Men’s final day, and my dream was to see Andy Murray win. From the moment I arrived at Centre Court I was locked in the moment


I took these two shots with my iPhone, the first capturing Andy in ‘flight’ after serving and the second showing the speed recorded of 147 mph of the serve Andy had just returned. 

The power is immense and when the final point was won, I was so emotional that my dream had come to fruition. Life is about maximising opportunities as they come your way, and I am grateful that I can, and do! 

Natural World-Leading Lines


Absolutely love this as purple flowers have broken through, ready to burst into a cacophony of bloom within the next few days. Nature is a wonderful thing, as every year we see plants come to life, propagate and fill the garden with colour and form. I have had these bulbs for two years and this is the first time they have flowered.

Treasure…..


I have many things in my life that I treasure; my family, friends. I am grateful for my home, car and job. There have been times where we have faced circumstances that have been difficult, but we have dealt with them and, fortunately, came through the other side.

My garden has given me pleasure and although i don’t spend as much time in it as I should, I took this photo of irises after flowering. These berries look like little red jewels and look dazzling in the sunlight.

#Solitude…..

The Some may think of solitude as being alone or lonely, I rather think of it as a place of peace, a haven. Or a wilderness to enjoy and reflect. You can be in a room full of people and still feel alone, or you can be alone but not feel lonely as you are surrounded by memories.
The picture here is from inside looking out, and sometimes we need to do that to find solitude.
