West Lomond

… a beautiful day for a walk …

… I’m heading where the cloud is pointing …

… the wind was against me ….

… and nearly blew me away at the top …

… sadly far too chilly to stay too long ….

… but the views are always worth the effort …

… walking back …

… in the slowly setting sun …

… and the beautiful autumn colours …

… warmed my heart and soul …

Floral Garden

… I remember my brother spending hours …

… creating elaborate scenes …

… today I did the same …

… such an absorbing and creative toy …

… now I understand his fascination …

… and admire his focus and attention to detail …

… I never had the patience …

… but I do love gardens …

… and this toy brought back happy memories of my brother and also my father’s lovely garden …

A Circular Walk

… along the Sandy path …

… through the water logged sand dunes …

… and on to the dazzling beach …

… where spooky finds await …

… under the soft white clouds …

… then across the heathland …

… passing my favourite tree …

… on the way to the woods …

… then along the canal …

… reflecting on the tranquility around me …

… back to the car …

… which is waiting under a dramatic sky …

On the beach

… so relaxing just watching the sea …

Remembering my brother

… gone but never forgotten …

… self portraits …

… from Alex’ student days …

… Diploma in Fine Art, Wimbledon Art School, 1970-73 …

… I miss him …
