The Fallen Leaf

Alrighty There People!

I love this picture, taken in the grounds of Harmony Gardens in Scotland.

The leaf's gorgeous greenery contrasts fantastically with the pebbled ground.

I just had to whip out the N95 to snap it up.

Water Droplet On A Flower

Alrighty There People!

Of all the pictures that I have taken so far, this is my ultimate fave. I was in a National Trust garden (again!), on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. We had been to Scotland for the weekend, and were heading back home when we spotted this Trust garden, and parked up and popped in. There were some lovely flowers around, which will be added to this blog in due course, but this one was a beauty.

I have no idea what it is called, but the way that the water was hanging on the flower, about to drop, really caught my eye. I waited as long as I dared, as I didn't want to the water to drop off.

I grabbed the N95, changed it to close up mode, and snapped it.

Everyone - yes, everyone - who sees this photo says that it is gorgeous.

What do you think?

Waterfall at Allen Banks & Staward Gorge, Northumberland

Alrighty There People!

In July, I was traipsing along a muddy track, when I came across this small stream. I followed it down a steep slippery slope, and looking back up, I saw a fantastic sight. I whipped out the N95, and the following two images were the result.

This was at a National Trust site in Northumberland, on a particularly drizzly day - so bad, in fact, that I was wearing my wellies. But this view up the tumbling water was so impressive that I just had to capture it - and I think that the images are pretty good, even if I do say so myself! Image details:
