These photos were taken on our New Year's day walk in the East Lothian countryside. It was a beautiful day with blue skies,a light wind and temperature of 13C degrees ........... not unusual for this time of year. |
 |
Despite the fact that it's less than two weeks since the Winter Solstice,there's a distinct whiff of Spring in the air. |

From this windy hilltop we have a clear view over farmland to the Firth of Forth and Fife hills. |

The mounds on the horizon (left) conceal the remains of a Roman encampment,dating from the time of the Roman occupation of Britain. |

Maddy - merging with the wind! |

Crocuses in the Botanic Gardens,Edinburgh - late February. Spring is hopefully only a short time away! |
 |
On the way home I collected some shells,with the intention of making an artwork. |
 |
The artwork "Mermaid Lights" is now completed and I've shown it ,along with the construction process on my other blog Starry Universe ......HERE. Thankyou for visiting. |
