Life is a journey of contrasts. Today’s photograph also speaks of contrast. The rapeseed flowers dominate, whilst the river meanders on its floodplain. There is evidence of a change of direction, witnessed by the oxbow lake in the mid-ground. The sheep gently grazing. Our individual lives are full of contrasts, often moment by moment. InContinue reading “Contrast”

From tawny owl chick to a hare in a field…what delights! The hare looked like it was deliberately posing for the shot; utterly prepared for the intrusion of a human with a camera! The hare is sentient being like you and I. Part of the glorious creation in which we each are included. Some timesContinue reading “Hare today….”

A Tawny Owl chick obviously contemplating. This photograph was taken yesterday in a nearby nature reserve. There were three chicks plus an adult bird, showing themselves off to the public! I have no idea whether owls contemplate, but this youngster seems to be ‘in the zone’ as they say! I have a hunch that theyContinue reading “Contemplating…….”

Taken as the sun went down a couple of days ago. It just spoke to me about the brush strokes of an artist, but in the sense of the Divine Artist. The creative God who lifts our spirits by simple acts throughout our days. It is so easy to miss what is presented, because ofContinue reading “Brush strokes….”

A shout of praise! I photographed this crop whilst on a walk yesterday. The juxtaposition of the sky and the rapidly growing crop; the vibrant green shouting out to be seen and perhaps heard. The almost painted sky, topping things off ! Hallelujah indeed. I’m sure that you will interpret the scene in your ownContinue reading “Hallelujah!”

Our front door! The top glass side panel has unfortunately not revealed what is written on a notice, attached to the inside of the pane. It reads, ‘Birds nesting in tree’. Helpfully placed by Helen! Because, yes….Linnets have made their nesting place in the bowl of the Acer tree. Despite all the coming and going,Continue reading “Spot the nest…”

I was about to start writing this blog when Helen drew my attention to the scene outside. Captured in a moment and transferred to today’s blog! A definite Here and Now moment, which I simply offer to you, without the need for words. As always, may the Lord bless you and keep you and makeContinue reading “Here and now!”

Jesus said; “Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.” This photograph I took a few days ago, shows squally rain showers drenching the good folk of Alnmouth! It just got me thinking about about how so much of what Jesus said was rooted in theContinue reading “Refeshment….”

An amazing sunset at the ending of yesterday. The light playng with the clouds and the sea as it rolled in upon the shorelive. I looked and I took deep breaths and was moved to the heart of my being and soul. Some might call it breath taking, but I sense more of a profoundContinue reading “Beyond words….”

A fountain of water, rather than a stream of living water ? The juxtaposition of the fountain and the tree stump just had to be photographed! There is something quite surreal abot this scene. which was the motivation for a shot! Even the growth on the top of the stump, speaks of hope and newContinue reading “Perspective”
