A glorious feast!!!!

WHAT AN AMAZING DAY!!!! :-))

I have had a great day today....relaxing, visiting places...and photographing to my heart's content!!! :-))

This morning I went off early to the Holy Island of Lindisfarne, and visited the castle...really great actually...and I'm not a castle person. Took some shots down on the beach there, but I don't really understand why....the skies were darker blue on one side from the other!!! I used a polarising folter...but really...they were all kinda rubbish!!! Maybe it was too sunny....or should I have used another filter?? Advice welcome!!

Then I crossed over the causeway back near the mainland and sat in my car watching to see what happened when the tide came in!!! Am I a doubting Thomas or something....did I not believe that the sea really would cut the island off!!! After an hour....surrounded by other fascinated eejits like myself...and vaguely distracted looking at your journals on my iphone.....I heard a little boy squeal...."Look at all the water under that car!!". In my head I mumbled...NONSENSE!! Then looked out my window to see that the car two up from mine was suddenly surrounded by an inch of water that was rapidly rising!!!!!!! Doubt no more!!!!!!!!!!!! DRIVE!!

A narrow escape!!! Lol!!! :-))

The afternoon saw me back in Alnwick gardens.....sitting in the sun with a Pimms full of fruit and fresh mint!!!! DELICIOUS!!!! This is the life!!! :-))

Then I toured round the gardens I missed the other day....They are SO incredible!!!! I absolutely love and recommend them!!!!! :-))

I got some shots there I was just OVERJOYED with....but found it torture to choose!!!!!!!!! I chose this after a woman in my room in the hostel leaned over my shoulder and saw this and remarked..."Bloody hell...what is that???? Is that a flower.Good God...it's bloody amazing!!!" I think she liked it!!!!!! ;-)))

BUT.... PLEASE feel free to peek at the 3 I didn't choose....I swear I was even impressed myself!!!! LOL!!!!! :-)) The first is a flower I saw the other day and wanted to shoot, but didn't have time....utterly amazing structure and colour!!! The second is an arty one of the above blipped flower!! And the 3rd is the sunset I saw as I drove home to Berwick !!! See DELIGHTS HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-))))))))))))))))))

It's ridiculously late....night all!!!!!
