Granddog and Whitley Bay

Granddog Oona came again last night from Edinburgh, bringing her humans with her to stay here over the Easter weekend. Naturally this required a trip to the beach this morning - we chose Whitley Bay.

At camera club yesterday we had a super presentation on monochrome photography so I decided to stick to monochromes for today's blips, particularly as the light seemed just right for some monochrome photos - so here's St Mary's Island and Lighthouse in the main blip.The first extra is a quick shot of a random boy pondering the waves (as he's not identifiable I thought it was OK to blip him).

Please look large, against black.

Oona was her usual rascally self so the 2nd extra shows her enjoying playing with a cardboard tube from parcel tape.

My Editor & I will miss most of the rest of Oona's stay as we're off for a long weekend away from tomorrow afternoon - to the wedding of my Editor's step-niece, on Jersey (Easyjet willing!).
