A joint party for Albie's 1st and Daniel's 4th birthday. Perfect way to spend to finish off the weekend. Such a cute little boy :)

COBO HIGHWAY
154.365
West coast sunrise over the road to Cobo Bay. The skies were pretty dull and I nearly gave up on this but eventual the sun broke through for a few minutes giving some awesome clarity on the landscape.
Works well with some car trails too.

FORT GREY

Another stunning day in Guernseyland. The clouds started to roll in late afternoon and I had hoped for some more colour in the sky but it was still a lovely evening. 882 days complete!

SILVER STUDDED BLUE

Trying to keep my fitness levels up with another cliff walk around Le Gouffre. I did stop far too many times to get a shot of the butterflies. Slightly messy background on this but they tend to stick close to the ground on windy days.

DUCK AND COVER

Finally found the rubber ducks! I stumbled upon them over a year ago in a random lane way out west but never remembered where! Perfect weather for them today.

Took the kids to Candie Garden to pass some time and Alana spotted the Heron fishing in the pond. She also freaked out because 'it looked at her'!

DAMSELFLY STUDY III
146.365
In a moment of weakness I couldn't help but return to capture a few more shots of the Damselfly's. This was the shot I had in mind but I was hoping for more backlight and slightly thinner grass. They just didn't understand what I was trying to tell them!

LA GRANDE MARE

The low lying wetlands of La Grande Mare, basking in the hazy evening sun.
BURNET MOTH
144.365
Lots of bugs enjoying the warm weather at the moment. I wanted to get a photograph of these Burnet Moths last year but never managed to find one. One to tick off in the Ladybird i-Spy Nature book :)

RED SKY

Mind blowing sunrise over the channel this morning. This was about 20 minutes before the sun came up. Seeing this just makes all those failed attempts worth it, and there is a lot more behind this project that never made it.

LIHOU CAUSEWAY
140.365
Low tide at 4.0m barely exposed the causeway but gave the opportunity to get a bit creative with the rocks and shallow pools. There was some atmospheric refraction just before the sun went down but the colours of the sunset was stunning.

Gutted I ignored my alarm this morning, looked like it would have been a stunning sunrise. This was about 07:45, just after the rain.

One of the best things about living in the English Channel is the ever changing weather patterns, but looks can be deceiving! Still waiting for this heatwave...
