The sky is a deep mauve-grey, already slightly lighter behind the castle. But the birds are singing bravely in the dark and I remember waiting for a taxi outside Durham station in the early hours of the morning, feeling vulnerable and alone, until the birds all burst into song

Visually impaired version! A misty, pearl-grey morning, the sky merging into the hills and mountains. There is a little gentle twittering from the hedges and the domed shape of the pomegranate has turned a bright yellow, the prelude to the bare branches of winter

Visually impaired version! A shining, pale blue-grey morning sky with only the faintest trace of a rose-gold blush behind the castle and one almost vertical silver streak from a plane, like a narrow searchlight. #trishaashley #morning #trishaworld #blind #visualimpairment

Visually impaired version! The early dark mauve-grey sky has slowly lightened to a lilac shade, with a soft, grainy look about it, like a pointillist painting. A couple of lazy seagulls are still slip-sliding about on the roof. #trishaashley #morning #trishaworld #blind #visualimpairment

The garden was still wrapped in the darkness of the night when I went out, the white summer house looming ghost-like among the bushes and the last, parting hoot of a distant owl. It will be hours before the slug-a-bed rooks start to cough and clatter their way into a new day

Visually impaired version! A chill, silent morning, the valley darker than the sky and only warmed by a few amber lights, and I remember long ago, sitting by a window in the early hours feeding my baby and feeling like the only person awake in the whole world

Visually impaired version! A misty, blue-grey morning, the sky merging seamlessly into the land and just one solitary whirling seagull to scream about the starting of the day. #trishaashley #morning #trishaworld #blind #visualimpairment

Visually impaired version! There was a bright moon riding high in the sky last night, but this morning all is a dense, dark dove grey with just a hint of dawn in the form of paler patches behind the castle, which seemed to be pushing upwards like strange mushrooms

Visually impaired version! In the early hours, although I couldn't see the moon through the dense cloud, the whole sky was a strangely light marbled grey, illuminated from above. #trishaashley #morning #trishaworld #blind #visualimpairment

Visually impaired version! A dark, pinkish-pewter grey sky, the black hedges starred with pinpricks of light from the street lamps and the only sound the very distant hoot of an owl. #trishaashley #morning #trishaworld #blind #visualimpairment

Visually impaired version! Last night the very bright, high moon silvered the dapled ceiling of clouds below it. This morning the sky is still a steely blue-grey, with a great, low bank of lavender clouds, like a new mountain range. #trishaashley #morning #trishaworld #blind #visualimpairment
