You are looking down into a gorge from above. A dark blue, flowing stream winds its way through the snow-covered rocks at the bottom of the gorge. Several coniferous trees, also covered in snow, line the slopes. In the upper part of the picture, on the opposite slope, you can see a few houses with snow-covered roofs. Behind them rise more, higher mountains.

A beautiful gilly Russet Toughshank shining in the filtered forest light. Two Common Bonnets on the forest floor lit up by a shaft of light. The one at the front has been nibbled on a little and looks to have grown and pushed the other over.

Earl Grey's Monument with Eldon Square in the right background, Newcastle upon Tyne (October 2025)
See Alt text for more
#newcastle #architecture #graingertown #heritage #earlgrey #classicmono #photography #eastcoastkin
This black and white image shows Grey's Monument towering over the other buildings and people at the head of Grainger Street and Grey Street on a bright but cloudy October day in Newcastle upon Tyne, England. Grey's Monument is a Grade I listed stone monument built in 1838 to honour Charles Grey, 2nd Earl Grey, who served as Prime Minister and passed the Great Reform Act of 1832. It has a total height of 133 ft (41 m). It was funded via public subscription and consists of a statue of Earl Grey on a pedestal standing on top of a Roman Doric column. The column was designed by local architect, Benjamin Green, and the statue was created by the sculptor, Edward Hodges Baily.

Morning All !

@alan678.bsky.social has set the #BirdOfTheDay theme today and it is #OnTheEdge , any bird at the edge of a body of water. The alternative is #pigeons

Puffin, Lunga, #Mull, #Scotland. May 2025

#Birds #Seabirds #Photography #EastCoastKin
Shot looking through grass a Puffin stands on the edge of a cliff, behind it the blue waters of the North Atlantic form a back drop. The bird is in profile showing it's colourful beak and eye markings... it's facial expression suggests it is considering it's life choices and may very well 'be on the edge'...

Here's three Mallards on the wooden jetty at Derwent Water, Keswick with Skiddaw in the background (March 2023)
#birds #ukwildlife #nature #lakedistrict #mountains #photography #eastcoastkin
A Lakeland scene on a cloudy March day at Derwent Water, Keswick. In the foreground is the end of a wooden jetty with two wooden poles on either side of it. Two male Mallard ducks and one female Mallard are standing near the edge of the jetty close to the lake. The steel grey lake is quite calm with only some light ripples in the water. In the background are two traditional wooden launch boats at their moorings. Behind this with a light dusting of snow on it, framed by the wooden jetty posts is the prominent shape of Skiddaw mountain one of the Northern Fells.

Good afternoon. The #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #OnTheEdge , any bird at the edge of a body of water. The alternative is #pigeons I’ve went with a European Shag standing on a rocky outcrop at the edge of the coast. #birds #photography #EastCoastKin
A European Shag stands alert on dark, seaweed-covered rocks at the water’s edge. Sunlight highlights its brown plumage, slender hooked bill, and webbed feet. Foamy waves and soft blue water blur in the background, creating a strong contrast with the textured rocks and the bird’s sleek profile.
