Roses at Bodnant

Summer has arrived and with it, all the Roses at Bodnant Garden were really coming into flower.

Clouds over Coniston

Beautiful clouds patterns over Coniston with the Langdales in the background.

Loch Morlich in May

The Cairngorms in May and we discovered a sandy beach on Loch Morlich and watched Ospreys over Lochindorb. There is always something new to discover around Aviemore.

Beautiful Bodnant

The first week of May and the first "Wag Wednesday" of 2017. The sun was shining and these tulips looked stunning.

Llandudno Pier

The present pier, built for the Llandudno Pier Company by Walter Macfarlane of Glasgow using iron castings from the Glasgow Elmbank foundry, was opened to the public on 1 August 1877. 

A British Tourist Authority report in 1975 said of it: '.... It zooms out of the sea.... in a spectacular Indian Gothic style rather like a Maharajah's palace floating on a lake. Cast iron, brackets of iron lacework, an outstandingly pretty balustrade like an enlarged fish net, ogee roofs curling away to the sky, all add up to a totally pleasurable experience.'

Winter at Bodnant

We had a lovely sunny walk around Bodnant Garden this week. I was really impressed with all the flowers that were out already out in the garden and I thought the winter garden looked wonderful.
