It's another lovely morning here in Edinburgh, cold and bright, the setts of the New Town still shiny with last night's rain.

A beautiful Welsh daffodil caught in the sunlight in Cardiff, South Wales, UK.

Beautiful Pink Bergenia from yesterday's walk, cascading over a high garden wall for all to enjoy. Cardiff, South Wales, UK.

Wide view across Lough Foyle at low tide, with rippled sand patterns in the foreground leading toward shallow pools and narrow channels of water. Small grassy islets and sandbanks break up the shoreline, while distant hills sit low on the horizon beneath a dramatic sky. Thick, layered clouds sweep across the frame, opening to a deep blue patch at the centre, creating a moody, windswept atmosphere over the calm estuary.

Good morning. Rob’s hosting BOTD today. Keen to the see the themes as we don’t tell each other in advance as we both enjoy taking part too. For #TidesOutTuesday #photography #scape #Ireland #EastCoastKin

In the undercroft to the monks refectory, Dunfermline Abbey.

Morning all. Almost autumnal vibes - Almost but not quite. With temperatures rising to around 30C again by weekend, we’re not quite done with summer yet! Enjoy the Day🌞

I love the way afternoon light seems to make the reed heads glow, but capturing that on photo? I keep trying ... but somehow no #photograph quite matches reality! This is yesterday's attempt at the wonderful @RSPBConwy #NaturePhotography

There's lovely! It's raining on St.David's Day! Have a good one, everyone. Best wishes from Cardiff, South Wales, UK. 😃👍

Follow your urge to go outside if you can.

A long beach stretching away below dark cliffs - the sun coming in from top right making the sea very shiny - two teeny weeny figures walking over their reflections give a sense of scale

An expressive watercolour painting of a chiffchaff

This is a chiffchaff. While small numbers overwinter here in the UK, hearing their song ‘chiff chaff chiff chaff’ for me really signals the start of Spring, I know I’ll be hearing one any day 🥰

I think the #seaside must be #dog heaven. Never have I seen so many happy puppers. This little chap was practically dragging his owner along the sand! #Noir #photooftheday #photographer

A vertical, atmospheric photograph of a solitary male roe deer, a buck with small antlers, standing proudly in a field of tall green and golden grass. The entire scene is bathed in warm, golden backlighting from the evening sun, which casts a luminous glow through the softly blurred forest background (bokeh). The light creates a beautiful rim-light around the deer’s silhouette, highlighting its warm-toned coat. The buck stands in sharp focus, looking back over its left shoulder with an alert expression against the dreamy, warmly colored background.

Found this gem from last summer. It definitely deserved a second round on the feed. 😄

Close-up portrait of a European goldfinch perched on a leafy branch against a dark, blurred background. The bird faces right, showing its vivid red face mask bordered by black and white markings, warm buff-brown body, and a bright yellow wing stripe edged with black. Fine feather detail is sharply visible, and the small green leaves beneath its feet add a fresh splash of colour.

Good morning. Sorry not around as much during this weekend. Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #PrimaryColours any bird with a primary colour in their plumage. The alt is #Songbirds good luck!

The small and beautiful evergreen perennial, Christmas rose (Helleborus niger), seen in at Roath Park Lake, Cardiff, South Wales, UK.

With rain almost day after day, there is only one way ahead: enjoy walking and taking photos in the rain! Here's the evergreen shrub Japanese laurel (Aucuba japonica), looking fresh and bright, as though it's just stepped dripping out of the morning shower. Beautiful.

There's a lovely light from the John Lawson glass in St Pancras, Ipswich on this sunny day. Here's St Francis of Assisi...

Moment caught between reality and dream, carried on delicate wings.

The air turns into poetry
As a butterfly inks the day into dream…
