Moon with earthshine, without/with Jupiter
21st April 2026

I love it when the moon is like this and you can see the bit of the moon you can't see (if you see what I mean).

You can't get directly onto the Monsal Trail from this tunnel at the end on Mesne Lane, Bakewell.

Thanks. This one must have been stuck on the car! I only spotted it when we stopped. I've seen quite a few already this year and will look out for more. :)

Scene-stealing, almost. We love the episodes he's in. :)

Billy Gibbons played the dad of one of the Bones team (Angela). He was quite a character. :)

Riber blossom
18th April 2026

Having taken quite a few blossom photos recently, I thought that I'd try to see whether I could get a drone photo of some... without inadvertently flying into a tree!

Super-cute ducklings
17th April 2026

I counted 15 ducklings swimming around on the boating lake today, one group of seven and another group of eight.

Blossom reflections
15th April 2026

The actual picture in the frame is of a canal boat pootling along a tree-lined canal. The reflection of the blossom was so strong that it was almost impossible to see the 'real' picture.

Blue skies and the crooked spire

Bonus points for spotting the unusual 'family' in the first photo (which I had not noticed when I took the photo).

Huge drone or tiny plane?

This is a phone photo taken of my drone and passing plane while the drone was taking photos of the sunrays in the previous post.

Sunrays from the skies
11th April 2026

The low-in-the-sky early evening sunlight combined with the heavy bursts of rain this afternoon make the roads look almost like rivers.

Ah, yes I see. It's meant to read 'Sunrays', sorry about that. :)

Sorry about that. Clouds too impressive _not_ to take a photo of. :)
