A sunrise photo of St Anne’s Cathedral Belfast on a foggy morning. The sun is rising above the fog and above the cathedral the spire is reaching in to the blue sky.

An atmospheric start to the day in Belfast.

Three porcelain fungi lit from beneath highlighting the veins of the cap.

Porcelain fungi in the evening light.

A cheerful, and unexpected, sight in the garden this morning. We neglected these bulbs and left them to over winter in their pots.

Beautiful colours on Belfast Lough this evening.

After many days of zero hours sunshine, in Belfast, it is great to see some clear skies.

Black and white photograph of the River Lagan in Belfast at the Lagan Weir. The footbridge is in the foreground and visible in the distance is the Obel Tower and Cutsoms House an ornate 19th century building.

A ‘dreich’ morning in Belfast and over a week of zero hours recorded sunlight.

Having not tied a fly in quite some time it was nice to return to the vice this evening to tie a couple of fly brooches for a friend.

I like this a lot.

“…AI as an excuse, one that allows those with power to operate at a distance from those whom power touches”.

Sunrise reflecting off the water in Victoria Park, with St Marks Church spire in the distance.

A fine sunrise on the commute to work this morning in Belfast.

A fine sunrise over Belfast City Centre and the first hint that the shortest, and darkest, days are behind us.

My first post on BlueSky and it is the aftermath of Storm Éowyn in Redburn, Holywood. Some of these beech trees date back to the time when the Dunville Whiskey family lived here. Sad to walk amongst them this morning.
