'Spring Haze' - the view south from Beinn-y-Phott toward Carraghan and the hazy rolling hills beyond. South Barrule in the far distance. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature
'North Easter' - the cold and windy view toward North Barrule on Good Friday evening. One of this long weekend's calmer days....albeit still an effort to stand up as the wind crosses the hill tops. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature
'Off into the sunset' - I've not taken much of late, a combination of poor weather and laziness. Another shot from several days ago. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature
'Halcyon Days' - hard to believe that only a few days ago we were enjoying calm and warm weather. #IsleofManLandscapes #IsleofMan #ManxNature
Scallop shell in the wash of the incoming wave. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature
'Morning Therapy' - there's something therapeutic about taking in the first light of the day as the sun appears over the horizon. Aptly taken on Sunday. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature
'Through the haze' - silhouetted trees against the hazy backdrop of Slieau Ruy. #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature #IsleofMan #SlieauRuy
'The Sinking Sun' - The hazy setting sun. A nice way to end today. Topped by a couple of dolphins that passed by, heading North, not long after taking this shot. #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature #IsleofMan
'A walk in the woods' - evening sunlight in the forest framed by the tree trunks. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature
'King of the Forest' - Scots Pine in a prime spot to catch some rays. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature #scotspine
'In the Woods' - an afternoon of clear skies. So, a good time to go find some highlights in the darkness of the woodland. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature
'Sphagnum Moss' - the mossy mounds at Mullagh Ouyr catch the first glimpses of morning sunlight through the cloud as the mist atop of Snaefell and Clagh Ouyr starts to clear. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature
'Mullagh Ouyr' - a cold start to today atop of Mullagh Ouyr. But nice to get out early and taken in what might be the last snow of this Winter? #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature
'Under Clearing Skies' - one of my favourite places on the Island. Hundreds of shots taken from here over the years. Hard to resist a few more. The stone barn above Sulby Reservoir in the evening sun as the cloud clears. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature
'Granites' - a search for some colour on another wet and grey Sunday. Granite boulders in the backwash. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature
'Through Yonder Beech Trees' - Sunlight breaking through the magnificent beech trees at Tholt-y-Will Glen. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature
'Tree Lights' - it was nice to see some rare sunlight at the weekend. Lovely soft light catching the trees. One that has more impact in its original several feet wide version. #IsleofManLandscapes #IsleofMan #ManxNature
'Time' - the daily grind. The river slowly cutting its way through the bedrock. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature
'Come together' - a spot I've taken shots from countless times over the past 20+ years!, but normally in Autumn. The valley side waterfall converges with the Sulby river. #IsleofManLandscapes #IsleofMan #ManxNature
On Edge' - Poyll Breinn, Bay ny Carrickey and the fast moving tide in the late afternoon sunlight. Some great ledges along this bit of coastline. Tide, waves and light combining. #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature #IsleofMan
'In them thar hills' - the search for golden light in the Corrany Valley. The wait, and hike, rewarded when the light breaks through to catch both the foreground grasses and the North Laxey lead mine building. #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature #IsleofMan
'Captain Kewley's' - the remnants of the Captain's House at Snaefell Mines, along with the little outhouse. #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature #IsleofMan #SnaefellMines
'Cool Runnings'. A Friday wander at Laxey Glen in the snow and a cool paddle in the Laxey River. Snaefell 'Snow Mountain' in the background living up to its name. #IsleofManLandscapes #IsleofMan #ManxNature
'The Carrick' - the submerged rock at Bay ny Carrickey with it's hazard warning tower. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature
'Talus' - nothing new, but hard to resist a shot when passing by Inneen Vooar on the way down Dhoon Glen. An endless supply with the storm increase and the path maintenance teams discarding fallen trees and branches into the river! Tholt-y-Will the same☹️. #ManxNature #IsleofMan
'Rock of Ages' - rock strata at Dhoon. Not quite in the league of Antelope Canyon, Arizona, but still as fascinating to look at. #IsleofMan #ManxNature #IsleofManLandscapes
The old cafe, now a shelter, on the cliff top above the spectacular Chasms as the sun breaks through this afternoon. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature
'Delicate' - The delicate branches of a Silver Birch tree against the grey afternoon sky as they catch the hazy sunlight. #IsleofManLandscapes #IsleofMan #ManxNature
Ballakilmartin as the snow comes down. Not many photos so far this year as, like many others, I've been full of a cold. Clearing now. So, hopefully a chance for a wander later before the washed out Sunday. #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature #IsleofMan
'South Facing' the stone wall and stile catching the setting Winter sunlight. A shot taken a number of times, but always worth another. From this afternoon's little wander. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature
