Stormfront blowing in off the North Sea
This is the view looking westward from the front doorstep as the sunset is swallowed up

A blackthorn twig with a good covering of lichen and it's buds just about to pop
Sunset over the fishing pond, with willows and chimney pots on the skyline
Out and about for the longest walk in a while, thanks to improved weather and the doggo being a bit bigger.
Signs of spring in a buckthorn bursting with potential, and a tiny glimpse of the sun just as we turned for home #my400

Colour photo of fields covered in morning dew. A post and wire fenceline crosses the foreground. Winter trees line the unseen small river at the bottom of the valley. Haze softens the fields and the hill beyond. The sun is rendered as a fuzzy white orb on the left, just above the horizon. A clear sky fades from blue to a Farrow & Ball grey; an idiosyncrasy of the phone camera. Clouds swipe lines, like a child's chalk marks on paper.
Still morning. (Slightly later.) #my400

Photo of the back garden and hill beyond, just before sunrise. Garden is in shade, ponds reflecting the pale sky, and the trees are still in their winter attire. A light mist hangs over the valley beyond, casting the hill in pastel, with a pale golden outline. Thin pale orange clouds above peter out to a clear dilute blue.
Morning. #my400

Beach at low tide on a sunny day. Calm sea in the distance with a large rock on the horizon to the left. Cliffs on the far left. Stream in the foreground winds its way towards the sea. Back of an old yellow Labrador on the edge of the stream in the mid ground.
On this morning's walk the sea was like a millpond #My400

Waves crashing through a breakwater in a harbour. Walls and fences to the left, cliffs on the right in the background. Old yellow Labrador dog bottom right. Subdued wintry colours in flat light.
On this morning walk we went to the little beach. There was quite a swell! My dear old boy photo bombed but I'm grateful for every minute we have together #My400

Good morning. Behold… it’s not raining! I’ll take that. Forecast not to rain till late afternoon. Time to wash the Dog blankets, get them hanging out in that fresh air.

Bare-limbed beech and hawthorn grown as a tall hedge are silhouetted against a bright blue winter sky with a bright sun shining The open fields are visible beyond the hedge and a close observer will be able to see the green hummock of the Lincolnshire Wolds, about three miles away across the Humber Estuary.
The garden's a tip, the windows need cleaning, I can't get out of the back door because all the cardboard boxes from Xmas and Young'un's 18th need taking to the tip, and it's probably going to pee down again tomorrow....
But look at this sky ☺️☺️☺️ #my400

Vehicle tracks lead to a gate between to stands of trees. The sun is in a blue sky with just a few whisps of cloud. Lens flare provides a stripe of pink at the top left, a green aperture blob bottom right, with a small rainbow stripe and green dot just above.
An old iron sided bridge, with a concrete base leads to grassy fields beyond, and a hill capped with snow below a blue sky with light cloud streaks. Purple/pink blobs fan out above the sun like petals of a child's drawing of a flower, with hints of green in the foreground.
Lens flare on a sunny dog walk. #my400

View across wintery fields, a post and wire fence cross the grassy field in the foreground, dry stone walls and treelines behind. Beyond, the hill is topped with snow, sky is cloudy and threatens more snow.
Out the back. #my400

On the way out this morning
Sunshine today; a southerly wind has blown away the weekend's nasty roke.
Saw a kestrel and a sparrowhawk along the hedgerow (both male); the kestrel tilted over the roof of the car and skimmed into the open field, sparrowhawk glared from the top of a hawthorn #my400

A valiant attempt by the sun to break through the clouds this morning, but I think that's the most we're going to see for today.
Very January 🫤 #my400

From Tuesday morning - a big old trailer of muck given a glorious halo by the combination of bright winter sunshine and the huge clouds of steam it was generating 😁😁😁

A photo of a cold, wet gate, with churned up tracks leading away into the distance, small trees either side.
It's a bit chill out. #my400

A red-gold sun rises behind wintery trees. The sky is gold and pink at the horizon, shading up to very pale blue
Yesterday's slightly ominous sunrise, heralding two solid days of rain.
Heigh-ho for waterproofs and wellies...

Field with sheep, with the wall curving around the copse of deciduous trees. A couple of trees on the horizon, with blue sky above and just a couple of thin clouds.
Backlit winter trees beside the path,leading to the gate to another sheep field. Mainly blue skies again.
The view across the estate back to the village. A copse surrounds the duck pond,and another which shelters pheasant. A line of old oaks follows an old way on the left their shadows long across the field. The hills of the trough beyond are topped with light cloud, beneath more blue sky.
The field by the bridge, with its square bield. More sheep. More blue sky and low sun pushing through incoming white clouds.
It's not a bad wee wander with the hounds. #my400

The view from the front drive and our upstairs front window at sunset
I grew up on the North Yorkshire Moors and I miss the hills but by gum we get some good skies out here!

Sunrise over the fields around 7.35 - a table-flat, lowlying landscape with trees and pylons silhouetted in the distance. The sky shades from flame yellow along the horizon up through deep pink to blue and purple at the top of the frame
About an hour later at the station The sun is shining golden, filtered by the cloud, behind a stand of trees along the edge of the railway line The bridge between the two platforms is steely blue
The walk home at around 8.45 The sky is now soft lemon, fading up to grey and white The grass beside the footpath and around the dyke is startlingly green. An oak, a young ash and the start of a hawthorn hedge shade the footpath on the left. Their branches make an interlaced pattern across the sky.
Had to get up at bird fart this morning to take the van to the garage, walk from garage to station (1 mile) walk from station to home (another mile), pick up the little car and go for the top up shopping
Already done 6,700 steps.
Absolutely buggered 😁
At least it didn't rain! #my400
