I was kind of amazed that these trees still don't have leaves on them. I've no idea why, though.

Couldn't get this one to turn out quite right, no matter what I did.

Through a blue filter to bring out the texture.

A bent and twisted tree (I don't know what species, alas) on back road between Galgate and Caton.

This was one of those lucky spur of the moment captures, where there happened to be a convenient spot to stop the car. It took me twelve shots to get the lighting more-or-less right (it's still not perfect).

And next to yesterday's cherry blossom, we have pear blossom. And I mean next to as in "right next to," because the two trees, sakura and pear, are intertwined with each other, sharing a living space in the centre of the old orchard that more-or-less acts as our garden, menagerie and wildlife reserve.

The Cherry Blossoms are blooming in our garden again, always a welcome sight.

Soon they'll start showering the car with pink-petal snow and we shall curse as they clog up the windscreen wipers and make it difficult to get out of the drive without hitting the wall.

But for now, they are a sign of summer.

He has written one novel, which is in the process of composting, and is working remembering how to write before embarking on a second. In the meantime, he photographs things, since it's easier not to have to make the world up in his head all of the time.
