Let's be friends

Deriving a strange pleasure from seeing the tenacious little plants artfully growing beside the slowly eroding carved stone... . . And then it occurred to me, this single picture contains all the elements that make my heart sing - medieval art, romantic ruins, the textures of weathered stone and the sheer magic of mother nature...x . . #medievalstyle #medievalruin #carvedstone #lanercostpriory #medievalchurch #medievalart #mothernature #amomentofwonder #englishchurch #ancient #mundanemagic #mymagicalplace
A huge thank you to everyone for your lovely birthday wishes yesterday, so very kind of you. . . . Annoyingly, less than twenty four hours later, I've been stricken with the nasty-chesty-lurgy-thing, v.2, new and improved...so am now tucked up in bed, trying to avoid spreading it to the rest of the family. (Morning walk delegated to the daughters until I'm recovered)....this from yesterday at the top of the field. . .

It's late, I know, but it's my birthday and I've had a lovely day, out with my girlies this afternoon, ringing this evening...and it began with a circular walk this morning, as the sheep have now left the field...x . . At the Thinking Gate, thinking how extraordinarily lucky I am.

Look who I met today...I don't know her name, but I'm assuming she's a queen...slightly the worse for wear, but beautiful nevertheless... . . At the church of St. Mary the Virgin, Haynes, Bedfordshire. Where I waited to be rescued by the OH after getting a puncture on the bike...(what an exciting time we have...)x. . . #churchdoorway #churchcrawling #stonecarving #queenshead #churcharchitecture #bedfordshire #mybritainwithlove #capturingbritain_churches #historybuff #enigma #aquietplace #britains_talent #villagelife #visitbritain #littlestoryofmylife
I'm mind-blown...another splendidly gorgeous morning, followed by a trip to London to see the Anglo Saxons exhibition at the British Library. What a wonderful experience, I could have spent days in there, and oh how much I wanted to turn the pages on many of the books displayed...x (didn't, obviously...). . . #historybuff #countryside #morninglight #awakethesoul #earlylight #earthenergy #branches #sunshineandshadows #sunlightandshadows #dailyritual #walkingmeditation #morningdogwalk #sunrays #capturing_britain #capturethelight
Oooh, lovely light this morning...walking into the sunshine, with a mist rising from the thawing frost, birds singing...sighs...x . . #mymagicalmorning #mysterious #mistymorning #countrysidelovers #dailyritual #morninglight #earlylight #hedgerow #februarymorning #aseasonalyear #lane #sunlightandshadows #branches #amomentofwonder #gentlemorning #tranquility #peacefulmoments
Hooray! Spring has properly sprung in the lane...the one and only clump of snowdrops along the whole length of the lane has flowered...and it's looking healthier than last year, even though it's flowered 10 days later. . . #snowdrops #springiscoming #spreadnaturelove #hedgerow #englishcountryside #aseasonalyear #embracingtheseasons #springisintheair #noticingnature #nature_magic #naturenotes #amomentofcalm #gentlemorning #peacefulmoments #smallbeauties
The delicate branching pattern creating shadow tracery in the lane...or perhaps I'm just a stained glass junkie, seeing it everywhere I look...x . . #tracery #branches #sunlightandshadows #forgeyourownpath #countrysidelovers #countryliving #ruralgallery #mymagicalmorning #momentsofcalm #artistsoninstagram #creativeinthecountryside #magicalmoments #morninglight #inspiredbynature #beautyinnature #dailyritual
