Migratory Whooper Swans sharing a small hole in the ice on Ballygawley Lough, Sligo. Must feel just like home in Iceland. I’ve never seen this lake as solidly frozen before. #chilly

Mornin’

I do love the crisp tang on the sunrise air coming up to the solstice. Feels like change and new starts.

The first blush of a winter dawn. A sliver of orange kisses the dark horizon, immediately followed by a velvet blue that fades back to black in the early morning sky.

Mornin’
A crescent moon hangs over a clear predawn horizon. The sky blends from orange to blue to dark over distant hills.

11 years ago today on my first and so far only trip to NYC. MOMA and the Guggenheim on one day. Some day…
Van Gogh’s Starry night hanging in MOMA NYC. It appears as though the gallery is empty, even though in reality it was quite busy, I was lucky to catch it at the right moment. The characteristic helical gallery of the Guggenheim in NYC. Shot from one of the upper levels, there are different groups of people walking, chatting, just being on the lower levels of the spiral. Magical place.

Mornin’ all. It’s a crisp one out there this morning. But I love the wintry tang on the air.

Dawn | Sligo
A panoramic view of the horizon in the early dawn, Sligo, Ireland. There is a sliver of orange above distant hills which melts into blue and then to black.

The last photo I posted in the other place, from a crisp November morning a couple of years ago. Lough Gill, Sligo #sligowhoknew
The rosy glow of sunrise mirrored in a flat calm lake. There is a forested mountain also reflected on the horizon

So I need a first post here. This is Floof (Mr Floofy Potato esq). Three years ago, he was a scrawny, diarrhoeic runt not far from dead at work on Christmas Day. Took him home because I felt sorry for him. Now he handsome and awesome.
