Elvet Bridge, Durham City.
Top is a painting (Louise J. Rayner) c1900, bottom is my photo from last week.
Such a beautiful city, this bridge takes you up the hill to the castle and cathedral, got to be one of my favourite places in the UK.
Great to see the nacreous clouds locally yesterday, these are hardly ever seen in the UK as very specific conditions are needed, and as one of the highest clouds in the atmosphere, it is typically referred to as 'mother-of-pearl.
Ice crystals form and refract the light rays to give vivid rainbow effects.
Just a few more weeks and we'll be hitting my favourite season 🍁🍂
I love the 'bers'
Looking forward to walking in the woods catching some more fabulous woodland scenes like this one.
Haven't seen one of these for years and years, when suddenly this cute little hedgehog wanders past.
Worrying really as he should be thinking about getting tucked up somewhere warm for the winter.
Some people say it's exhilarating, some say they are totally nuts... 🥶😳
A New Years Day dip at Queensferry, the day peaked at 2° 😲 guessing the water wasn't any warmer 😄
