Atmospheric! Rain and clouds clearing over Lanjarón.

Some quiet corners of some of our traditional Alpujarra villages. The roofs are built with traditional materials and some date back to the times of occupation by the Moors. Wonderful places to visit where time seems to have stood still

Beinn Dòrain & Beinn an Dòthaidh from Bridge of Orchy. Strange conditions: snow thicker than expected but turning quickly to slippery slush; temperature inversion but in the clag. Munro no. 45 and 46 for me.

Nature’s texture, my friends.

(two birds with one stone, heh)

I've posted this photo before, at the tail end of last year but as it's #InternationalDarkSkyWeek and #StandingStoneSunday I thought I'd share it again!

This is the Longstone on the #IsleofWight with #CometNeowise visible in the sky. The Island is applying to become a Dark Skies Park and attracts many photographers to capture the views here.

My husband took the shot, I light painted the Longstone with a small torch. If I remember I'll post some more night sky photos over the week.

Today, with no great expectations, we went in search of a thin ribbon of snow that would lead to the summit of Caballo 3009m. Sad to say, that did not exist. After 20 years of enjoying superb winters here, this winter is definitely the worst. In earlier years I have skied this slope in mid-May, but today end of March 2023, it's like June. Anyway, any day out on the hills is good & this area of the Sierra Nevada is so wild & unspoiled.
