    The rainbow was taken on our way to the shop. The second image on the way home 😊

  4. The Royal Yacht Squadron in Cowes taken on Sunday after a downpour.

    Not a venue that the likes of me would ever be allowed in. It's frequented by royalty and their pals during Cowes Week.

  5. #Seaview on the #IsleofWight taken yesterday afternoon.

    The light was constantly changing and my job was to bag the bench opposite this viewpoint so my husband could photograph it when the light was right.

    Easiest task in the world - I could have sat there for hours as he walked about looking for other compsitions 😄 #LandscapePhotography #AvailableLightPhotography

  6. We were thrilled when #EnglishHeritage who care for #CarisbrookeCastle asked us to supply them with a browser full of my husband's photography.

    We delivered it today to their museum shop, ready for the busy bank holiday weekend.

  7. First event of the summer is as set up as we can be ready for business tomorrow and Sunday.

    Obviously the sea mist rolls in and grey cloud arrives whilst we're there, after a week long heatwave.

    It's sunny away from this southern end of the #IsleofWight though! #ChaleShow #AvailableLightPhotography

  8. We experienced an incredible sunset a couple of evenings ago.

    This was taken at #ColwellBay on the #IsleofWight which has seen a bit of a rejuvenation of late. Beach huts have been brightly painted and the Hut restaurant has become the place to be.

  9. The #RedArrows an hour or so ago. Taken from up on the Downs near Ryde on the #IsleofWight

    They were spectacular, the grey weather less so!

  10. Moonrise last night over #BembridgeLifeboatStation on the #IsleofWight

    This was taken with a #Telephoto lens at a distance of well over a mile away from the station.

    Light conditions were not ideal as it was so dark, but the weather was beautifully clear and calm. It was the perfect opportuny for my husband to try out the new lens which arrived this week 😄 #Moon #Photography #AvailableLightPhotography

  11. Where I live! Photographed last night.
    What a day at the shop, we haven't stopped. So grateful for all the love for the Aurora photos, they were flying out today.
    One very thankful #SmallBusiness owner.

  12. Making the most of the window of weather. Not pictured: fouling the prop with a submerged mooring line which I had to cut loose and still thawing out from. #rib #sup #standuppaddleboard #isleofwight #solent #boating #sea
