Evening and morning



 Last night's Sunset..I wonder if it was Sahara dust or just the angle of the setting sun that gave the colours?


A similar shot with colour..it was a bit more orangey pink than that.


It was a really cold night and a frosty windscreen morning, with bright sun.

I went to see the Sunday car boot at Ayr Racecourse.  Rather disappointing...but I did find these two....





They will be good to use.

I couldn't find a wheel or tyre and tube for my barrow...a certain DIY store had sold out...it probably isn't the right time of year to be looking for them!!

Whatever the cause, that sunset is really beautiful. I hope you soon manage to get your tyre or tube; a woman without a wheelbarrow is a frustrated woman. Mine is in use constantly and in so many ways. I wouldn't have believed that statement two decades ago!

I always fail miserably when trying to capture the exotic colours of a particularly impressive sunset. My phone's camera is just good enough.
I like your beautiful car boot finds.

Great mugs to add to your collection. That sunset does/did look very colorful. I wonder who decided, when designing our cameras, that sunset colors should be muted down. Anyone with an artistic eye can see the difference!

Most tyre places repair wheelbarrow punctures GZ

Gwynneth, I admire your gentle marking of the days as you move on from the loss of Pirate. You have probably the most graceful spirit I have ever 'met'. Your blog has taken on all the reflective peace of a compline.

Thinking of you.

Oh for the plentiful supply of old pram wheels we used to have.

Fresca said...

Oooh, that green glaze running horizontally!!! I love that.

Sunrise, sunset—I think of the song…

Beautiful sunrise and sunset. The pottery is a great find.

The pictures of your sky at sunset are beautiful.

Nice find. They’re lovely.
Here In Australia the price of a wheel is almost as much as the price for a new wheelbarrow it’s terrible
But we hunted high and low and finally hubby found one for a decent price.

Each sunset has it's own beauty.

Fresca, a song to bring quiet tears

Sunrise, sunset...reminded me of the song from Fiddler on the Roof. x

Hello, GZ. This is my first time here but I see your name on other blogs I follow and enjoy your comments so I thought I'd pop in to say hello. I'm so glad I did. Your photos are beautiful -- what a sky! And I am a bit in awe of your garden. Marvelous pottery finds as well. As I looked down the posts I see that you, too, are a potter and, like me, into family history, doing photo sorts. It sounds like life has been sad of late and I send wishes for peace and healing. I will visit again. ~ jeanie from Marmelade Gypsy

Beautiful sunsets. Reminds me of Arizona.

What a glorious sky. And the pottery is pretty awesome too.
