With a few Buddleia trees flowering in the garden and teeming with Bees, I had to get close-up with a special macro lens to capture the beautiful detail in their wings and bodies.

Way more wicked than a Pink limo !

Steven and Kayleigh are engaged and we got some great weather. Stevens brother, sister, mum and dad also joined-in. As did the family pooch Rio who didn’t like getting his picture taken, perhaps because the deaf Photographer kept calling him Leo !

One little boy

At seven weeks of life - so many relaxed and happy smiles.

Best wishes to the Hutchinsons with Matthew and Mara. A special day at St Mungos and Dunmar House.

A fantastic day last month for Carrie and John's Wedding at Dollar Parish Church.

In spite of the torrential rain it was a very happy day and the Speeches warmed everyone up nicely !
Many thanks for an enjoyable day and the best of luck to the both of you in the future.

When the weather turns interesting, you just get busy....

If you like these drop me a line in the comments below.

Since the new sculpture from Andy is installed at Muirside roundabout, time to grab a few shots of this magnificent piece. 'He' shares many aspects of River Spirit such as steel galvanised construction, tree-like branch hands, but this time the theme is different. This is not a static figurine around which we travel, but a dynamic figure seemingly to grow from the grass, with arms outstretched to the sky. Nice touches are the swallow shapes adding to the sense of movement and air.

For someone who never thought twice about Public Art, these two figures have really caught my camera eye. Enjoy the images and feel free to add comments.

Sore heads abound.
