Get on and Shine with Holly Honeychurch

The majesty.

A joyful late night swim for some folk. What a sky.

Where do I begin with last night’s sunset?! 😍

Rosie Posie. Sniffer extraordinaire. Super slow in her twilight years. A stubborn lil minx. I used to be able to hold her in the palm of my hand. 🤍

Blessed by clouds this weekend.

The magic of clover.

Despite the chaos in my life at the moment, I’m glad I can still see the calm.

The windsurfer was pleased with this shot. Perfect timing as he was coming out the water quite near to me. It’s not often that I get to share my sea shots with my ‘subjects’ as they’re usually well out and truly out on the water, doing what they love.

Blissful sight tonight here in Scotland on the west coast.

Had to take an emergency trip to Scotland and now I’m looking after this lil pupper. She’s a strong will, this one.

Pizza in the evening sun. Yum.

Go on, scoop him!

Diggers and workmen on the beach in front of a calm sea

Joyful pony ride on the beach. Such a beautiful sight. Loving that sparkly sea.

Takes driving to work to a whole new level.

As a child at the seaside I’d spend ages touching the frothy waves as they broke on the shore. I’d watch them sizzle and fizz. I’d put my face in the foam and generally loll about in the shallow waves watching bubbles. I still love plunging the water now and feeling bubbles tickle my face. Some things never change. My fascination with bubbles is one of them.

I explored more of the Lancashire and Cumbrian coast recently. This is Arnside with an eager, low flying Tern desiring my ice-cream.

Peaceful vibes. Come bathe in a sanctuary of springtime loveliness. Flowers by Sergey, with thanks.

When you meet your pal Bessie down the beach huts, it’s always a good day.

Tried a harp out yesterday. It felt very large after my little harp. 40 strings vs 25. I needed binoculars to see the bass notes. 😁

Herb garden is coming along nicely. Amazing what can grow in such a shallow bed. And that coriander is a beast.

I love grasses swaying in the breeze.

A relaxing, soothing, magical listen. The sounds are serene, ethereal, celestial and otherworldly. A whimsical power dances with lapping waves; playing, soaring, floating. Come dive and swim with this special sound and rest for a while in its gentleness. Mystical image by Artem Sapegin with thanks.

Huge clouds this evening.

Epic white clouds against a blue sky. Like a painting.
