Taking a Break I’m just back from a wonderful trip to the Canary Islands and I feel like I’m in need of continuing my break from screens and social media for a bit. I’ll catch up with you all and your fabulous photos and posts soon. Go well, my friends 🤗🥰 #Scape #EastCoastKin #TakingABreak

A tranquil coastal sunset scene with the sea stretching into the distance. The sky is painted in soft gradients of pastel pink, orange, and purple, with wispy clouds catching the last light. In the foreground, several tall palm trees stand in silhouette, their fronds gently fanned out. To the right, a dark, rugged headland curves into the water, and below it, faint outlines of buildings and terraces suggest a seaside resort.

Flying Towards the Sunshine From my recent flight from the UK to the Canary Islands. #BlueSkyMonday #PhotographersOfBlueSky #EastCoastKin

Bright sunlight bursts into the frame from the upper left, sending long rays across a deep blue sky above a vast blanket of white clouds seen from an airplane window. Below, scattered cotton-like clouds cast soft shadows on the blue ocean, where patches of sunlight shimmer on the water’s surface. Lens flares sparkle across the sky, emphasising the dazzling brightness and the immense, open view above the cloud tops. ☀️✈️

Corridor of Light Puerto Calero, Lanzarote I flew in yesterday and was hoping to get this shot as I’d done something similar here before. Thankfully it worked. #AlphabetChallenge #WeekIforInteriors #AlphabetTechPhoto #LightAndShadow #StunDay #ClassicMono #PhotographersOfBlueSky #EastCoastKin

A dramatic, high-contrast black and white photograph of a long hotel corridor in Lanzarote. On the left, a repetitive line of tall glass doors allows bright sunlight to stream in, casting a series of sharp, parallel horizontal shadows across the dark, tiled floor. The floor tiles are laid in a diamond pattern, and the perspective of the narrow hallway leads the eye toward a dark, shadowed area at the far end. The interplay of light and deep shadow creates a striking, rhythmic geometric effect throughout the interior.

The Colosseum Ancient stones remember the roar, Of crowds that filled this ground before Now quiet arches face the sky, While centuries wander slowly by. #AlphabetChallenge #WeekIforInteriors #StunDay #ImageAndVerse #ColorADay #OrangeSun #PhotographersOfBlueSky #EastCoastKin

Interior view of the Colosseum, showing the vast oval arena and exposed underground hypogeum where gladiators and animals were once kept. Tiered stone arches and weathered walls rise in layers around the amphitheatre, while visitors walk along the upper galleries. The ancient structure glows warm gold beneath a bright blue sky streaked with soft clouds, highlighting the immense scale of Rome’s most famous Roman amphitheatre.

Blooming Marvellous! I love fresh flowers around the house. These were in my bedroom. #AlphabetChallenge #WeekIforInteriors #ColorADay #GreenSat #BloomScrolling #PhotographersOfBlueSky #EastCoastKin

A vibrant, sun-drenched interior view of a bunch of pink and deep purple tulips in a dark jug sitting on a white windowsill. The bright sunlight streams through the glass, making the petals look almost translucent and highlighting the lush green leaves. In the background, a blurred garden with a large tree and a clear blue sky is visible through the window panes.

Stay Hydrated! #BlueSkyArtShow #Flowing #ClassicMono #PhotographersOfBlueSky #EastCoastKin

A high contrast black and white close-up of water being poured into the narrow neck of a glass bottle against a dark background. The stream forms a smooth ribbon as it hits the rim, with tiny bubbles and droplets visible inside the bottle, highlighted by bright reflections.

The Cascade A man-made waterfall built in 1789 at Virginia Water, Windsor Great Park Today’s #BlueSkyArtShow theme is #Flowing #ColorADay #GreenSat #PhotographersOfBlueSky #EastCoastKin

The stone cascade at Virginia Water Cascade, where water tumbles down a series of broad, stepped rocks into a dark pool below. The waterfall is surrounded by lush green woodland, with sunlight filtering through the leafy canopy above. Built in the 18th century as part of the landscaped park around Virginia Water Lake in Windsor Great Park, the cascade was designed to look like a natural waterfall and remains one of the park’s most photographed features.

A freshly baked pizza rests on a wooden peel placed on a blue counter, its golden crust and melted cheese in sharp focus while the busy restaurant kitchen behind is softly blurred, with staff preparing food in the background.

Just after sunrise on the Grand Union Canal at Birdingbury Wharf, Warwickshire on the 4th of March 2026 #Scape #Canal #Warwickshire

Image shows the Grand Union Canal at Birdingbury Wharf as viewed from the A426 bridge over the canal. The canal has a gentle curve to the right and disappears out of view behind some canal side scrub. It was a slightly misty morning and both the sky and the canal were orange/yellow in colour. An orange un is visible behind some bare tree branches on the left hand side of the canal. The water is still apart from a few ripples towards the bottom left corner of the image that slightly distort the reflected tree branches in this part of the image.

#scape on the river just now. #ColorADay #BWFri Have a lovely Friday☕☕☀️

A black and white, minimalist, photograph of two people in a rowing shell on a perfectly still body of water. The rowers and their boat are centered, creating a crisp silhouette that is mirrored in the glass-like surface below.
The horizon line is low and thin, featuring distant, sparse trees and buildings on the far left. The sky and the water blend almost seamlessly into a soft, hazy white and grey gradient, giving the image a serene, ethereal, and timeless quality.

Just before sunset. Definitely an intriguing sky last night. Very hazy but beautiful.view over the fields as you emerge from the forest. Look after yourself, and try and check in on someone who might need it right now 💛 And we made it! #TGIF #scape #sunset #sky #clouds #naturephotography

A view just before the sun set in a hazy sky with small stretched out clouds. At the bottom of the frame, stalks of old grasses are visible popping up in the hedgerow.

Snowy riverbank with a calm, serene, reflective blue river. The sun shines brightly, creating a sparkling effect on the ice. Pine branches frame the scene.
