Welcome to the Sunday Stills feature hosted by Terri Webster Shrandt.
The theme this weeking is Seeking the Light.
This was taken on an early morning walk with my dog a few years ago. The moon was setting as I walked down the hill to the coast with the sun just beginning to rise behind me.

The butterfly found an unusual place to warm itself in the sun. I don’t think the starling will find much light there though.


Finding the light through the trees.

I imagine the owners of the narrow boats are hoping the sunlight will be warm enough to melt the iced up canal.

One of the rooms inside Doune Castle in Scotland. The castle is a medieval stronghold near the village of the same name. It has been used several times as film or TV locations, most notably as Castle Leoch for the Outlander series and Monty Python’s Holy Grail.

I really like this effect, the trees look lovely as they catch the sunlight.

I really enjoyed these locations, Cathy. Good to get out in the fresh air!

You have captured the various ways light falls whether through sunrises, or how it illuminates trees, through windows, and so many others, Cathy. Doune Castle looks amazing (I’ve seen 5 seasons of Outlander). I really like how you caught the moon in the first shot with the rising sun behind you in that image, stunning!

Thanks so much, Terri. I loved those early morning walks, the sunrises were often amazing and being by the sea was a bonus, despite the sometimes very strong winds.

That was actually the moon setting. This was early in the morning and just caught it disappearing quickly. It only took a few minutes and it was gone.

I actually knew that and just smacked my head! I’ve seen one of these before and it just takes your breath away in the moment. You’re so fortunate to have captured this.

Yes, a few minutes later and I would have missed it.

Beautiful images and I bet those narrow boat owners were wishing for more sunlight especially if they have solar power. Though most have wood burners which would make their toes nice and toasty.
