My daughter Heather, catching up on school work during the lockdown of spring 2020.
It’s been an odd time, staying close to home, only straying out for walks and swims and shopping when we really need stuff. Hope everyone is doing OK out there in the rest of the world.
Funny year for photos last year. Spent most of my spare time shooting video, and work was a little uninspiring. Here’s a few random photos from during the year! Best of luck for 2014 everyone, lets see where it takes us.
Coleraine celebrated 400 years of a royal charter this year. A big fireworks event was held along side the River Bann. I made this picture.. a little cruel perhaps..

Lumiere in Derry. Fire lights up St Colums park. One of the highlights of the year for me.
Roe Valley Country Park today. Nice to get a dander in the sunshine, between the showers. Colours were just superb today, with the recent wet weather and warm sunshine mix, everything seems to have started growing and flowering all of a sudden.
My daughter Heather, enjoying a bit of quiet reading time, during Earth Hour this evening. Time to turn out the lights, turn off the TV, and relax with the family.
So quiet today at Downhill Forest. Lovely dander round in the ice and snow.

Ballinrees, on the Windyhill Road, Coleraine. Beautiful spot for a dander round. Coleraine was totally shrouded in mist, but up the hill at the lake, it was sunny, misty and beautiful.
This guy stood stock still and watched us as we approached, until eventually deciding we were cool, and gave us a wag of his tail

Enjoyed a lovely walk in Drumlamph Wood near Maghera today with the family. Here’s some oak leaves in the mud, on one of the many winding paths.
Its a great place to go explore, even on a wet and muddy day like today.

Winding paths take you through the old Hazel and oak woodland.
