We love our borrowed landscape with its gentle sloping hillside and its big skies. Today as the weather changed and the snow began to melt away, the view from our garden looked different every time we looked at it. Things should be changing now though, as British Summer Time has arrived. We have been around the house changing the clocks. Luckily the cars, computers and our smart phones do it for themselves.

A retired primary school head teacher, I now spend much of my time gardening in our quarter acre plot in rural Shropshire south of Shrewsbury. I share my garden with Jude my wife a newly retired teacher , eight assorted chickens and a plethora of wildlife. Jude does all the heavy work as I have a damaged spine and right leg. We also garden on an allotment nearby. We are interested in all things related to gardens, green issues and wildlife.

What fortune to have borrowed views that are so scenic.
Beautifully shot – I’m relearning something about ‘tone’ in painting and these pictures are a perfect exponent of how light changes everything.
Really beautiful pics! Did’nt realise you still had snow over there. Here in Ireland Spring has arrived…for now.

We still have two clocks that we didn’t put back last year so we had to remember not to put them forward! We have a lot of clocks and it seems to take a good day to synchronise everything. The longer days are great though!
I really enjoyed your photos, thank you for sharing them.
My pleasure! Glad you like them. Malc
Malc, these are truly lovely. So peaceful.
Thanks Margie. We enjoy our big skies! We have even had a big viewing window built into our roof so that we can watch the clouds go by from our gallery/library. Malc
Many thanks, Margie
Sometimes minimal can say so much – beautiful Malc.
Thanks Graham. Sometimes the beauty of the sky is overpowering even though simple. malc
