A clear sky, crossed with two vapour trails and the glow of sunset at the bottom. A silhouetted bare tree is at the bottom left, with the tops of a few houses visible.
Itβs been sunny! And Warm!

A view of the Elizabeth Tower (aka Big Ben) on the right and the rest of the palace silhouetted against a blue sky with bands of thick clouds. Silhouetted Victorian lampposts are on the left edge of the image.
The Palace of Westminster with some brief blue skies between showers yesterday.

A long-dead tree stump, bleached white. The land has eroded underneath it and it is now standing on a white beach, roots exposed. The turquoise sea is to the left and live trees and foliage on the right. The sky is mainly clear blue, with some clouds on the horizon and a faint one top centre right.

A view diagonally across the Thames, with Tower Bridge on the left and The Shard to the ight. The sky is mostly overcast, with a few central blue patches with the sun shining through a thinner section of cloud.
The sun was almost breaking through this morning!

I donβt think I managed to keep one, although Iβve got an old 10p and 5p.
My parents recently found a βbox of treasuresβ Iβd put together when I was around 9. As well as the coins, thereβs a compass, a magnet on a string, a small Lego car and an assortment of novelty pencil sharpeners!

The sun setting beyond a small harbour, reflecting on the sea. The sky is clear, other than for a small amount of cirrus.
It has stopped raining, at least, so another photo of #sunlight for #BlueSkyArtShow in the hope that it will manifest in reality!

The low sun on the right hand side of the image shining through high cloud onto the sea. Two small sailing boats are in the distance in the centre.
Absolutely no #sunlight here as it is yet another day of rain, but a photo from warmer climes for todayβs #BlueSkyArtShow
Taken from a ferry on the Sea of Marmara last year.

A life sized cast iron sculpture of a man, on a rock in the coast and revealed at low tide.
February started with clouds and rain, but made for a suitably moody setting for Antony Gormleyβs βAnother Timeβ sculpture at Margate.

A view large white bird sitting at the base of a tree (to the left) and looking towards the camera. There are black feathers on its wings and a long white tail. A brown/grey tern is standing at the rear of the image
Definitely at the point of winter when I've had enough of cold, wet days (although it is brighter today).
Reaching into the archive to find somewhere warmer, here's a White-Tailed Tropicbird (and Noddy Tern behind) in the Seychelles!

Havenβt posted much recently as lots going on irl, but hereβs a quick photo of the Newfoundland building at Canary Wharf, London.

It is, thank you for sharing.
Another bit of time-related trivia I like is that when the railways were built it necessitated a new national time zone (ie GMT). Some towns & cities resisted, and either refused outright or had two minute hands on their town clock, one local and one GMT!

It definitely is, in my experience. Although I found out the hard way that toddlers do have a strawberry limit.
Only went beyond that once, and letβs just say I was glad Iβd invested in a carpet cleaner!
