Fabulous! I hope @ianprowse.bsky.social will return to Strings on the Isle of Wight one day. Such great memories from that night πΆ
I spent yesterday evening patiently waiting for the moon to appear, whilst my husband achieved a shot that he's been after for a few years.
It was a lovely walk this afternoon, worth the tingly nettle stung legs and hayfever sneezes π
We went for a beautiful late evening stroll with the camera last night π

I'm not usually one for fireworks, but it was quite a sight up on the cliff tonight.
Memories!

A moonlit Needles taken during the full moon from a couple of weeks ago. The moonlight was so strong that it highlighted the textures in the chalk cliffs. #IsleofWight #LandscapePhotography
I should like a sofa like that, but I really don't!

The crescent moon looked incredible last night. Earthshine gave the appearance of the moon being full. It was too dark to capture the Needles in the distance, but it was fun to be out. #IsleofWight #Moon #Photography

I finally ordered the vinyl yesterday. I'm sure I hadn't already done so, but I might end up with 2 copies if my memory is playing tricks on me π
My turntable is ready and waiting for this!
Happy birthday to you π₯³ππ±

Wow, that was powerful. The vocal is stunning, especially with those dangerously compelling lyrics.
I'm going in now. Looking forward to this one!
Yarmouth Pier in the early Spring sunshine. It was a little tricky photographing it when it was devoid of people π #IsleofWight #LandscapePhotography
