Fields of Beauty

God...I love spring in Poland!!

The Two Suns

This morning, Toruń (as it often does) witnessed a wonderful glowing sunrise. Helped by the clear skies and the ridiculously low temperatures (currently minus 19C!). It'sa new dawn, a new day...and I've got 12hrs work waiting for me (including teaching over in Inowrocław).

The Setting Sun

I love the crimson edges of the yellow sun as it sets Sunday evening over the snowy Polish fields. Poland often enjoys spectacular sunsets.

Old but Beautiful

Amazing to think that the bricks on this old tenement building are almost 350 years old...but as the date at the top proves...the building was built in 1653. It stands in the old market square...as the picture shows is best captured with the setting sun giving a crimson glow.

Two Suns

Trick photography? A crafty case of photoshopping? No simply there WERE two suns this morning (reflected through the window pane!!). ;-)

The Rising Sun

Captured rising high above the Polish countryside...the crimson glow of the mighty sun!

Sun & Sky

I was quickly called to the window by my ever-thoughtful wife to take this picture of the dramatic lighting on the tree and the dark grey ash-filled clouds that are currently hanging over Europe.

The volcanic ash from the Icelandic eruption has been causing immense travel chaos around the world...with a knock-on domino effect. My mother was due to fly tomorrow but her airline has cancelled ALL flights till Monday. So she's taking the bus instead!! Longer...but far more scenic!!
