Rainy stairs of Calton Hill. ☔

Hardly any tourists out on our last day in Edinburgh. Earlier in the week, these stairs were crowded with people. Now, only rivers of rain.

Edinburgh was a magical visit. I'd love to go back and explore all the spots we missed.

Hiking Arthur's Seat in Edinburgh

We took two hours to hike up and down Arthur's Seat in Edinburgh. It was incredible!

Everything was so green and yellow while the city was bathed in mist and cloud.

Edinburgh is fortunate to have such epic nature so close to the city.

Walk around #Waterford with me. (8 of 8)

Underneath the only overpass in town, kids have created some amazing underground art. Never underestimate someone's desire to tag a wall! 😂

Walk around #Waterford with me. (6 of 8)

The amazing texture of the tree stump contrasts with the soft flowers embracing it. I think the flowers will fully cover the stump in a few more seasons. But until then…

Walk around #Waterford with me. (5 of 8)

The local public library has never looked more striking! These geometric lines cast by the harsh light aren't unique, but I love them. I think they're perfect for black-and-white photography.

Walk around #Waterford with me. (4 of 8)

I have no idea what kind of plant this is! 😂

Given the shape of the leaves, I'm guessing it's a weed, but the purple flower is beautiful.

Walk around #Waterford with me. (3 of 8)

I love how the shadow carves across this back alley. In the summer these trees cast so much shade that the grass begins to die.

Walk around #Waterford with me. (2 of 8)

The lily pads are bountiful in the spring. Sadly they only last for a month before they're gone. They're one of my favourite parts of spring down at the ponds.

Walk around #Waterford with me. (1 of 8)

Waterford is a small town. Even so, there are still interesting things to photograph. No matter where you live, you can find something.

How it started. How it's going.

Quite a dramatic change from a few months ago when everything was frozen! Our favourite tree still hasn't fully blossomed but the lily pads provide plenty of green! 😄

Hopefully, I can get a good photo in the summer and then again in autumn and have the whole "Four Seasons"

Transition between Spring and Summer.

Beautiful pink leaves of Spring are changing over to green leaves of Summer. The Spring explosion of colour is brief but intense.

Here's hoping for an awesome Summer.

Forest green sunshine. 🌲

I love how the branch from the right frames the wildflowers blossoming in the sunshine as the dried needles on the forest floor contrast the green grass.

Feels like a painting!

Sometimes you're just in the right spot at the right time.

I had been standing there taking photos of these two (and the one in the background) but they weren't doing anything besides cleaning themselves.

Suddenly the big one stood up and flapped out those magnificent wings! Glad he didn't decide to attack me!

As close as I dared to go!

Did not want to tangle with a couple of geese who were out for a walk with their goslings. I turned around and re-crossed the bridge and took a different route home. 😅
