'Peel Road' train stop on the old Northern Line from St. John's to Ramsey. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature

'Meadow Flow' downstream through the bluebell strewn meadow. My main camera away for a minor repair and service (more expensive than getting my car done!) so a revert to the 5D MK II. Still a great piece of kit. #IsleofManLandscapes #IsleofMan #ManxNature

'The Bell and the Sun Dog' - Slieau Freoghane (pronounced slew frock-cairn) with a faint sun dog just behind the bell as the cloud moves in quickly from the south. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature

'Promontory' - The Sulby Valley and the flat topped promontory with its stone walled sheepfold catching the sunlight. #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature #IsleofMan

'Soak it up' - evening light over the Sulby Valley as the setting sun catches the remnants of the old wall leading to the sun lit firs. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature

'On the brightside' - I've not taken much of note of late, very much the SSDD, and lacking in creativity. So nice to find a wiggly old fence catching the last of the sun yesterday. #IsleofManLandscapes #IsleofMan #ManxNature

'The Unfurling' - fern fronds, catching the sunlight as it meanders across woodland floor, in amongst the brilliant white wild garlic flowers. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature

'Bluebell Avenue' - it's been a good year for the bluebells. #IsleofManLandscapes #IsleofMan #ManxNature

'The Family Tree' - it's always nice when you come back home with the shot you went out to take. It doesn't happen often. The added bonus of having the lamb and sheep taking shelter beneath the tree. #IsleofManLandscapes #IsleofMan #ManxNature

'In the Morning light' - bluebells at Ballglass catching the early morning sunlight. The main section of the glen used to be a carpet bells. Just patches now due to all the paths, fallen trees trunks, half sawn and left. A mess. Unlikely it will ever return to what it was like.

'Behind the rain' - no where to shelter up on Sartfell as you see the approaching heavy shower coming your way over the Irish Sea. It was worth getting wet for the view afterwards. Late evening sunlight looking south down the Rhenass Valley. #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature

'Forest Rays' - sunlight through the forest in between yesterday evening's showers. #IsleofManLandscapes #IsleofMan #ManxNature

'Old Friend' - Good to see a favourite tree has made it through the winter unscathed. Normally visited in Autumn as the bracken changes colour, but this works equally well with the low sunlight catching the tree with the foreground mix of light and shade. isleofmanlandscapes.com/old-friend

'Spring Haze' - the view south from Beinn-y-Phott toward Carraghan and the hazy rolling hills beyond. South Barrule in the far distance. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature

'North Easter' - the cold and windy view toward North Barrule on Good Friday evening. One of this long weekend's calmer days....albeit still an effort to stand up as the wind crosses the hill tops. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature

'Off into the sunset' - I've not taken much of late, a combination of poor weather and laziness. Another shot from several days ago. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature

'Halcyon Days' - hard to believe that only a few days ago we were enjoying calm and warm weather. #IsleofManLandscapes #IsleofMan #ManxNature

Scallop shell in the wash of the incoming wave. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature

'Morning Therapy' - there's something therapeutic about taking in the first light of the day as the sun appears over the horizon. Aptly taken on Sunday. #IsleofMan #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature

'Through the haze' - silhouetted trees against the hazy backdrop of Slieau Ruy. #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature #IsleofMan #SlieauRuy
