Sun 19th June 2022 Sketch

Post by Montana »

The Isle of Man or the Isle of Sunshine? well, considering it is only 80miles from home we left home in the cloud and it has been sunny ever since we arrived. What a place, very quiet, full of lovely flowers and many birds. Seen so many Choughs on the cliffs it is amazing. Saw lots of Manx Shearwaters on the short ferry trip over here too.

This afternoon I enjoyed a lovely relaxing hour looking through the Coronado PST and Lunt Sunoculars. This is how life should be :) happiness at last.

Excuse the sketch, I will never be a Marios :lol: but I enjoy it.

I'll squeeze a few photos in too (Sunlit Earth really).
Back to the place of my birth for the short hop across the sea

Hi Alexandra: what beautiful sketches ! The Ha is so dynamic, you captured all the action of today’s active sun ☀️. You are really good at this, looking for more of your sketches in the future.
