Love the inclusiveness and the curiosity of this child about the enactment at the heart of Holy Week
Lovely view tonight . Mist at dusk at St Michael’s Mount .

So this happenned 26 years ago today.

A beautiful evening here in Mounts Bay Cornwall. Peaceful contemplative moment at the beginning of #HolyWeek2023
Today we remember the annunciation to Mary.
I took this picture last Sunday at St Hilary church in Cornwall. It was painted by Ernest Proctor, another of the Newlyn school of artists #feastoftheannunciation
Today all day: the rain it raineth ! Which is the title of this painting by the Newlyn school of painters artist Norman Garstin of Penzance promenade .
Gosh how wild wet and windy Cornwall be!

Every day I now join online . So far I have shared visited @Ely_Cathedral @CburyCathedral and @TruroCathedral

A few moments in the south aisle this evening @LincsCathedral
One of the beautiful retirement gifts I received was a piece of stained glass crafted by our very talented cathedral glazier. It depicts the hood of the Deans’s Jubilee Cope . The lilies are a symbol of Our Lady of Lincoln @LincsCathedral
Remembering 70th Anniversary of the North Sea flood today.
