Crofter’s dawn

Before I went out to feed the pigs this morning, I was aware of a pink glow filtering through the front windows of our house.

What I didn’t realise until I’d reached the feed shed and looked back over my shoulder was just how impressive the dawn sky was.

I decided the pigs could wait, again, and ran back into the house for the camera.

First, a view from the feed shed towards the house. Next, a view from the vegetable patch, through the trees towards Dunnideer.

Time was short—we have rugby on Saturday mornings—but those first images promised greater things if I ran to the top of our hill.

So I did. The results were worth it, even if I couldn’t wait for the sun to clear the horizon.
