Equinox Bonfire 2016
Another fabulous evening on the beach courtesy of Alice, and John Jackman who spent days collecting all of the trees. The fire potatoes will be back next year.

The changing face of Spring ice in the inner harbour reflects the darkness of an early morning and the lightness of an overcast midday.
