The island is a great place to visit, but not if it's windy. Our visit was cut short due to nearly being blown over once or twice and nearly losing the wife into the sea.
I love black and white photography and I love taking pictures. Having dabbled with black and white processing in the dark room I succumbed to the ease of technology and began to use some simple apps on my Mac to convert my shots. I've now started using Nik Silver Effects 2. Using this blog I hope to share some of my favourite pictures and occasionally some thoughts on our not so black and white world. I may also occasionally publish a colour picture or two.

Holy Island
The isle of Lindisfarne is a tidal island off the north-east coast of England. It is also known as Holy Island and constitutes a civil parish in Northumberland. Standing on a rocky outcrop overlooking the island is Lindisfarne Castle, a small fortress first built in 1550. The only way across to the island is to use a causeway, although you must remember to check the tidal times before you set off.
