Wednesday past was a freezing cold day but braving the elements (albeit briefly) was worth it. The calm water glistened in the morning sun and the waves lapped gently onto the shore.  On the horizon sea and sky seemed to merge effortlessly into a beautiful haze of misty blue.

These are pictures from Hazelbank, a park close to where I live and just a few miles outside Belfast. Forming part of the Causeway Coastal route, it is well worth a visit as you make your way around the beautiful coastline of Northern Ireland. You can see some more pictures on one of my earlier posts  Hello October – it’s a place I visit regularly to get some fresh air,  clear the head and seek inspiration.
