This shallow dof shot of some lavender is the last call for entries for this week’s Mono Monday challenge, whose theme is Soft.
The extra is for Cesani, who requested more squirrel blips. This little chap was quite nervous, as you can see from the way he’s arching his tail, and ran off shortly after I took this photo. I daresay he came back and carried on with his lunch as soon as the coast was clear.
Edit, 20.38pm: I just received a Red Aurora Watch alert from the University of Lancaster. It’s still unlikely that the aurora will appear this far south, but anyone with a clear sky in Scotland or the North of England should be on the look-out!
