Perfect blue sky with Cliffords Tower watching over the city, surrounded by the glow of daffodils - is there anything that shouts "Spring" more than this?!

I'm only just getting round to uploading my photographs again, I find that life gets in the way and I love to look back at them and remember why I took that particular picture and where I was. Almost like a photo diary, but to share with whoever wishes to see - reach out if that's you! 🙋🏼‍♀️

One of my favourite sights in York is when the Sun hits Cliffords Tower and illuminates the daffodils. It's not very often that you get the chance to see both glowing, and the flowers don't last long before they die off so I'd always recommend visiting in the Spring if you can! The City Walls are also engulfed in daffodils, too! 🌼

What's your favourite season to visit York, and why? 🤔

Clifford's Tower has a beautiful glow at night, and in the spring it's flooded with daffodils. Be sure to get there before they start to die off, it's nowhere near as impressive 🤣
-
I hate to admit how long I wanted to get these pictures just to avoid having people in the shot/having to edit them out. All part of the fun 🤪

For once, York Minster wasn't encased by scaffolding when I was out! If you've been to the Minster before, or you're from York you'll know that usually part of the Minster is always being repaired - I mean it is absolutely huge and pretty old so it's not really a surprise!
-
Cloudy skies aren't always a bad thing - they look epic on photographs, and give a completely different look and feel to the shot. What do you think?

Sometimes it pays off to wander through the city at night - York Minster is always crowded with tourists during the day but rarely has anyone near it at night (usually because everyone is in a bar!)
-
I love the old-style street lights around the Minster, and think it adds to the aesthetic of the "oldy worldy" vibe of York - either that or they just give it a creepy feel 👻

I'm very lucky to call this city 'home'. Not many people can say that their city is as beautiful as York, nor does it have it's own city walls still standing. Watching the sunset with one of my close friends while chatting about life on a cool spring evening reminds me how important it is to appreciate life and admire the small things 💁🏼‍♀️
-
Sometimes, you're so wrapped up in life you don't take the time to see the beauty around you. You miss out on important moments, and take things for granted. It was pure chance that we decided to climb up to Clifford's Tower while the sun was setting over the city, but I'm glad we did! 🙌🏻

Not quite the Mickey Mouse that you'd expect to see 🤔 but then again this place wasn't exactly child friendly - surprisingly the structure of the building was actually pretty good, it was more the trippy writing on the walls and grafitti that wasn't very "PG".
-
Typical Insta removes the quality and size of the photo, which is a shame as the entire stairwell was pretty impressive. The steps led straight up onto the roof, over looking the Humber and set for a beautiful place to watch the world go by.
-
Maybe I'll have to take another trip inside and climb up to the roof, peace and quiet is always welcome when life is chaotic.

To some, this may just look like an abandoned building and smashed windows. But that's what is so special about photography - it's art.
-
I see it as eyes to the outside world, hiding what's inside. The crumbling wreckage and darkness slowly pulling down what once stood so grand, the eery and loneliness screaming from within and yearning to be what it once was. What people once saw. Seeing the world changing, and growing into new and improved versions. Watching the calmness of the river, yet the decaying inside.
-
Welcome to life with crippling anxiety and depression. From the outside, it may look fine but dig deeper, there's so much more to be seen that's not on show. No-one is fully showing you their flaws, and in this modern world of filters you often can't believe what you see is a true representation.

Tell me you love a sunset without telling me you love a sunset - I’ll go first 🤣😍
-
I was lucky enough to witness the sky bursting with colour this week, perfectly framed by the mountains and cobbled walls.
-
I will never get fed up of this view. It’s one of the few places I find I can switch off, the peace stops my mind running into overdrive and I can finally breathe again.

Where is your safe haven? Let me know below👇🏻

⚓️The ocean calls me 🌊
-
I’ve said it before, but being by the sea is so therapeutic. I find it calms me, and is one of the few places I can switch off my mind. Kind of ironic to say I can’t swim and crashing waves terrify me 🤣 but when the sea is calm, lapping onto the beach or rocks it gives me peace 👌🏻
-
Any ideas which beach this is in the UK? 🇬🇧

✨Let’s go, 2023 ✨
-
I was glad to see the back of 2022, the latter half of the year was extremely challenging for me and I always prefer the brighter months. I’m already planning my year of travelling and cannot wait to see more of the world ☺️
-
2023 is also the year I turn 30 (erm what?!) and I’ve made a list of 30 things I want to do before my 30th birthday. I’ve already started working on some of my goals, and I’m sure they will also be documented on here in some way 🙋🏼‍♀️
-
I’d also like to take more photos of abandoned buildings and graffiti. There are loads of different places I already have in mind, so watch this space 👀
