Summer is here, and the stone trolls are peeping out from beneath her green and floral skirts. Lured out into the warmth and light they share a tale or two of the deep dark earth. Can you see them, blinking and smiling in the sun?

How could anyone fail to notice the trolls! I wonder if taking their picture turns thenm into stone ….
How wonderful that you can see the trolls – I can see them too! Thank you for looking at my beautiful fairy,
Your fairy really was beautiful….rather lighter on her feet than these slow stone trolls…but each holds its own magic 🙂
I think they look pretty grumpy – perhaps that’s because their eyes are still adjusting to the sharp sun? I repeat what everyone has said already: it’s so good to see you back again. Me too, I have missed your beautiful and inspiring posts! (And should the trolls start bothering you, try wearing amber, it was believed to keep trolls away!)
Wonderful advice…and I do indeed often wear Amber…perhaps that’s why I’ve always returned intact, so far! To e they are smiling, but yes through eyes squinting at the sudden bright light of summer 🙂
Ah – what a wonderful shot! Good to see you here again…
Thanks Fi, its very good to back and working the creative brain again….too much work maakes for such a dull life!
Magical. The one on the far right is smiling. 🙂
He is Brenda….aren’t they cute!
Yes, indeed. 🙂 What a magical place you live in.
Beautiful as ever. Lovely to see you back, Seonaid. Hope all is well with you and yours x
Thanks Sue, it’s good to be back….it’s been a funny winter, but here we are renewed and with a subtle shift in focus, suddenly in summer!
The last six months or so seem to have flown by somehow…
I see them, indeed. How imaginative you are, Seonaid.
Thanks so much Jane….my mind is a mystery even to me 🙂
It’s super lovely to see you back here Seonaid, sharing your beautiful images. I look forward to more – plus some of your insights and poems too. 🙂
Thanks Kellie…my creative wheels are beginning to turn once again….so watch this space 🙂
Oh those Troll faces are really wonderful. So great to see you again, Seonaid. I’ve missed you. 🙂
Aren’t they delightful….it’s hard to resist a good troll!! Lovely to hear from you 🙂 I have a lot of catching up to do!!
I smiled right back! 🙂 Glad you finally made it out from under, Seonaid. 🙂 Hugs!
Thanks Jo….I’m sure life is going to feel a whole lot easier again….and much more creative!
Indeed, I DO see them blinking and smiling in the sun 🙂
I’ll look forward to seeing more you now that summer is here. As with the others, it’s wonderful to see a post from you!
Aren’t stone trolls cute….we were just driving away from the sacred well and the beautiful shoreline, which I had spent quite sometime photographing, while my ever so patient husband played with the dogs…..keeping them in and out of scene as required…..so when I saw these guys from the car I just had to get him to stop and wait a little longer. He is really very patient 🙂
Trolls they are Seonaid! And beautifully captured. Well done and welcome back
Thanks Tina…glad you liked the trolls!!
Happy to see you again! Hope everything is fine. Summer time. 🙂 A big kiss.

I can see them! That aside, great to see you back Seonaid – it can be worrying when there is silence for a while….
