Watercolour skies

It rained like mad today, then cleared to an amazing pink before the sun set.
I have been doing a bit of coding, for the first time in a long while: various bits of functionality for the Shop: reporting, mostly. It's remarkable how you forget, and then pick it up again: I've gone from clumsily googling for basic functions to cheerfully writing quite long sections before I test the code actually works. I am still slowly running down most of my website work to other providers, with the aim of focussing more on the Shop.
I keep meaning to photograph some of the things I've drawn recently, then not getting around to it till the light has gone: autumn is fading in properly now, though last weekend was very warm. The temperature when I went swimming at Hazelbeach on Sunday was 17 degrees. The pontoon is still out there, though the one at Dale has already been taken in for the winter.

And good stuff with the coding — funny how it's kind of a "muscle-memory" (I guess the brain is a muscle) and it all comes right back!
Your mention of photographing reminds me that there was another map you mentioned you needed to photograph, if I recall correctly? (That type of my memory is always more vague of late!) I'm really looking forward to sharing your WoW maps in the next edition of my Mapping Arda series, if you're still keen. (It'll be published towards the end of November; I'm interspersing them with artist interviews.)

(Beleriand (and maybe NĂºmenor as well) will be in Part 2 of the series, Second and Third Age Middle-earth will be in Part 3, so only being published in January.)
