  1. Golden rapeseed fields stretch towards the horizon, where the #NorthSea meets a rugged headland, creating a serene #CoastalView. The peaceful countryside is dotted with small villages, offering a glimpse of rural life amidst the vibrant #RapeseedField. In the distance, the silhouette of historic ruins crowns the cliff, a reminder of the area’s rich heritage and its appeal to walkers and sightseers. A soft #SunsetSky paints the landscape in warm hues, perfectly complementing this tranquil corner of the British #Countryside.

  3. The tree on the ridge

    I took this from the Coachford Greenway, shooting through the ditch instead of over it, which is why you’ll see the frame of dark leaves and grass. The sky was flat grey and heavy. A few minutes later it started raining, but I had an umbrella, and I had a couple of nice photos....

  5. Mist

    a lake
    
    filled with fish shadows
    swimming in dark depths
    across a bottom covered with
    green creeping algae
    
    weeping willows press close
    moss hangs from branches 
    looming over the water
    where the wet roots of the trees 
    grip fungus covered rocks
     
    a mist slowly rises pale and thick
    from the glistening surface
    forms appear and vanish within
    weaving to and fro like ghosts
    swimming up into the night sky
    
    a white blanket spreads slowly
    over the sleeping countryside
    swirling around houses
    and slipping into chimneys
    across the silent hearthstones
    until the rising sun
    burns it away
