Skies and Clouds

THE SHORES AROUND LANGSTONE HARBOUR.
RAINBOW OVER THE MANOR HOUSE
GIANT HOGWORT



CLOUDS OVER THE RACECOURSE



RED KITE and CLOUDS



SCOTTISH CASTLE IN THE EVENING SUN




SKIES AROUND MY HOUSE









Rows and floes of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds that way

Purple Photographs

Butterfly and thistle on my morning walk





The beautiful Rosanne perennial geranium in my garden




Agapanthas ready to open S.A




Plumbago growing wild in the gardens at Fugitives Drift S.A.

Sights and Sands of Arabia

The Desert
The crimson sun burns down with blazing heat,
Killing vegetation, scorching bare feet.
I journey alone through the rock and sand,
Hoping to one day flee from this wasteland.
Oasis's appear, springing up fast.
But these sources of life never do last.
They disappear before I get a taste,
And then I am forced to wander the wastes.
Nothing lives for long in this barren Hell.
Parched bones testify to that all too well.
When plants appear I hope for fertile land,
But when I reach them all I find is... sand.

These photographs were taken on a trip to Dubai, personally I think the city itself is more of a desert than the real desert, which is full of wonderful and magical colours forever changing.
I hope you enjoy some of the moods that I captured.
