Watch the skies!
I felt my lungs inflate with the onrush of scenery—air, mountains, trees, people. I thought, “This is what it is to be happy.”
― Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar
fenced in
ashen
dare you?
laid bare
peeled and scrubbed
baked in
bright red tomatoes
just don’t
yes, indeed
do not remove
out of place
disused
emptied
well stocked
lucky
Images shot at The Old Chapel, near Crickhowell in South Wales, with Nikon D700 in manual mode at ISO200 and Nikkor AF-S 50mm f/1.4 G and Nikkor AF 80-20omm f/2.8 D lenses.
…listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth
Wuthering Heights, Emily Bronte
Hidden away, yet not so very far away, from the asphalted path to (over)heated holiday hell waits a world of standing stone sentinels, chalked up symbolism, whispering reeds, serried rows of silent corn. No queues for petrol, diesel, burgers (nor crushing coronaries). No three-laned black topped road to nowhere (and back again).
No sound, except the wind, and the well of words within.
Shot with Nikon D700 in manual mode and ISO200 with AF Nikkor 80-200mm f/2.8D lens.
There’s no need to raise your voice here. You don’t have to convince anybody of anything, and you don’t have to attract anyone’s attention
― Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood
I hear you,
whisper
in the long grass
and in, the reeds
along, the banks.
I hear you,
whisper
in the leaves, of the
trees
and (in) the beards of those
who ride long,
and hard.
I hear you,
whisper
in the (endless) night,
when the stars,
fall,
and (yes)
I hear you, whisper
when you, are
gone.
whisper

Every act of rebellion expresses a nostalgia for innocence and an appeal to the essence of being
