I like the quiet, I like the dark,
Upon no one do I ever leave a mark.

In a world abandoned and scarred by the Great Catastrophe, the few remaining analogue humans and robots traverse a landscape of lost glory and silent stories. This image captures a moment in their journey, a snapshot of resilience and unspoken bonds in the aftermath of the Great Exodus.
Poem
In the hush of a forsaken world,
Where echoes of laughter have long unfurled,
Lies the husk of a planet, once so bright,
Now a canvas of shadows, devoid of light.
Through the ruins, they walk - the steel and the flesh,
In a ballet of survival, their stories mesh.
Ghosts of a past, where hope once dwelled,
In the hearts of the lost, silently swelled.
Amidst the rubble of dreams, they seek,
A new dawn, a whisper, a future to speak.
For in this world of despair and sorrow,
Lies the seed of a new 'morrow.
Haiku
Whispers in ruins,
Hope glints in steel and flesh paths -
New dawn in old world.

Pictures from the sheep market outside Marjane, a chain grocery store in Rabat. Each family buys one sheep to have ritually slaughtered on the first day of Eid al-Adha, which was on December 1st this year in Morocco. Sheep are sold by weight; these ones seemed to average about $230. Here a sheep identified by an interested customer has been placed in the blue bucket and then on to the scale to be weighed and priced.

In Girvan harbour. I'm afraid the link to this week's Weather theme is not so strong. I have been waiting all week for snow to arrive, but so far not a single flake, nor even rain, or strong winds - have run out of time. I suppose some jobs are more weather-dependent than others, and hope that angle provides enough of a link.
