Cloud rolls in over Sanna Bay from the North but a small gap in the clouds persists on the western horizon and lets through some golden light to colour the water and sand on the shoreline.
The Persistence of Memory by Salvador Dalí (1931) is one of the most famous works of modern art, often reproduced and parodied. In a section of this painting, ants gather on a pocket watch lying at the edge of a box, next to a clock that has melted over the side, making it useless for telling time. Despite its small size (24 × 33 cm), the painting is filled with many details. The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York.

This decaying fencepost in the middle of the Alvord Desert Basin is a remnant from a borax mining operation from the 19th century.
Visiting the Alvord in March presented some photographic challenges in the form of huge storms that would blow in every hour or so. The one in the background had just blown past me, giving me a rare and welcome patch of sunlight to work with.
Energy and persistence conquer all things.

E. M. Forster never gets any further than warming the teapot. He's a rare fine hand at that. Feel this teapot. Is it not beautifully warm? Yes, but there ain't going to be no tea.

"Stubborn Persistence" by Alfredo Hlito.
Part of a special exhibition of works of Alfredo Hlito from July 28, 2023 to October 21, 2023.
Painted in 1931 by Salvador Dalí “The Persictence of Sheepery” was planed as an angry accusation of the horrible, but in those times often practised, practise of sheep bathing and then leaving them hanging out to dry for days.
Unfortunately, just before he could put it on display and show the world what the poor sheep had to go through in his native country, Salvador Dalí went mad.
Forgetting all about being an ambassador of all things sheep he threw the painting away and made a new version with silly melting clocks and thus losing the heartbreaking message of the painting that could have saved so many sheep from their horrible ordeal.
Dalí, still quite mad, felt a deep resentment towards him whenever he encountered a sheep on his walks and soon after fled the country and settled in the United States where his madness went unnoticed.
“The Persistence of Sheepery” meanwhile disappeared, never to be seen again until it´s recent discovery in an attic by a certain sheep on a cookie search.
These little fellas are starting to take over!!

Persistence pays off as I finally get a clear shot at Low Wood Bay.
Shame it was an Enviro on a 555 and not the intended Volvo B5 but with only one 599 an hour that chance had gone as by the time of the next one the sun would've been too low.
Still, quite happy with this one and took a second shot of just the lake, enabling this two-shot panorama to be made.
Should we get one I'll go back on a sunny weekday for a better chance of an uncluttered shot of a 599 here.
