While I was walking along the coast near Edinburgh one day last month, I came upon a couple of the bays where there were masses of small boulders which had been churned up by the recent high tides, and dumped along the strand line. I guess the average size was about a foot wide by 8 or 9 inches in height and width, but there was a lot variation. There were all colours and shapes, but they seemed to be mainly sedimentary sandstones and mudstones and some conglomerates. Amongst them were many of these - red sandstone with quartz seams running through them. I don't know what was written on them, but they looked to be saying something, to someone, somewhere.
(A geologist contact tells me the 'hieroglyphs' are most probably calcite, not quartz. Thanks Dwight.)
This week's theme for Mosaic Montage Monday was Script. I was looking for something that said Merry Christmas, but all I got was MC Courtyard! Script is getting harder to find these days. HMMM!
Idling the night away as the rear DPU for the mornings’s westbound 121, CP 7010 is seen resting at Siberia on Eastern Maine Railways mainline. Depending on train length, and if Irving will be running any trains in the morning before 121 departs, we will often shove our 121 across the bridge at Brownville Junction over to Siberia in order to facilitate an easy recrew, as well as not having to pull the train through the yard to depart.
CP 230 leans through a curve approaching Lovekin Siding.
Train: CP 230 with CP 7012 (SD70ACu) and KCSM 4732 (ES44AC).

I zoomed in to capture this dune ridge where light and shadow meet in a series of repeating marks that feel less like erosion and more like handwriting. The scalloped shadows falling along the edge of the ridge read as strokes that seem gestural, rhythmic, and deliberate. The contrasting planes of bright sand and deep shade form the page on which they are written. I was drawn to this moment because the desert seemed to be inscribing itself, creating a silent script shaped by wind, gravity, and time instead of by ink and intention. I prefer expressing dunes not as landscapes or grand vistas but as intimate abstractions, inviting slower looking and attention to the subtle language of light.

2:52 Flip the Script - Groomzilla
I too found this theme challenging and had pre-concieved ideas about the shot I intended to post....but it was not to be. Rather than not post at all, I decided that this image might (hopefully) fit the theme, although at first glance you will probably wonder why....
This is the wedding set up for my partners son....and as we all know grooms generally just show up for the occasion don't they? Not this groom....he arranged everything, even down to the flowers!!. The wedding took place in Vanuatu, an island in the Coral Sea, which was virtually decimated 10 months ago by a Category 5 Cyclone. (A side note here, Vanuatu is essentially a 3rd world country about to have an election to replace the politicians that are now in gaol for stealing the cyclone relief funds that the world donated to help them rebuild!!)
Being young and naive the groom believed that his chosen venue would be rebuilt in time for the big day. It was not, hence the venue and accommodation for all guests had to be changed about 8 weeks prior to the event. And of course Vanuatu is again in the midst of cyclone season AND one was forming prior to and during our stay. The day of the wedding we awoke to heavy, squally rain and strong, gusting winds. The venue operators pleaded with the groom to move the event inside. He refused, firm in his belief that despite all the odds the weather would co-operate...and miraculously it did.
I took this picture about 3/4 hour prior to the ceremony when it finally cleared. The ceremony and reception took place on this deck and all guests sported that wonderful "windswept" hair look, including his 86 and 84 year old grand parents who made the long trek to attend.
Fortunately, the cyclone by-passed the Southern Islands of Vanuatu with no major damage.
My apologies for not keeping up over the past week, shall do my best to catch up over the next few days.
"It is easy to recollect the good things of life, the times when one's heart rejoices and expands, when everything is enfolded in kindness and love; it is easy to recollect the fineness of life-how noble one was, how generous one felt, what courage one showed in the face of adversity.":
