Above these walls there is a place. Follow the path of your imagination. Can you see that far. What if, my mind will take me, and if you see, what then. Let us wonder together, and we will see.
A gorgeous view down the Upper Eskdale Valley from the high ground near the old Roman Fort at Hardknott, looking towards the Scafell range.
My eye was drawn by the long dry stone wall that leads right up the valley, which certainly stood out in the bright late afternoon winter sunlight.
I had wandered around the ruins of the Roman Fort and had the whole area to myself. It certainly had me thinking what life must have been like for the Roman Soldiers stationed here on this lofty site throughout the winter months, miles from their Mediterranean climes! There certainly would not have been many winter days like this one to enjoy, for sure!

A drystone wall with a cemented topping near the village of Cheddleton in Staffordshire. Is there a local game to see how many pieces of the wall can be removed before it collapses?
Somehow, this wall background showed off the beauty of tulips to good effect.
Who knew?
I guess it is because the wall is a regularly structured uniform surface in a contrasting color,
but not a blank surface. There is just enough structure and bland-but-deep, warm color
for us to know it isa "nice" wall. However, there is not enough to the wall to drag our attention away
from either the tulips or the little volunteer primulas and mini geese flowers in the lawn.
These latter pretty little things in the foreground shield us from having to see that
the beautiful tulips are standing in plain old dirt. 😎
Location: Front yard of a private home, Riehen BS Switzerland.

Evening sunlight dappling through street trees onto a bright yellow wall. An outdoor spotlight connects it visually to the intersecting cream painted brick wall.

Walls designed by Leonardo da Vinci to defend the Citadel, during his stay in Piombino from 1502 to 1504.
Taken out of the car window, the colourful Valerian flowers on top of this wall caught my eye. For Growing in the Gaps & happy Wall Wednesday!
On the right, the sacred (churchyard), on the left, the profane (residential area). Without the wall, you wouldn't notice the difference. Fuji X-Pro1 plus Helios 44M-7 wide-open (image has been cropped).
A good start to 2019 with a Peacock seen flying as well as 4 Wall Brown larvae on January 1st.
At this stage the Wall Brown larva are just under 1 cm long.
This one was found on my local patch as it was feeding on a blade of Cocksfoot grass. As can be seen, it has eaten away quite a bit of the grass above it and below where it is seen here.
Most mild, sunny days they come out of the grass tussocks to feed, although they are still hard to spot. The 2nd and 3rd brood larva are even harder to find as they only seem to feed at night.
Around the beginning of April they will start to pupate and then by the end of April the butterflies will be on the wing.
