The trail is like a border between ancient worlds. The earth behind this trail was formed 40 million years ago, in warm world of near-tropical, jungle-like forests.
The colorful red and golds hills represent a world with seasonality, 33 million years ago. Then, deciduous forests covered the land.
The distant ridgelines are topped with layers of flood basalts. These lava layers represent another world in time, 16 million years ago when enormous lava flods covered thousands of square miles of savanna-like ecosystems.

Earth, water, wind and fire. // Every realm separated from one other. // In the city, borders / sometimes become blurred.

Well... it's the first week of 2023 & I'm already breaking the rules of "52 Weeks for DOGS"... because there's clearly no dog at all in this photo. Nope. Not one single canine in sight. Funny thing: I swear, just a moment earlier, there WAS a border collie running about, in plain view but then *poof*, he vanished on me! Weird. As my dog had disappeared, I had to settle with taking a picture across this perfectly empty field of winter wheat. I always like that little hill in the background.
Next week I'll post an actual photo of Flynn but for anyone new to the group: he's a 9yr old border collie, born in a barn up in Scotland, sold to a pet home as a puppy (good job too - Flynn has strong herding instincts but he also likes his home comforts & would be cross as two sticks about living in a barn forever). He came to me at nearly 2yrs old. His first owners couldn't cope anymore - Flynn's behaviour was pretty outrageous! Poor guy was sick but for a long time no-one knew: Flynn was pretty good at hiding the physical symptoms & instead, just went around biting people he lived with (never strangers, thankfully!). Took nearly a year but we finally identified & fixed Flynn's pain & have been slowly working through his behavioural issues ever since. We've had no major upsets in a long time, though I never take things for granted. Even by border collie standards Flynn's an eccentric, complicated character but he's also a sneaky little charmer... impossible to resist! In fact, Flynn's helped at least a couple of people get over their fear of dogs, which is quite a feat, given his history :)
