I titled this "Desolation of Smaug" because for some reason this reminds me of The Hobbit movies.. o.O lol

There is no light, Wizard, which can defeat darkness.

 

In which Gandalf meets Sauron, and the olive green conspiracy is tested.

Built for the MELO and Mike Doyle's Dark contest.

 

Thanks for stopping by!

At Taylors Mistake, Christchurch

Dungeness is a strange and desolate area and one of the largest shingle landscapes in the world also known for its lack of rain fall as Britains only desert , a third of the plant species growing in the UK can be found here . The wooden houses are buffeted by strong winds and calm days are few and far between , power stations, lighthouses and gravel pits are the main features . There are many boats often damaged beyond repair and abandoned to the elements as is the one in the background of this image . In the foreground a Kestrel hunts for food for its young over a patch of Bramble and Red Valerian under an early evening moon . Sorry if I have gone on a bit here but a landscape with a bird in it is not like me at all !!

♫ Spoken sideways and indirect

Without a single word left unchecked

And by your own admission

No one is ever above suspicion

Defenses never to be let down

The lies readily abound,

Gaping jaw tightly wound.

In your desolation

Still searching for nowhere

Desolation

You’re living in nowhere........♫

Desolate is not emptiness—it is presence stripped bare. It is the echo of what once was, the stillness after the story ends. Cobwebs cradle memory, pumpkins sit like sentinels of forgotten warmth, and the wall cracks not from age, but from holding too much silence.

 

At CHAI., we honor the quiet spaces— the ones that ache, that remember, that invite reflection in the absence of noise. This is not Halloween décor. It is a meditation on decay, nostalgia, and the beauty of what lingers.

 

step into the stillness, and find poetry in the dust.

Desolation

 

Sometimes the road ahead may look bleak but what is around the next corner will never be known until you reach it.

 

This is the road leading into the iconic Glencoe in the heart of the Scottish Highlands. No matter the weather it is magnificent. Fortunately as a key worker I was able to capture this whilst driving to work. With very little other traffic I was able to get the shot from the middle of the road without causing any risk to myself or others.

Fort Worden, Washington

 

On the left you can see the remains of the main gun line, Batteries Randol, Quarles, and Ash.

With Corfe Castle being shrouded in the fog this morning, I took a trip past Wareham Quay on my way home. I got my welly's on and got down into the river for some shots of the boats in the fog. Great fun!

This elegant sentinel stands in the Upper Terrace of Mammoth Hot Springs, and is probably one of the most photographed trees in Yellowstone National Park.

A lunar hiking experience in the Krafla volcanic area. The Leirhnjúkshraun lava field is the result of the numerous eruptions of the Krafla caldera, especially along the active Leirhnjúkur volcano where the lava is still blazing from the latest eruption in 1984.
