Well, what are friends for? :)
Taken on a photography day with CaptiveLight at Liberty's Owl, Raptor & Reptile Centre near Ringwood in Hampshire.
Ever since starting my studies, I felt I've done too little to my hobby. I'm often longing to photography whenever I ride back to my home town in the train. Today I did again, as there were some impressive skies. I jumped on my bicycle, and tried to do something else for once (that means no windmills).
What of miniature boats constructed of birch bark and fallen leaves, launched onto cold water as clear as air? How many fleets were pushed out toward the middles of ponds or sent down autumn brooks, holding treasures of acorns, or black feathers, or a puzzled mantis?
Let those grassy crafts be listed alongside the iron hulls that cleave the sea, for they are all improvisations built from the daydreams of men, and all will perish, whether from ocean siege or October breeze.
