A bullnosed awning overhanging a window. Covered with layers of irregular corrugated iron, very unlike the style in Australia where a single sheet of corrugated iron is curved.
Real knowledge, or what is better called wisdom, is not a triumph over mystery but a rapport with the mystery—and with the meaning for which it stands.

Dante had become a not unfamiliar figure in Verona. Boccaccio tells of several Veronese ladies who saw him walking by one day. They were struck and a little frightened by his appearance, his face fixed in gloom and smudged as though by soot, his beard bristling as though tinged with fire. He seemed, they thought, a character emerging from his own Inferno.

A quiet forest scene in the hills of Ariège, France. The ground is bare—just soil and scattered rocks—leading into a stand of tall trees. Some are leafless, others sparse, all softened by a thick morning fog. The mist obscures the background, creating a layered depth and a sense of stillness. No human trace, just the raw geometry of trunks and branches fading into silence. A transitional moment in nature, caught between clarity and disappearance.
Well we headed to White Rock which I don't often do because of the crowds of people. Well on a mid-week morning not only was there no crowds but the parking was free, oh and the views are decent ;) Kris...

A small lochan glitters in the evening light on Sgurr Ghiubhsachain on the South side of Loch Shiel..
Thanks to Don and Teresa Williams, this Standard service station has been restored to the glory that is reminiscent of the 1950s. The pump, signage and other historical artifacts seen at the station are not the originals, but they represent similar items from the 40s and 50s. This building is located at Madison and Second Street in Prairie City, Iowa. And by the way, even though you can’t see it in this photo, the gas pump still indicates 23 cents a gallon (that was for leaded gas).

Another shot from my visit to Welcombe Mouth Beach the other week. Maybe not the most exciting photo in the world but I really loved the way the rock formations were layered in the cliff face here. I took a few shots showing the details of the rock but settled on this one with a tiny cave at the bottom of it giving some contrast to the rest of the cliff face. Sometime simple things can look quite interesting don't you think?
