The tapestry of time, where threads entwine,
Parallels weave a story, a rhyme divine.
Echoes of the past, a whisper in the ear,
A bridge that spans the ages, without a fear.
In ancient lands of wonder, where myths unfold,
A mystic mirror reflects, a story yet untold.
The paths of heroes, warriors, and sages bright,
Converge with ours, in a celestial light.
The threads of destiny, a tapestry so fine,
Interweave the moments, a rhyme of time.
In every era, a chorus sings the same,
A harmony of hope, a refrain of love's flame.
The whispers of the past, a wisdom yet to share,
A knowledge that transcends, the bounds of care.
The parallels of time, a mystery to unwind,
A journey through the ages, where hearts and minds entwine.
In this great dance of time, we find our place,
A part of the tapestry, a thread of human pace.
The parallels of time, a story yet untold,
A rhyme of hope and love, that echoes through the ages old.
A few more recent people-watching shots taken while strolling along the promenade and beach at Portobello, Edinburgh's seafront.
So far winter has evolved into a series of freeze-thaw cycles. Winter storms dump heavy snow followed by warm days that melt it all down. This is an observation rather than a complaint. Honestly I prefer having winter served up in bite-sized pieces. I've experienced the other kind where harsh winter weather locks down for weeks at a time. There's a real mental beat-down effect to unrelenting cold and storms. So this way is much preferable. The transition phase is the most intriguing to me. Winter storms leave vast stretches of virgin white snow in their wake. The kind of snow epitomized in a white Christmas sort of way where the beauty of snow outweighs the downside. It conjures up images of sleigh rides and people skating on woodland ponds in the tradition of a Currier & Ives print. Nothing but winter fun! But that effect begins to dissolve the moment warmer weather moves back in. Scenes such as this are far more typical; a gritty looking landscape of half melted snow, and grimy looking heaps left by snowplows. Frozen snow and liquid water often coexist, and the result is a sloppy, muddy mix that (almost) makes me wish for the return of arctic air. I was struck by the moody, shadowy quality of the snow melt as I walked along this country lane. The sky and utility pole reflected eerily in the water, every bit as grim as the scene before me. No Currier & Ives skaters to be found. Just the echoing blast of distant hunter's gunfire. And the last gasp of the feeble December sun. A perfect winter day.
@ Tully Cross along the Connemara Loop, Ireland
Dug up some shots taken during my vacation cycling around the Connemara Loop last summer. I really miss that beautiful place!

This is probably my last attempt at a composition based around this tree, although in reality I know I'll keep trying.
I have viewed it from afar so many times now as I walk the down land all around it.
The two strips of land running through the field are for wildflowers and wildlife, left fallow by the farmer. It has become common practice on all the farms around here but usually it is the margins left uncultivated.
The church at East Meon is just visible center right.
Probably best viewed large!
More like 1019 than 1159 !!!

Just a few minutes before the coming of a massive snow squall, CP 686 runs alongside BNSF train M-GALIHB at Blue Island Jct., until crossing over onto CSX's Barr Sub. for a run around the corner to CSX's Barr Yard. Once there and recrewed with CSX personnel, this train will become train K236-01 for McKees Rocks, PA.
