Spittal beach in Northumberland has some wonderfully patterned rock formations which lend themselves nicely to a bit of abstract art
Very sadly many years ago my Great grandfather was washed up on these shores, after losing his life in the Eyemouth fishing disaster on October 14th 1881
It was known as Black Friday, the UK's worst ever fishing disaster.
189 men lost their lives, including my Great grandfather, his son, his brother and two of his wife's brothers. Eyemouth alone lost 129 menfolk and many of their families had watched on in vain, as the boats had tried desperately to return to harbour
They had put to sea that day as money was short and they needed to pay the tithe demanded by the Church of Scotland. Twenty six boats in total were engulfed by the storm that arose that day. A storm of extraordinary violence
There was an occasional miraculous story, when days later a boat limped into harbour, having beaten the storm but left those onboard traumatised
The Eyemouth museum has a tapestry, depicting the scene, with details of all those lost.
Did you ever had a chance to see the backside of a leaf of the beautiful Victoria Amazonica? Such an impressive pattern...
Avec de l'imagination, mes petites lamelles de papier m'ont aidé à construire un monde coloré à la texture tout en douceur qui devrait aider à la recherche d'une vie plus harmonieuse. #Macro #MacroMondays #UnusualPatterns
"I never accepted the idea, that I had to be guided by some pattern or blueprint."
Quote - Little Richard
An attempt to make a shot of the whole frontside of the staircase of the Academie voor Muziek, Woord en Dans (Academy for Music, Word and Dance) in Mortsel (Belgium), I had to hold my camera this way ;-)
In 'Blueprint' you can see the "normal" position ;-))
