" And I shall have some peace there, For peace comes dropping slow,
Dropping from the veil of morn, To where the cricket sings,
Where midnights all a glimmer, And noon a purple glow,
And evenings filled with linnets wings "
{William Butler Yeats}
This stream comes from a spring that cascades out from under a boulder high up on the ridge in the distance. It plays it own special music as it tumbles down the mountain where it joins many other such streams, eventually forming the great Vartry river which enters the port of Wicklow 20 miles to the south east.
The lone Mountain Ash stands and watches its passing as it has done for so many years.
A wild and a beautiful place.

I took this photo from a small bridge over the stream but without a tripod because I never carry one. Of the three photos I took, this one gave me the idea of cropping it for an abstract photo because the water formed interesting shapes. I just saw this when uploaded the photos to my pc. See photo below! 👇
Still most of the leaves are green or turning brown from lack of rain. I hope everything changes during the next few days.
👉Thanks for your visit and taking the time to comment, so I can visit you, too...much appreciated!
This Blue Heron lives at Fassnight Park, about a five-minute walk from our home, and has become so used to us stalking him that occasionally he seems to pause for the camera to accomodate us before continuing his search for crawdads and minnows. . .
Small and beautiful stream through the forest. Standing on a few wooden plank with the tripod and shot taken with ND16 filter.
