" 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!

Downstream from RMNP, near Lyons, CO. The formations remind me of Franconia Notch State Park, in NH.

Chalk streams are rivers that rise from springs in landscapes with chalk bedrock. Since chalk is permeable, water percolates easily through the ground to the water table and chalk streams therefore receive little surface runoff. ... Of the 210 rivers classified as chalk streams globally, 160 are in England

After a late rise on my day off I discovered it was foggy. So hopped onto the bus that went to Ljungskile and hiked up to Tjölstelsröd nature reserve for a day out. Sadly by the time I got there most of the fog had lifted but you can never go wrong when spending the day out in nature. Last time I took a picture from here I was balancing on that foreground rock with my tripod sitting precariously on the darker rock just above it. Today I played it safe and just stood beside the stream :D

This stream links a lake to the ocean. This stream is not always open to the ocean but has been open for quite a while due to heavy rains this year. This photo taken from the north side and I had a long walk to get to this point. It was low tide and the ocean was actually flowing back into the lake.

Just about to cross a footbridge over the stream and these daffodils caught my attention. I liked the way they sort of gleamed in the evening light. As you can see there's still plenty of colour in the sky.
