by the wind. I loved the way the wind blew the sand into these tiny mountains and raised the shells and pebbles to rest on top.
Early in 1914, moreover, we realized that it would be impossible to free the Saint Anna from the ice; at best, we would drift until the autumn of 1915, more than three years after we had departed Alexandrovsk.* If we stayed on board, starvation would become a real threat by January 1915, if not sooner. In the darkness of the long polar night, a struggle against hunger carries no hope of salvation. During this season, hunting is out of the question, as all animals are in hibernation. The only certainty for those trapped in its realm is that "white death" lies in wait for them.
excerpt from In the Land of White Death by John Krakauer
the cathedral, rising towards a pretty sky, in the river, the wind plays making ripples.../Uppsala, Domkyrkan reser sig stolt mot en fin himmel, vinden gör små krusningar i Fyrisån.../Uppsala, la catedral irguiéndose hacia un bonito cielo, mientras el viento juega a hacer ondas en el río...(DSC_6390-3)
The crossing tower of St Davids Cathedral seen from directly below - almost. A cliched angel perhaps, but I couldn't help myself. i am a sucker for polychrome paintwork and a cheeky bit of gilding

Shore Acres State Park is south of Coos Bay on the Oregon coast. It features 5 acres of formal gardens including a rose-testing plot and Japanese lily pond, as well as ocean views and beach access. In the cooler months, visitors can watch storms and migrating whales from the park's sandstone cliffs. Another seasonal attraction is the Shore Acres Holiday Lights, lasting from Thanksgiving to New Year's Eve, when the gardens are decorated with lights and illuminated sculptures. Shore Acres was originally an estate owned by Louis J. Simpson, a Coos County timber baron and son of shipping magnate Asa Meade Simpson. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shore_Acres_State_Park

Was a bit blue this morning, but after viewing a bit of His creation and beauty my spirits were immediately uplifted!
Strong windgusts create blowing snow at sharp mountain edges, glowing in the backlight, near Myre on Norway's Vesterålen islands. The same wind is used by a white-tailed eagle to climb higher and higher.
