How many hands, over how many years, built such walls? Gravity and skill alone hold those stones together and keep them standing in line. Gathered by hand from fields they surround and define, they keep in sheep and keep out those who do not belong. Centuries old, many have stood, others rebuilt, and still the craft survives to keep these landscape enhancers intact.

Daily posts on natural beauty are hard to sustain if I’m to get on with my normal writing, so I’ve opted for a weekly one. Sometimes I’ll add words. I hope you’ll continue to comment, like, and share so we spread the joy of natural beauty to as many people as possible. It just might persuade some to join the cause and fight to stop the coming climate emergency and species extinction.

More pictures in the Gallery.
Over 2100 of my images here for whatever you fancy online, or as art quality prints to decorate a room or for book covers, calendars, greetings cards, jigsaws, advertising, or whatever else you need.
The small fee helps me maintain and buy equipment and software quality digital photography demands. Everyone should be able to afford my work, I loathe the exclusivity of high prices.
