A large, windswept veteran ash tree with gnarled branches stands in a green field behind a traditional dry stone wall, with rolling hills in the background under a bright, clear sky.

Dry Stone Walls "I love the way they ramble, reassuringly ancient, over the bare winter mountain, accentuating its stark seasonal architecture. They are innocuous but immovable, like tenacious bones of history – holding the landscape together." #drystonewall #walking #landscape #nature #birds #ponty

A solitary, ancient standing stone positioned on a desolate Cumbrian fell at the break of dawn. The lighting is cinematic and low-angled, highlighting the rough, weathered textures of lichen and deep-fissured rock. In the background, rolling misty valleys are bathed in soft indigo and gold, rendered in a sharp, hyper-realistic style that emphasizes the permanence of the stone against the fleeting morning mist.

"We trust in gods, in coin, in fleeting luck,
But they trust only in the standing stone.’*
We explore the textures of the land in *Cumbria In Verse - Lakes To Fells In Poetry*. Coming soon to a bookshelf near you.

This is next to a path I literally must use once a week, but somehow I'd not appreciated it before

A left hand holding a book in front of a garden. The garden is mostly meadow and grass and small cobble stone wall. The book is "Drystone - A life Rebuilt" from Kristie De Garis.

Dry stone walls require the skill of the builder to carefully select, shape, and arrange stones to create stable and durable walls. I have them in many places on my property. Amazing craftsmanship.

Good morning, Bluesky. Not a cloud here to mar the blue.

Today’s flower photo was taken on our anniversary last year, so around about this time. A naturalistic planting, or self-seeded and left for nature to do her thing. I like what she’s done!
Happy Friday

Photos shows a dry stone wall built of Granite blocks. Grass grows in the foregound and various plants, lichens and mosses grow in and on top of the wall.

A #notRothko typical dry stone wall built as a Devon bank. Likely to have been here for possibly hundreds of years. The skill required to build these is exceptional.

A very old stone wall - the green moss a stark contrast to the red/brown fallen leaves either side.
