“Were he to count a thousand, a hundred
Thousand sheep, they would all be scraggy
and stare at him with the stare
Of refugees, outraged and sullen”
Louis MacNeice (1952)

“Your beauty
shines with age
like a boat in the bay
fishing in the blaze
of a last sunset.”

Common bottlenose dolphin pod in the sound of Iona
From the #scotland series: common bottle-nosed #dolphin playing in the #soundofiona I have never lived in a place with such abundance of wilderness/wildlife. So many places where animals simply show up and are magnificent. #blueskyartshow #photography #iona
"And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.”
John Masefield (1917)
