Picture Set Of The Month - August - Summer In County Down

Pigeons flock and rest on the only pale grey roof
in a row of rooves, presumably for the coolness.

The Mountains of Mourne, from Dundrum,
which always lift me, even though I know
that they are not mountains, mostly because
they attract such variable skies/weather. 

One view from the bus stop from which to go in three
different directions, good light and odd verticals,
in reality poles for banners in support of 'King Billy'
prove more visual than what they support.
 

      Another evening's shade where the verticals 

and horizontals take on a life of their own, denying

that this is a landscape very much moulded by man. 

Clough Castle opposite the bus stop, photo taken
in June sometime after 'No Mow May' when the men
with lawn mowers stayed their hand in favour
of the insects pollenating the flowers growing wild
among the grass they so wanted to see kept tidy.
