one hundred and eighty five degrees: ‘salvation in the beauty…’
Troubles Will Be Gone ~ The Tallest Man on Earth
Seeding fields, of lupin. I fall, in love. With gumboots. And this aching, vastness. Big sky, country. Home, to sheep. And sunset. Graceful beneath, the boughs. As twilight, swoops. On angel, wings. Unveiling, a valley. Of soul bright, stars. That we might, dream. Ourselves, free. And dancing. Beyond, all boundaries. Of distance, and darkness. And existential, fear.

When it’s you I see in headlights, driving down the golden highway…

Gorgeous. Just absolutely gorgeous. And I like the photo a whole bunch, too. 😉

The light in this photo is extraordinary… love it.
It really looks like an oil painting, and deserves to be one. What a great eye you have
Really gorgeous shot. What a bonus to have them and the tree in one frame AND the scene bathed in the coppery rays of the Overburg sunlight. Now why didn’t they co-operate like that for me instead of having me chase them round the fields kicking up clouds of dust? You must be the Sheep Whisperer!
I *promise* I didn’t Bach them! But I think the trick is wearing gumboots – the sheep seem more trusting when dressed in authentic farm gear. As for the light and timing, pure luck. They stayed long enough for me to steal a photo and then ran, bleating (screaming?) for the hills. Sending so much midnight treacle Overberg starlight to shimmer above the oceans on your side. Lots of love, Bx
Wahaaaaaa! Let me guess – your magnetic personality. Aww thanks for the treacle sky. Must ahve worked ‘coz I got home late (worked late), went out to greet and feed the indulged duo and it was pretty chilly but when I looked up at the sky it was amazingly clear – an abundance of stars and I still thought “I’ve gotta learn how to photograph all that splendour”. Big love and hugs and a huge whoose of energy to keep that quill going. xxx
