Shorelines never fail to take me out of myself.

All the different, subtle differences in colour and tones and such a contrast to yesterday's post. The azalea foliage was full of shading but a completely different colour palette. Do you find they provoke a different response from you, Freda?

Well they all fascinate, but perhaps the shore is more relaxing as I am not responsible for it in the way I am with my garden!

These images have put me in mid of Jen Hadfield a poet who lives on Shetland. I only found out about her in the last week. I think you will recognise what she's writing about in Daed- traa (the slack of the tide) and the Scottish storm she describes in Blashey-Wadder. If you don't want to look at these poems, please look at Paternoster. It's a prayer, based on the Lord's prayer, but put into the mouth of a hard-worked draught horse and is one of the most touching poems I've read for a while, not in the least sentimental or mawkish. Even as a mere Sassenach I get the gist of the Shetland dialect words she includes. Thanks for the lovely pictures.
