A record of events

Rocks are records of events that took place at the time they were formed. They are books. They have a different vocabulary, a different alphabet, but you learn how to read them – John McPhee

I love this view from the beach at Vík, Iceland. Like a few jagged dragon’s teeth poking through the surface.

Red

This gorgeous red landscape is fascinating to me. I searched for quotes about ‘red’ and found the one below. I don’t know who it’s by but I love it, so thought I’d share. Some people are lost in fire. Some people are built from it. – Unknown

Like painting clouds with watercolours

A beautiful sunny day on Birka, Sweden (summer 2019). The clouds look like they were painted carefully in the sky with watercolours.
