Blue skies, deep waters, and wind in my sails.
Storms may rise, assailing me with gales.
It doesn't matter; my task is at hand.
Once more to join the sea and forsake the land.
I leave behind the man I used to be,
The horizon now calls the man yet to be.

Tall native grasses - Toetoe - wave atop the black sand dunes of Ocean Beach, Kāwhia. It's yet another awe-inspiring sunset. These tussocks are quite tough, knowing how to bend with the winds of change (literally) along this stretch of West Coast beach.  Toetoe possess saw-like 'teeth' (the edges of the serrated leaf can cut the skin), lending to a nickname of 'cutty grass'.  

Their form, according to one website is "drooping, flowing".  And there ya have it : )

Under a vast, partly cloudy sky on this chilly morning, the tranquil sea stretches to a hazy horizon with soft ripples and white foam marking the gentle break of waves.

In the foreground is a large pond in the middle of a woodland area. At the edge of the pond are bullrushes and behind them the trees are various autumn shades of orange, yellow and green.  The trees and rushes are reflected in the still waters of the pond. There are large fluffy clouds in the sky, with just a few areas of bright blue showing through.

“In the west the gold whale sank in welters of blood.
We killed that ghost each sunset.
At dawn our hands were red and empty.
Now the Dove faltered out of the blind fist.”
George Mackay Brown (1971)

Happy Friday! We made it through the week! We had a spritzy fog this morning so here is the second place coffee shop vote-getter from Monday, taken 11 minutes before the sun broke the horizon. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

The idea is that spring marches flowers
to the windows of those who need smiles
empathy and compassion need to be the norm

Evening views of Bamburgh beach and castle from across the rocks. Partially cloudy sky gave some muted sunlight colours in the clouds

Evening stroll and dog walk at Bamburgh Beach, Northumberland. Started off relatively cloudy but the clouds started to break up a little aand give some lovely soft light in the sky across the beach and rocks. A worthwhile wander.

Beyond the tie, beyond the red, beyond the wall/s. There is no I. There is only blur, out of time, rambling rhyme/s. In that space, between lines, seldom do we understand, there is air to breathe without expectation.

Winter river. Double exposure with light flares. A frozen river curves through evergreens. Tracks are visible in the foreground.
