I took this shot a while back, but found it hiding among a group of photoraphs! I jusy had to give it an airing! A spire, a roof or two, and the most amazing sky. Clouds are endlessly fascinating; the vanishing point draws us ever onward and upward. The more I look at the photograph,Continue reading “Random pattern”

How often during the day do we have to make choices? Do you look at all the angles before choosing, or is it just impulsive, depending on what the choice is? I love this photograph; a signpost with no information or direction and a track that splits into two and may or may not rejoinContinue reading “Choice”

I searched for a photograph of a church and snow….this is what was served up! The church is there, it has been snowing, and it got me thinking about lonliness. I am conscious that we will each interpret this photograph from our own unique vantage point and personal challenges at this moment. There is aContinue reading “Lonliness”

‘The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.’ A snippet of conversation between Jesus and a man named Nicodemus, recorded in the Gospel of John. Nicodemus was a religious and wellContinue reading “Surprising”

‘O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you,…..,,’ The opening words of Psalm 63, and the title of this reflection. Summer seems a long way past and a long walk to summertime 2021. Yet even a simple picture of the vibrant colours of a field of lavender can lift one’s spirit and fill theContinue reading “Seeking…”

I’ve just lit our stove and it got me thinking about fire and flame and heat and to be frank, a whole lot of things, that are now swirling around in my head. The flame is both fragile and potentially destructive; gentle and roaring! Gentle flame, roaring inferno. Heat, light, fragility and comfort. Unleashed andContinue reading “Flame”

Beginnings and endings reach to the heart of our lives. Sometimes minor, other times major. Predictable, random, suprising or planned. The photograph has a vanishing point, with a helpfully marked arrow on each side and lines to keep within. All is not what it seems, because on inspection, the car seems to have stopped andContinue reading “Vanishing point…”

I have chosen this photograph because I have no idea what it is! Potentially it might be a mix of liquids of different viscocities which have been allowed to mix together. It could also be an abstract painting. You will have your own perspective and interpretation. But it got me thinking about how we seeContinue reading “Abstract”

The movement of dandelion seeds; taking the the air, moved by a gentle breeze or breath…almost imperceptible. Drifting on streams of air which will randomly carry them to a place of renewal and growth. Life can seem a little like the drifting dandelion seeds, captured in this photograph. That sense of randomness; something being doneContinue reading “Drifting…”

When I first looked at this photograph, I saw only the tree and it’s refection in the water, with the landscape behind it. It was some moments later when I realised that in the top left was the full moon! I has completely missed it because I was focussed on the tree. We may notContinue reading “Reflection…”
