but its lights are stronger in the contrast.'

Photochallenge: Between

 

Gate of All Nations, Persepolis, Iran

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Persia !”the current shouted, and then slowed down.

But since the paddles were lost, there was no choice but to wait...

But what for?

 

“Sometimes the current can go slow

but you'd be surprised at what flows underneath.”

the lioness whispered.

 

~ My copy of 'Creation' by Gore Vidal ~

 

 

 

The challenge this week was to capture something in the middle of two things.

Yellow extra photochallenge

 

Un soleil, une lumière que faute de mieux, je ne puis appeler que jaune, jaune soufre pâle, citron pâle or...

Que c'est beau le jaune!'

~ Vincent Van Gogh ~

(A sun, a light that for lack of anything better, I can only call yellow, pale sulphur yellow, pale golden lemon... How lovely yellow is!)



This week's assignment on The Daily Post is to  'share a photo that has a little something extra'

The Yellow Hawkweed is beautiful on its own, but this little hoverfly proves that nature holds different shades of one colour.

 

 

Photochallenge: Room ... for moor fun

 

 

There's always room for fun on the moor

'Brennan on the moor. Bold, brave and undaunted was young Brennan on the moor.'

(19^th century ballad about William Brennan, an Irish highwayman)

 

~

The road was a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor.

And the highwayman came riding... riding up to the old inn-door.'

(Alfred Noyes, The Highwayman)

 

 

The daily post weekly photochallenge: 'In this week’s photo challenge, share your take on the idea of room — it could be an actual room in your house, a favorite gallery in your local museum, a cubicle at work. You could also take this challenge in a more abstract direction, and show us where you feel like you have room — or lack it.'
