Still Life On The Run

... is what I've seen this phenomenon described as -- a serendipitous coincidence of elements that catches your eye. Found just yards from our front door, but I carried on with my walk anyway, not finding anything better than this.

Today dawned, or rather didn't, incredibly dull and grey. I woke thinking it must be 6 a.m. because it was so dark, but it was well after seven. A pale pink sun eventually struggled through low, heavy clouds at 8:15. I'm sure some of this must be down to volcanic dust, although there have also been heavy storms east of us. It did clear up to bright sun later.

I had a quiet day at home. Here is S's day -- looks lovely!
