Window through the Storm Clouds.

This morning the storm clouds were exceptionally beautiful, and occasionally shafts of sunlight on the hillside opposite on my walk.

I had just been to visit an old friend who has become quite handicapped very suddenly and realised that I should start to capture some of these moments especially for her. Having lived in Switzerland for over 40 years, she might have to go to live closer to her family in England soon. Tonight she rang, having fallen over and hit her head quite badly. This sudden change from total independence to dependence is so difficult for her. How we must appreciate our relative fitness, good health and eyesight to blip every day.

Large mountains are always more imposing.
