"I think clouds are among the most beautiful things in the natural world - endlessly changing, variable and fascinating. Their delicate colour, often glorious and at times ominous, together with infinitely metamorphic shape and movement, lends a serene, or depending on which way the wind is blowing, a tumultuous dimension to their vaporous existence."
Peter Layton

Drop Redoubt Fort, Western Heights, from the ditch
Drop Redoubt is a fort on the Western Heights, Dover. The construction of the Redoubt was in two periods, the first being from 1804-1808 during the Napoleonic Wars, the second from 1859-1864 following the recommendations of the 1859 Royal Commission. These images are from the ditch point of view. Apparently forts have ditches, castles have moats mostly filled with water

Dusk
From Cormac McCarthy's "Border Trilogy, The Crossing" ...yet more dark and darkening still where it ran on to the east and where there was no sun and there was no dawn and when he looked again toward the north the light was drawing away faster and that noon which he'd woke was now become an alien dusk and now an alien dark and the birds that flew had lighted and all had hushed once again in the bracken by the road.
