Photography

The ruins of Tintern Abbey, a twelfth century Cistercian monastery. An empty station in evening light. Cardiff Bay. Silhouette. Land and sea. To the lighthouse. Bouquet. Portrait. Sand and sea. Intricacies. On the coast. Sacred. Landscape. Fossil. Green. Up early. We take a train to Barry and browse the cafés, juice bars, and boutique stores of Goodsheds; then, on to Jackson Bay for a swim. A boat trip from Cardiff Bay to Flat Holm Island, where Saint Cadoc was known to spend the Lenten season. Now, it is a nature reserve populated by gulls and colourful wild leeks. Blazing heat. We sit in the shadow of the lighthouse and watch the flights of butterflies — and two peregrine falcons. A quiet and contemplative day. Pathways. Flight. Sky. Sky. Bright coastal paths. Evening light. Across the river. Evening. A Time to Keep Silence. Flight. Canopy. Early morning. Light.
