A boisterous night. A threat of downpours today. The rowan damaged. The river in flood. #ThisIsAPictureOfWind
A chance of rain clouds. Shoulder to the oar. The harbour comes rolling in in waves. #ThisIsAPictureOfWind
A conversation. Mossy under the copper beeches. The sky conducts a dawn chorus. A spell of cloud over the twilight. #ThisIsAPictureOfWind
A chance of sun after a boisterous night. Some damp spreads over the week ahead. Six swans glide past the south quay fast. #ThisIsAPictureOfWind
A threat of dark clouds in the foreseeable future. Cormorants come to clumsy landings. Bluster and bluff. The open sea is drowning in sound. #tThisIsAPictureOfWind.
A hell of a night. A risk of claps of thunder today. The rowan have lost some branches. The river in flood. #ThisIsAPictureOfWind
A welcome sun after a sleepless night. Some shade throughout the week ahead. Evening. The rooks conversing. #ThisIsAPictureOfWind
A walk to the pub. Loamy under the elms. The sky clears. A persistent dense fog permeates the week ahead. #ThisIsAPictureOfWind
The elms rustle with scent. A listless air. A pale sun. At the river mouth, the fields impossibly green. #ThisIsAPictureOfWind
A warm sun in the valley. Lilies in a vase on the table. A season we have almost forgotten the name for. The cove cold as knowledge must be. #ThisIsAPictureOfWind.
