Cloudy mountains

View across flat grassy fields. In the background a low bank of cloud bears a remarkable resemblance to distant mountains

I went out for a walk this afternoon, climbing from sea level, or just below, to the heady height of about twenty metres above. When I came down again I could almost believe that we had a range of hills the far side of the fen.

I also saw a spectacular shadow and several good dogs, of whom one is featured here:

A large bare chestnut tree casts a huge shadow across the entire gable end wall of a large house. In the foreground, a dog crouches on the grass.
