A Simple Holiday

It’s summer – well, here in Europe it is anyway – and our thoughts turn to holidays. So when Philo of Philosophy through Photography fame threw down the challenge to celebrate Simplicity for Lens-Artists Challenge #257, I thought I’d leaf through my holiday albums and see what I could find.

Let’s go to the beach first, in Alnmouth Northumberland.

And then back to Yorkshire, to Wharfedale, where water coursing down the limestone slopes has formed this dramatically undulating landscape.

Let’s stay in Yorkshire, for harvest time at Sutton Bank.

Still, we can’t stay in England forever. Let’s catch a ferry across the North Sea.

We’ll nip across to Valencia, to l’Albufera: send a postcard as the header photo, before going south to Cádiz …

 … and all the way over to Greece …

… before coming back to England ..

…where poppies blow …

… and the fog descends…

Holiday well and truly over, I think.
