A lone tree clings to the hillside in the Yorkshire Dales near Settle. Despite the thin soil, rock ground and the exposed conditions it flourishes amongst the rocks. It might be small but it has the heart of an oak.

Thornton Force in the Yorkshire Dales. We've not had any rain for eight weeks now since this picture was taken. I suspect there is far less water flowing over it now.

As we continued on up the River Twiss we came to the Pecca Falls tumbling through a steep, wooded ravine. Doesn't falling water make a lovely sound?

In my travels I have visited two places that call themselves "God's Country." One is Kerala in Southern India and the other is here In Yorkshire, UK. They are very different but I reckon that they both have a legitimate claim to the title,

Between a Rock and a Hard Place

I find the high moors fascinating places not just for the natural beauty and weird rock formations but also because, many years ago, they were a hive of industry, principally mining or quarrying. This was taken on Bodmin Moor in Cornwall, close to the hamlet of St. Breward. As well the moorland scenery it shows a cheesewring which although resembling a man made object is actually a perfectly natural rock formation created by erosion. Close by can be seen the remains of an old mining building which overlooked an open cast mine where, probably, tin or copper would have been extracted. It is likely that the miners walked several miles to and from their homes to this mine in all weathers. I visited on a fine day but it was still a bleak and windy place. Truly, those miners worked between a rock and a hard place.

Thanks to Alice Popkorn for the use and abuse of her texture "Magic Veil".

The news about Ipernity is looking good Let's hope the deal can be closed without further delay.
