Cool photo series! You're braver than I would be, getting up that early when on holiday... but well done!
That old gate and stone walls reminds me of the part of Spain where I lived as a teenager; something very OLD and yet very peaceful about it. The bush is pretty amazing, too... I guess you can tell where the wind normally blows from!
You're right about the wind. And with a hint of fire, we got a nice sculpture. Thank you for stopping by.
I always enjoy reading your realistic and sharp comments when I stumble upon them.
