The Roman Road runs straight and bare
As the pale parting line in hair
Across the heath.
I really enjoy looking at this image at 100% because it’s clearly just mushed pixels, almost pointillistic in nature.

The traditional definition of a desert is based on a (lack of) rainfall figure – less than 250 mm (10 in.) rainfall per year. An alternative definition is a place that lacks sufficient vegetation to support human population. the English word desert comes from the Latin ‘desertum’ meaning an abandoned place.
What I liked particularly about this scene was the strip of cloud obscuring the sun. Below the cloud, the sun is casting radiant colors while above the sun is illuminating the higher clouds seemingly from below making the bottoms white and the tops grey.
I took this image from the eastern side of the Grand River, just north of the Pearl Street Bridge. I didn’t have my tripod with me so to steady the camera I braced it on the railing alongside the footpath.
