I sometimes dream about ships from past times sailing in from the North Sea, some carrying cargo and passengers - others intent on war and conquest ..... |
 |
 |
On a sandbank out in the estuary, swans and gulls wait for food on the incoming tide ..... |
 |
Brightly coloured bramble and rose foliage and a few wild flowers along the coastal path ..... |

Thank you for visiting

Beautiful shots. I like that painting.
Hello!:) The painting is really beautiful,...love the composition and colours, and also the wonderful autumn colours in the leaves.
Lovely to see the swans out on the sandbanks having a paddle. Those are great shots!
The bramble leaves are among the prettiest come autumn.
Best wishes!
Such a wonderful painting, I had never seen it before, quite special. Your autumn photographs are beautiful too. Lovely glimpses of the ocean. You live near the ocean/sea and dream of ships and last night i dreamed of a bear ;-)
Hi! I hope some past ships would come to the North Sea. A few decades ago. I had did the homestay. We went to North Sea with the host family.
Your photos are very beautiful.
Snippets of fall with colors and textures - so beautiful
Stunning images with beautiful colours and so peaceful!
I loved the painting.
Hope you had a wonderful weekend :)
lovely to see water and birds. Not seen the ocean for a long time now. :(
Such beauty where you live. I've always wished to visit Scotland. To see that gorgeous/haunting landscape and castle ruins! I can't imagine...

Calm and beautiful shots.
Enjoyed seeing the blue sky and water. Art looks beautiful...
You see beauty and dreams whether you are looking out across the water or down at the ground! Thank you for showing both!
Cool painting. I can't imagine sailing that way though.
Such pretty autumn brambles, the colors are lovely.
Dear Ruby, thank you for sharing your post with Today's Flowers. That amazing painting and these amazing photos are a real treat for the eyes.
you are so romantic. that is really nice.
but remember, there were pirates too on the seas :-)
Lovely to see your beautiful photos !!

Dear Ruby - What a fascinating painting! The beautiful ship, reflections, gulls, and the spirit of exploring, etc. The North Sea seems to have such a power to make you inspire to be imaginative. I’ll become so, too. Your second photo shows it. The fall colors are simply beautiful.

That's some painting by Roerich. I wonder if he painted from his dreams, it has that kind of evocative feeling to it.
And the autumn colours are so vivid, they seem to be particularly bright this year but maybe they're like that every year. Hope you are enjoying these clear autumn days.

Hello, Ruby,
The painting by Nicholas is great. I like the bird circulating around the boat. The ocean travel must have been a great challenge, exploring and a dream. Our leaves are finally changing to red and yellow. Have a good day!
