Wuthering Heights Weather.
For me, the joy of this photograh is not the weather it shows arriving, rather being able to capture it at all.
I had given up trying to snap lightening – that’s advanced stuff to me…
so the joire de vivre came from the sense of accomplishment, after the delight of looking and actually ‘seeing’. The little patch of blue is a reminder that just as before, beyond storms there will be better days.
Scroll down for the cute sms that came through.
I received a text message from an Aussie friend in Abu Dahbi:
‘Just saw camels while on the way to the office. Ha’
