History, art, architecture & adventure, to see what is over the next hill, beckons. Visiting London, Rome, Paris & an oh too brief day in Florence will be a feast of the aforementioned. Add several days with my best friend in the South West of England & maybe several days roaming more nooks & crannies of Dorset or North Wales is about to become a reality.
Since a similar journey in September 2011, photography has played a more significant role in life. Always much to learn & travelling with a camera, captures the very essence of what to others, may not be of great interest, but the content & enrichment of back streets, detail of history & architecture inscribed on the walls of buildings, art galleries overwhelming the emotions, cathedrals adorned with magnificent architecture & ancient tombs, castles steeped in mystery & mood, is what challenges the senses, lifts the spirit & enhances the soul. Subtle light, the eye will see & the lens record, gives a journey a certain magic & locks it into furthering life's experience.
It will feel good to be back once again in Britain, where I think I left half my heart. It's somewhere I always feel comfortable.
