THE MOUNTAIN

I  am posting some photos of the mountain in my back garden,we do not live on it,rather under it,on the lower slope.Some of you will have seen the photos before,but I decided to do this dedication to the mountain  to show how it changes throughout the seasons,in all it's glory. The photos are in no particular order and will enlarge if you click on them.

 Autumn red and orange.

 Winter storm blowing in.
 Summer,green
 Spring,covered in cloud.
 The blue mountain,a sure sign of rain.
 March
 February grey and black.
 The rainbow curtain,taken earlier this year.
 May,covered in Rhododendron.The mountain lake that local legend says St Patrick  banished all the snakes into.
A closer view of the Rhododendron that covers the mountain at this time of year,though these photos were taken two years ago.
Have good weekend.
Carolyn.

  4. What a splendid, quiet neighbour you've got - a mountain!
    Keep enjoying the sight of it - its changing colours and the flowers covering its slopes!
