  • I’ve lived here for over two years and never once reflected on that there’s a date carved in the stone wall of the underground storehouse that I have behind my house. I go past this every day but today for some reason it finally caught my eye.

  • I’m not a bird photographer even if I occasionally take pictures of birds. So it’s very rare that I go out specifically with the intention of photographing birds, but today it happened.
