I’m a fan of rapeseed

065 rape a

I’m not sure whether I am in favour of the proliferation of rape seed fields all over the country, some grown for being made into oil but the majority made into petrol.  I am also not in favour of the yellow muck that descends on cars and windows during its flowering time.  But I can’t help being fan of the strips of yellow in the rural landscape, of the yellow fields and of the delicate little flowers.

One, two, three, … many!

Counting chimneys in Mainz.

2005 chimney c

What’s the collective noun for chimneys?  A smoke of chimneys?  I know that the collective noun for chimney sweeps is sweepdom.

2005 chimney e

I found counting chimneys much more fascinating in England and Scotland, here in Edinburgh.

2005 chimney d

How many do you count?

2005 chimney f

To counterbalance all these huddles of chimneys here is an impressive solitary one.

And what would a post about chimneys be without at least one sweep.

While the plain to the west was all foggy yesterday and the light never penetrated the clouds properly, there were crisp blue skies and sunshine galore in the hills to the east and I took my camera and went for a walk.
