In silent shadows
Perfect serenity waits
Open to the light
Earth reflects heaven’s canvas
Beyond it we see our selves

The photo for this week’s prompt was taken a few years ago in Cumbria, in the Lake District, when my son had taken himself north for an early foray into independence with his wheelchair. I met Nick there and, leaving the wheelchair at the hotel, drove him through the hills and passes of a wintry landscape, stopping…or so it seemed… in every lay-by for the pair of us to take pictures. Some of those photos remain amongst my favourites.
My son, whose memory of earlier times has large gaps in it since the attack that left him with the effects of brain injury to surmount, had forgotten why I love the northern landscape so much. ‘Now I know what heaven looks like,’ he said.
