A Beautiful Mess
During Springtime the hills are lush with green grass this one is completely scorched.
A brood of ducklings can be seen paddling in their natural habitat
Green shoots are already starting to appear, mother nature is rapidly responding
I bet the residence of this countryside retreat are chuffed to bits, a close call.
The hillside here took a real walloping, surprisingly many trees fought off the onslaught.
Lucky escape for the olive grove, scorched are the hills behind.
Once upon a time deep into the countryside, a quiet man lived here in his humble home, I felt terribly sad to see this obliteration, now a beautiful mess.
AT&T these guys are brilliant & have their work cut out for them also perfectly happy to allow me a few moments to capture progress with the camera.The house in the background is completely gone.
Thanks everyone for all the heartfelt comments & appreciations throughout the entire series towards these dreadful images, brought to you with the highest of respect & sincere consideration to those who lost their homes and lives.
