In the Shadow...

...of Raw power & energy.
Makes you think, Why do we bother! One day we will think of a better way but for just now it does add foreground to the Sunset.

Only bird seen today was a Kittiwake cavorting, really, that was the only word to describe the way it was bouncing around in the high winds today.
