William Wordsworth's poem, commonly known as ‘Daffodils' was first written in 1804 and revised in 1815.
It's the opening lines that inspired my title for today's photo. If you don't know, ‘Daffodils' starts with the lines:
‘I wandered lonely as a Cloud
That floats on high o'er Vales and Hills…'
This image, taken in Western libya in 1990, is a far cry from Ullswater in 1804 England, and there are no daffodils in sight, but the lonely cloud, the Vales and Hills are all represented.
I'm up on top of the hard rock layer you can see capping the jebels in the distance. The land between has eroded over the millennia.
In the mid-ground of the photo you see the sandy base of an occasional water course, dotted with bushes indicating the presence of water. In the distance you can see ribbons of sand where rainwater feeds into this occasional water course.
I never saw it wet but you can see from the channels in the sand that sometimes the flow has been quite strong.
