The Stream, Flowing Water Over Rocks

The little stream, of no particular renown, continues tumbling down the slope towards the sea as it has done for thousands of years.

Here, in the shaded valley carved over time by the action of water continuously flowing and falling, we find lots of mosses, lichens and bryophytes.

Often we look at places like this and think there is not much life to be found here in winter but the quiet life cycle and splash of green on rocks and in crevices, on trees too, makes the scene all the more enjoyable both for the photographer and those seeking quiet contemplation.
