Pentre Ifan, Pembrokeshire

Pentre Ifan in north Pembrokeshire has the largest and best preserved neolithic dolmen or burial chamber in Wales and is a very atmospheric place, especially when dark clouds are brewing....

 

 



Gateway through the triangle

This was found on a beach at Port El-Kantoui in Tunisia - I liked the way it was like a gateway to the sea!

Butterfly

As we head into autumn here is a butterfly to remind us of sunshine!

Springtime in Hereford

Walking through a park by the river in Hereford we came across these vibrantly coloured tulips and a sunbathing ladybird! It definitely felt that spring had arrived albeit for a few days only!


Squirrel in the garden

Just managed to take these photographs through the dining room window before this squirrel scampered away!

El Jem, Tunisia

Entering El Jem really makes you step back in time! Here are some shots to show the extent of the masonry and workmanship in Roman times!


The amphitheatre at El Jem, Tunisia

More Roman remains - this time we wandered around El Jem in Tunisia, the amphitheatre where part of the film "Gladiator" was filmed. These are taken through archways leading to the seating areas and down underground where the gladiators and lions would wait their turn - it was late afternoon so the light was perfect for taking photographs!
