Exposed and yet enclosed.

No mountains, no woods on Inisheer island. Very few trees. Hardly any shelter. To be so exposed to the weather blowing in from the Atlantic. Everywhere, all around, tiny, stone-wall enclosed fields. Grey-bordered green patchwork with white spatters (daisies).

Wedding (blue)bells

Collecting flowers for a dear friend's wedding on mid-summer's day. Bluebells, Primroses and Daisies are her favourites. Bluebells that glow under old trees. Primroses, the first flowers of Spring. And Daisies that little girls (and some not so little) make daisy chains out of.

Add some whispering Oak leaves and acorns. All gathered together for a wedding bouquet.
