"GLORY be to God for dappled things—
|
For skies of couple-colour as a brinded cow;
|
For rose-moles all in stipple upon trout that swim;
|
Fresh-firecoal chestnut-falls; finches’ wings;
|
Landscape plotted and pieced—fold, fallow, and plough;
|
And áll trádes, their gear and tackle and trim.
|
All things counter, original, spare, strange;
|
Whatever is fickle, freckled (who knows how?)
|
With swift, slow; sweet, sour; adazzle, dim;
|
He fathers-forth whose beauty is past change:
|
Praise him'
-Gerard Manley Hopkins-

Lovely! That top one is almost like an optical illusion!
Love the pairing of the poetry of G.M.Hopkins with your photography.
Both beautiful.
