My desktop wallpaper today continues this week’s theme of celebrating the wonderful Beyond The Border international storytelling festival, which happened last weekend at St Donats’ Art Centre here in South Wales. If you’ve never been, the next one will be in 2012.
I spotted this striking arrangement of leaves on the flagstones of the rose garden on Sunday, and couldn’t resist snapping it. I just loved both the colours used and the fact that some unknown person with quite an artistic eye must have sat down here and carefully put all of this together.
Another photo from the 2010 Beyond The Border tomorrow!

If you regularly drive into and out of Cardiff along the A470, you’ve probably noticed that, hidden just behind the houses to the east, is a sizeable open area. Bounded to the north by the Coryton line (the surviving stretch of the old Cardiff Railway line), and to the south / east by Rhydwaedlyd Brook stands Caedelyn Park.
The brook itself is largely fenced off (presumably because of the amount of children who play in the park), and at one point along the fence is a little slipway down into the brook. This slipway is secured by the gate shown in this photo, and its rather eye-catching green-sheathed security cable.
