Beauty at Dawn

 
It's the stuff of legend when the inky night-sky lightens through shades of grey at break of day, a perfect moment for quiet contemplation.
 This morning we crunched along between skeletal trees on a carpet of fallen leaves; as the darkness vaporised we spied our neighbour, a Shetland pony, on the horizon. A vision of unbridled joy, she cantered along the boundary inviting Isis to join in her morning frolic.  Their interaction was perfectly choreographed.  Sometimes a single moment provides perspective for the day ahead.
