"The Past: A Journey Through Time and Wonder" Step into the depths of history as we explore the captivating remnants of our ancient world. From the enigmatic Lascaux cave paintings in Bordeaux, France, depicting bulls and horses with intricate detail, to the awe-inspiring ramparts of a prehistoric hill fort on Hambledon Hill above the Blackmore Vale. Nature's own masterpiece takes center stage as we witness the ethereal beauty of an Aurora Borealis dancing over Sycamore Gap along Hadrian's Wall in Northumberland, England. The sky ablaze with vibrant colors, reminding us of the timeless wonders that grace our planet. In London's urban cemetery, ring-necked parakeets soar through the air on their way to roost, a mesmerizing sight captured by a finalist in the prestigious Wildlife Photographer of Year Awards 2014. These magnificent creatures bring life to even the most unexpected corners of our bustling cities. Journeying across continents and cultures, we find ourselves transported to Peru's majestic Andes mountains where ancient civilizations once thrived. Their legacy lives on through crumbling ruins that whisper tales from centuries past. Timekeeping devices like sundials stand as silent witnesses to human ingenuity throughout history. Perran Sands in Cornwall and Caernarfon Castle in Wales bear witness to this remarkable feat while Chimayo in New Mexico holds its own as America's holy Santuario - a place reminiscent of Lourdes' spiritual embrace. The petrified forest at Borth Beach stands frozen in time; trees turned into stone tell stories stretching back millions of years. Meanwhile, Pont du Gard Roman aqueduct stands tall as a testament to engineering brilliance near Nimes, France – an architectural marvel connecting past and present.
