the code, lines and gathering

Elderberries are free around here. You simply walk up the hill and there they are, ripe and dripping off the trees along the old railway line. There is not much that can be had for free these days. I wash them, freeze them and make a most delicious elderberry crumble.

Inspired by the BBC's programme The Code and Tim Ingold's book Lines, I now see repetitive natural patterns and lines everywhere. Threads, traces, rods everywhere.
