He was one of the greatest composers of the 20th century. Dmitry Shostakovich died fifty years ago today. I play an extract from his Piano Concerto No.2

This is a view from near the top of Blackdown. It is the highest point in West Sussex and the South Downs National Park. I believe the hill in the distance is Leith Hill in Surrey, the highest point on the Greensand Ridge.
The photo shows a bench in the foreground with a tree covering and an expansive view of the south western part of Surrey.

A shady spot on Blackdown to take in the view across the Surrey Hills.

In the foreground is a rusty gate. Fields of lilac coloured borage are spreading into the distance. Hedgerows and trees divide the fields. In the distance on a gentle hill the fields appear a lime green colour. The blue sky has fluffy white and grey clouds casting shadows on the fields.

This is not grown for human consumption, unfortunately. It's mainly animal feed, I think.

Well, at least the corn is ripe. Not quite as high as a elephant's eye, though.
Good morning! It's the weekend.
What are your plans?

Good morning. Last year on this day, we explored Worcester. Here's the interior of the cathedral. King John, of Magna Carta noteworthiness, is buried here.
