In Connemara, Ireland, peat is still a fairly common fuel source. These bricks have been cut from the ground and left to dry out. Sometimes we saw them in neat little pyramids or piles, but I rather liked the chaos of this cluster.
The ruins of Ballycarbery castle in Cahersiveen, Ireland show how nature and time can turn even neat stacks of stones in wilderness.
You can find more chaos at the original Lens-Artist challenge.
Love nature’s own chaos – beautiful take on this.

A very unique choice for the challenge, Mei-Mei. Great idea. The peat bricks have been used for centuries, I believe. I’ve never seen them burn. I wonder what type of heat they generate? Is it very hot and intense or a slow burn? Umm….
