HANWE, everybody. Tenacious ivy

Some amazing walks there :-)

Involving a lot of huff and puff when I smoked and within days of giving up I was buzzing up and down the cliffs paths like I was making up for lost time!
Thank you,Gillian!

Have a lovely Weekend dear Andy !

Thank you, Ron. You too!

Superbe image de la falaise !
Bon weekend. Amitiés

3o years thriving in adverse conditions. It is curious that you have warned of its evolution after so many years. You are a very observant person. Best wishes, Anton.

Thank you, Anton! I think I've posted about 3-4 photos of it these past dozen years or so!

That ivy is a real survivor !!

Il serait très intéressant de la voir en gros plan avec un téléobjectif ! Elle épouse bien la paroi pour ne pas tomber les jours de vent.
Bon week-end Andy.

LOVE THE VIEW !

A wonderful point of view.
I like this mood over the sea.

Das wünsche ich Dir auch! Sehr schöner Blick!

Ivy is a tough plant but I didn't expect to see it growing in such a place! The photo is really superb with this vegetal foreground and the immensity of the sea!
Have a nice day Andy******

It's why I've always looked out for it when I pass this way, which is really only about once every five years! Thank you, Nouchet!

Looks like a quite steep place you are standing!

It is, but completely safe!: thank you Stephan!

Bon WE Andy

Such a great view from up there Andy..............and I love the greenery, especially the bit where you've added the note.........it does bear a startling resemblance to a climbing figure!

A lovely sky and clouds..........and a nice calm sea too. Very well captured.

Thank you, Keith. I did hesitate before posting but then I had a re-look and saw what you saw and so went ahead!

Ivy takes a lot of shifting Andy. I guess where this one is, it doesn't really matter, but we have just pulled a load of the stuff out of a hedge! A gorgeous shot and beautiful when enlarged.
Have a good weekend.

Thank you, Rosa.
I planted one once (a variegated leaf variety - I forget the name now) to cover an uninteresting and shaded wall on the side of the house. It loved it there and in only three years I was having to peel it away from the roof!

Bien vu et bien rendue sous cet angle.
Bonne et agréable fin de semaine.

Thank you, Malik!

Have a nice weekend too, Andy !

Many thanks, Ulrich!

Yes it does look as if it's at home there. The thickness of the plant is fantastic. As ivy is quite difficult to get rid of normally - something that's been allowed to grow that length of time, it would take a motorized cutter to cut it down. This is a superb picture too - I see that it was taken just before Christmas, when we had some nice weather - today would have been rather different.

Yes, that was the last time I ws allowed to escape for an hour or so!!
Many thanks, Jenny!

Increíble la fortaleza y pujanza de esa planta de hiedra. La alternancia con algo que te ha hecho compañía durante años, sin dañarte ni molestarte, te resulta familiar y amigable.

Yes, I'm quite fond of it! Thank you, José Manuel!

Bello scorcio
Ciao, Silvy
