Close to the Edge

he unsettled weather yesterday made for some great hiking through the forests and up to the edges of ridges where I found this patch of bright Indian Paintbrush on a somewhat gloomy but beautifully moody day. I just finished a new blog post titled Journey to Walden Pond, Thoreau's Legacy, and Message to a Modern World. In this post I talk about both Walden as a physical place close to Concord Massachusetts, and our own internalized Walden that can be found close to home in the here and now where ever we are. I discuss my twelve takeaways from reading and rereading the book including: (1) Access to Nature is our Birthright; (2) What we Need is a Breath of Fresh Air; (3) Voluntary Simplicity; (4) Daily Practice; (5) Follow the Beat of Your Own Drummer; (6) Solitude: (7) Inward Journey; (8) Be Here Now; (9) Waking Up; (10) Follow Your Dreams; (11) Stay Grounded; and (12) Rebirth. This post is intended for a wide audience, photographers and non-photographers alike, anyone who is drawn to nature. Head on over to my blog and give it a read and let me know what you think. Here is the link. erwinbuske.photo.blog/2019/06/04/journey-to-walden-pond-t... Thanks!
