Ordinary No More
It was an ordinary night with ordinary sheep and ordinary shepherds. Then the black sky exploded with brightness. Trees that had been shadows jumped into clarity. Sheep that had been silent became a chorus of curiosity. One minute the shepherd was dead asleep, the next he was rubbing his eyes and staring into the face of an angel!
The night was ordinary no more. The angel came in the night because it’s when lights are best seen and when they are most needed. It all happened in a most remarkable moment—a moment like no other. God became a man. Divinity arrived. Heaven opened and placed her most precious one in a human womb. God had come near! In the mystery of Christmas, we find its majesty. The mystery of how God became flesh, why he chose to come at all, and how much he must love his people!
From Grace for the Moment. Max Lucado

Gostei bastante dele. Foi bem fácil a aplicação e precisou d duas camadas.

Today on Hampstead Heath playing with shadows in the low november sun the weather is cold my shadow touches the tree its all I need for inspiration. Maybe I am a tree whisperer who knows.
The light slowly fades in the sky and then from the room. Each moment slipping away to darkness and thankfully bringing the trials of the week along with it. All that is left is you and I. Us. The coolness of the sheet is offset by the warmth of our touch. Our breath deepens, our awareness is heightened. With each caress we become closer. Softly and intently becoming one. Together. With just one more touch.

The tree says to the clouds ....
I'm going through my archives, a very slow process as my time now is very fragmented. I have been hiding the more colorful side of the Hawaii from you lately. Most of the colored versions were taken with my iPhone and edited on iPhone using Instagram. It was a fun experience to compose with only the iPhone camera for most of my trip photos, in contrast to the cumbersome and convoluted process of dSLR photography with multiple single focal-length lenses. The photo taking with iPhone was more spontaneous, less deliberate, although it certainly does suffer significant quality limitation as the result of lower resolution and inability to edit on a large screen.
Akaroa harbour November 8, 2015 New Zealand.
I went over to Akaora to look at some holiday homes for sale.
These beautiful, peaceful creatures kept me mesmerized during my entire trip. There is something meditative about watching them.
The days, now, are noticeably shorter and the light is shifting, as well. While they grow here pretty much all Summer, it's the best time of the year for Zinnias. These hardy and perpetually cheerful little beauties will provide the most vibrant colors in the gardens right up til the first Fall frosts.
'We'd never know how high we are,
till we are called to rise;
and then, if we are true to plan,
our statures touch the sky.'

Monarch butterfly, Danaus plexippus
Captured in Montreal.
Wiki info: "The Monarch is the most famous migrant in the butterfly world. Its powers of migration are so great that it has been able to spread to across the Americas from Canada to Peru; across the Atlantic to Europe, Africa and India; and across the Pacific to Australia, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea."
Both In Peru and in Canada I am lucky I have found her with the same beauty.
It is a good coincidence for me the fist monarch capture was in Peru 2 years ago and it was really a beautiful one as well. flic.kr/p/KADQYA

We Are Made One with What We Touch and See
We are resolved into the supreme air,
We are made one with what we touch and see,
With our heart's blood each crimson sun is fair,
With our young lives each spring impassioned tree
Flames into green, the wildest beasts that range
The moor our kinsmen are, all life is one, and all is change.
