Life is a wonderful gift but it is not always kind. Many of us have experienced the feeling of drifting through the everyday haze of sadness, unable to see or feel beauty or our own creativity. Wandering through the fog at Peggy’s Cove one feels the serenity that can be so elusive. It feels wonderful to be back.
Thank you for your visit, kind comments, all of which I read, and favorites.

Amidst the bustle of smaller and larger sailing boats on the Italian Riviera, I saw this one, somewhat forlornly trying to keep a one-man boat going. The shot was made in Summer 2020.
Amidst the rubble, the little healer finds hope…
Let's keep building a world founded on
kindness, compassion, and love.
Let's keep lifting one another up.
Let's keep hope in our hearts as we create a brighter future.
Keep shining bright, my friends!
Amidst the great variability, in terms of colors and shapes, of blooms presented by orchids of the Dendrobium genus, those species belonging to the Callista section stand out, characterized by their showy inflorescences in the form of leafy bunches, with petals, sepals and lips in varied shades. Dendrobium chrysotoxum is a beautiful representative of this botanical section, known for its abundant blooms, composed of yellow petals and sepals, which contrast with the lip in an incredible shade of yolk orange.
The flowers are highly fragrant of honey and are short lived.
Although autumn has now well and truly given way to winter here in Melbourne, there is still a great deal of colour around if you remember to take your time, stop and smell the roses, like this dainty little pale pink beauty which I saw on poking its head out from amidst a hedge of bright red berries on a walk in early June.
The day I took this photo was a lovely and sunny day with bright blue skies: although there was a definite crispness in the air if you were out of the sun.
The Kanman Gorge of the Daiya River in Nikko, Japan is named after the final phrase in the mantra to Fudo Myoo, "the immovable wisdom king."
The most powerful of the five wisdom kings in Buddhism, Fudo Myoo is often depicted with a scowl, a sword in his right hand and a rope in his left. The sound of rushing water in cascades is believed to resemble the mantra followers chant beseeching him to use his flaming sword to clearing away obstacles and the rope to reign in their worldly desires.
Kokai, a 17th century monk and disciple of the monk in charge of constructing the world-heritage Toshogu shrine nearby, developed the walkway along this area. It has become famous for the Narabi Jizō (Jizō in a line), a line of stone statues of the Bodhisattva Jizō, protector of lost souls, children and travelers. Legend has it, the number of statues is uncountable because Jizō is a figure between the current world and heaven, his figures disappear from time to time.
Amidst the salt dunes and the marshy landscape in Kutch area of Gujarat, India, the flamingoes breed and become adults. Some adults in flight have been captured above.
It was very early morning, much before sunrise and light conditions were poor. Hence very high ISO had to be used as one had to open the lens to the maximum and the speed had to be very fast so as to capture the flying birds.

Amidst The Pines.......
Last week we packed up and headed for a local park, hiking deep into the woods.
I find that when I am surrounded by the wonderful quietness of the forest, I become acutely aware of the rustling of leaves and twigs even the flutter of little wings can draw my attention.
This shot of a small bird nestled in the pine tree along the trail was one that caught my attention.

Each year in April a charcoal burner gets invited into my hometown by local authorities. This is keeping in line with a long standing tradition of burning of wood and subsequently making charcoal in a nearby safe part of the forest.
A few years back I went to see the customary procedure in the wee hours of the morning. The charcoal burner has to get up every couple of hours to watch the process of burning. He usually sleeps in a self-built wooden shack close to mother nature´s ground. Unbekownst to me, but guessing, the fiery German Schnaps, he surely liked, made it difficult for him to wake up on time.
The moment I arrived the huge heap of wood was burning at full blast. No charcoal can be made in this manner. Important is an even carbonization at a low temperature, a die away and charring. All fluid and gaseous combustion products need detracting. So I dashed to his shack and immediately woke him up. A minute later I photographed him hastily working, whilst listening to his mumbling.
Thank you all for your constant support and love! ♥ It means the world.

The bright diffused light worked out nicely on this morning, perfect for soft and photogenic images with appealing colours.
The bright, yellow plumage of this American Goldfinch is hard to beat. The bird is instantly recognizable amidst the green leaves of summer.

Thank you very much for the visit and comment.
Just east of Nanaimo, B.C. by ferry. Surprised by the haze last Thanksgiving, but imagine it's worse this summer with the 100s of wildfires burning throughout British Columbia. In any case,the colour of the roofs & tanks pop against the blues of ocean and forests.

That I have fallen
Amidst the laughter
That surrounds me, and that sometimes
It gets too loud.”

Raging water flows downstream,

A moment of tranquil rest amidst ancient walls. A scenic framing with architectural elements and a sleeping dog, employing several visual elements.
Leading lines created by the wall and the shadow line on the ground are drawing the viewer's eye towards the minaret in the background. The dog is positioned in the foreground, creating a point of interest and adding a sense of scale and life to the otherwise static architectural scene. The minaret acts as a strong vertical element, contrasting with the horizontal lines of the wall.
The strong sunlight creates a dramatic contrast between the brightly lit wall and the deep shadow cast across the foreground. This interplay of light and shadow adds depth and texture to the scene, highlighting the rough surface of the brickwork and the texture of the ground. The dog is partially in shadow, which adds a sense of tranquility and emphasizes its relaxed posture.
The image juxtaposes the ancient architecture of a mosque with a common street dog. This contrast between the grandeur of the past and the simplicity of everyday life creates an interesting narrative. The sleeping dog suggests a peaceful and calm atmosphere, despite the potentially bustling environment outside the frame.
The dominant colors are warm earth tones from the brickwork and ground, contrasted with the clear blue sky. The dog's fur also blends with these warm tones, creating a harmonious color scheme that evokes a sense of sun-drenched warmth.
Shot from the majestic Mosque of Ibn Tulun in old Cairo. Built between 876 and 879 AD, it's known for its high walls topped with crenulations and its distinctive spiral minaret. The mosque's large compound provides a sense of majestic serenity.

This Brown Thrasher was spending most of its time rummaging around in the leaves, no doubt looking for food, and I was lucky to get a shot with its head up before it disappeared into some nearby underbrush.
