Our truest life is when we are in dreams awake," said Henry David Thoreau. As a photographer we see beauty all of the time, but in the midst of the technical side of shooting, we're seeing composition, light and color. Often times we don't take enough time to stop in awe of the sheer magnificence of nature. This amazing aspen forest was near Telluride on Last Dollar Road and it was bathed in warm afternoon light. If I could go here in dreams, I would, over and over again.
What's your "in dreams awake?"
Phantom voices with no words to follow
At the mercy of the cold and hollow
I withdrew into my sanctuary of silence
My defence
In this moment I am just becoming
Liberated from my cell of nothing
No sensation there was only breathing
Overcome oblivion
Falling awake
From a walking sleep
And all that remains
Is the dying memory
And now I can dive for
these dreams I make
Like I am Falling
I am falling awake
Waves of melodies once forgotten
like a symphony across the ocean
Never knew that
they could hear my calling
deep within
crashing in
rushing in
like falling
Falling awake
From a walking sleep
And all that remains
Is the dying memory
And now I can dive for
these dreams I make
Like I am falling
I am falling awake
There is no returning to that emptiness,
loneliness
The dream that lives inside of me
won’t fade away, it’s wide awake
Falling awake
From a walking sleep
And all that remains
Is the dying memory
And now I can dive for
these dreams I make
Like I am falling
I am falling awake
[Tarja - Falling Awake]

Twisting and turning
Through the cobwebs of my mind
Darkness summons
Mid of night
Keeping in clear sight
My lantern shuffles the spooks away
As all stands at a still
The Darkness Awakes

they mourned him a minute ago. now he opens his eyes and starts talking. one friend is already made of light.
The sound of my boat didn’t wake him so I left to follow other photo ops and returned later. This time he sat up had a look, assessed the threat and laid down and when back to sleep, obviously not concerned, nap time is more important.
Here some information about the North American River Otter from NWF
These playful mammals are well adapted for semi-aquatic living. They have thick, protective fur to help them keep warm while swimming in cold waters. They have short legs, webbed feet for faster swimming, and a long, narrow body and flattened head for streamlined movement in the water. A long, strong tail (called a rudder) helps propels them through the water. They can stay underwater for as much as eight minutes. They have long whiskers which they use to detect prey in dark or cloudy water and clawed feet for grasping onto slippery prey. They are very flexible and can make sharp, sudden turns that help them catch fish. Their fur is dark brown over much of the body, and lighter brown on the belly and face. On land they can run at speeds of up to 15 miles per hour—they can slide even faster. Their playful snow and mud sliding, tail chasing, water play and snow burrowing activities also serve other purposes—they help strengthen social bonds and let young otters practice hunting techniques.

I recently fixed this camera's pressure plate that had come off. I couldn't solder it in place so I resorted to using a sewing needle with some black thread to reattach it to the spring. Seems to have worked well enough to hold the film in place.
I was surprised at how much I enjoyed using this little cheap camera. The viewfinder was the clearest, biggest and sharpest I've ever used on a point and shoot. And the lens produced some nice sharp-ish results. I will use it again for sure. The only thing is the advance motor would advance the film by two frames each time which meant I ended up with half the number of shots I could of had with another camera.

This Alligator is on the bank next to a low foot bridge crossing a small creek. He turned his head and followed me and my companion as we crossed the bridge. Both myself and my friend kept a close eye on this one and moved quickly to the bridge.
Don't break me....
