Happy Macro Monday everybody ;-))
2020 marks the beginning of a new decade. Was so happy to find this Barred Owl the day after Christmas. Looking forward to another great year.
" The whole world's broke and it ain't worth fixing
It's time to start all over, make a new beginning
There's too much pain, too much suffering
Let's resolve to start all over make a new beginning
Now don't get me wrong I love life and living
But when you wake up and look around at everything that's going down
All wrong
You see we need to change it now, this world with too few happy endings
We can resolve to start all over make a new beginning
Start all over
Start all over
Start all over
Start all over
The world is broken into fragments and pieces
That once were joined together in a unified whole
But now too many stand alone There's too much separation
We can resolve to come together in the new beginning
Start all over
Start all over
Start all over
Start all over
We can break the cycle - We can break the chain
We can start all over - In the new beginning
We can learn, we can teach
We can share the myths the dream the prayer
The notion that we can do better
Change our lives and paths
Create a new world
And Start all over
Start all over
Start all over
Start all over
The whole world's broke and it ain't worth fixing
It's time to start all over, make a new beginning
There's too much fighting, too little understanding
It's time to stop and start all over
Make a new beginning ... "

This was shot looking back from the end of a dead-end road. Sometimes it pays to take those roads seldom taken.

""Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.""

~~The beginning of a new dune:
A dune is a mound of sand formed by the wind, usually along the beach or in a desert. Dunes form when wind blows sand into a sheltered area behind an obstacle. Dunes grow as grains of sand accumulate.
Every dune has a windward side and a slipface. A dunes windward side is the side where the wind is blowing and pushing material up. A dunes slip face is simply the side without wind. A slipface is usually smoother than a dunes windward side.~~

This was not the beginning of the sunrise sequence but it just before the mist and the fog began to burn away! This was in the sequence that I posted some time ago called Lake Eerie! This was my favorite moment of the entire morning! Hope everyone has a wonderful week ahead! Taken on Armand bayou in the vicinity of Bay Area Park!

Wild horses in the morning
They do belong to somebody, but are left to roam the mountains by themselves. Taken last year, I must return to this place.

Many viewers have commented that The Guardian Building (originally The Union Trust Company Building) reminded them of a church.
This picture shows approximately half of the bank lobby on the main floor. Imagine the original bank building with 60-90 bank teller cages lining the entire length of both sides of this "nave". The ceiling was composed of a 3/4 inch (1.9cm) of horsehair and coated with a layer of plaster cement. Then, a canvas layer was applied, and painted with designs reminiscent of the patterns of Navajo rugs. This was a sound-deadening system.
The "altar piece" ( I suppose) was the three-story mural of the map of the lower peninsula of Michigan. Highlighted were the major Michigan moneymakers of the1890s to 1920s: mining, manufacturing, lumber, fishing, commerce, and agriculture. It was completed in 1929, unfortunately the year of the beginning of "The Great Depression".
This superbly decorated Art-Deco bank building was nicknamed "The Cathedral of Finance." So, if the earlier pictures reminded you of a church (reprised in the first comment below) --you were very observant : -)
"Aprils have never meant much to me, autumns seem that season of beginning, spring." - Truman Capote
Second chances don't come every day,
Second chances can be rare in every way,
Second chances are worth the leap of faith,
Second chances are here; don't delay!
The book of Ezra tells us that God indeed grants second chances to those who trust and obey.
I went exploring this day around my new home. I found new hope in every detail. I hope you carry hope with you as well and look for it with your heart instead of your eyes.
Happy Friday Flickr Friends! Thank you for your kind favs and comments. They are much appreciated.

It's the coldest beginning of spring ever since the start of weather records in 1881 here.

So often it feels that something is ending as we cling to loved ones and cherished times. For others, the same moment comes as a new beginning whether it be filled with anticipation or anxiety. Lost in the entangled regrets, memories, dreams and fears is that only the present is tangible and available now.
