This is probably the best time to take shots of sunrise as you do not have to wake up early. The weather is not always perfect, but I like the place. Narew River nearby Rozan bends like Colorado River ;-)

Light bends and images morph when we look through water into its mysterious world... the world of a long finned Chinese Koi.

This location is breathtaking (literally because it is cold) but I'm not sure it makes the most mind blowing photo - i always liked the place but couldn't put my finger on it until now. The way the lake bends around the mountain is what i like about this, an island mountain. There were grizzlies spotted in this area, and unfortunately we didn't get to see a grizzly all trip! But this will still remind me of this morning and the amazing fall colours (that were elsewhere in this area).

Who’s ready for fall. I recently took a drive into the mountains and some of the trees are starting to show their fall colors. I really enjoy fall colors. In this photo the twisted trees add their own character—almost as if each one has a story etched into its bends and curves. It’s the kind of scene that makes autumn here feel both fleeting and timeless.

When I step out, I step into a world that bends to my will—bold, unapologetic, and dripping with style. Meet the Ariel Jacket Set by COSMOS Apparel, my ultimate fashion power move. This ensemble isn’t just an outfit—it’s a statement, one that whispers luxury but shouts confidence.

 

The jacket? A showstopper, with 20 luxe colors that can shift my mood from edgy crimson to serene teal in an instant. I can feel the silky texture hug my frame, exuding warmth without compromising elegance. Paired with the perfectly tailored pants that elongate every stride and a sultry crop top to show just enough, the possibilities are endless. And here's the magic—every piece can stand alone, transforming my look to match the rhythm of my day.

 

COSMOS Apparel designed this with all my curves in mind—whether I’m rocking Legacy, Lara, Reborn, or GenX, it fits like it was made for me. From a casual stroll to a glammed-up soirée, I am unstoppable in Ariel.

 

Today, I'm channeling bubblegum chic in a soft pink jacket with a playful plaid lining, paired with snow-white pants that shimmer in the sunlight. The world watches, and I know I’ve set the bar.

 

This isn’t just fashion—it’s a revolution. Are you ready to wear your power? ✨

Every curve a quiet spark of summer.

Woke up early yesterday morning so decided to get up and find some morning mist. Found some beautiful mist at the Leighton River Severn S Bends.

Her Letter Left beneath a stone where the river bends

 

Dear one,

 

I do not know your name, only the way your silence felt like home.

 

We met in a clearing not marked on any map, and yet I return to it often—in thought, in breath, in the hush between heartbeats. You did not ask for anything, and still, you received everything I could not say.

 

I placed the acorn in your hand not as a gift, but as a truth. A beginning never meant to bloom in soil, but to glow in a secret chamber of your heart. I saw it then—that you would understand. That you would keep it, not out of duty, but out of reverence.

 

You were the river, and I was the leaf that paused mid-fall. I did not stay. I could not. But I remain—in the shimmer, in the ache, in the vow you never made aloud.

 

If you ever feel it pulse, know that I feel it too.

 

Yours, Autumn

 

His Reply Never sent, but always spoken in silence

 

Autumn,

 

I do not know where you are, only that you remain.

 

The acorn rests where you placed it—in the hush of my heart I did not know I carried until you named it with your silence. It has not grown in the way trees do. It has grown in me—in the warmth behind my smile, in the hush that follows joy.

 

I have walked other forests, met other seasons. But none stirred the river of my soul as you did. None left a hush in my breath. You were not a moment. You were a vow.

 

I never said goodbye. I never said anything. But I have spoken to you every day—in the way I listen, in the way I remain.

 

You are not forgotten. You are the ache that made me real.

 

Yours, Lost

On a recent hike the stipes of snow up the bendy tree trunks really caught my eye.

Happy Tree-mendous Tuesday!

Travelling the road that does never end

The future waits around the bend

Filled with hopes, love and fears

With every step, your fate it nears

As along life's road you race

Travelling from place to place

Searching for happiness, that never ends

In the future, around the bends

"SUMMER ROADS

 

There are blossoms on the hawthorn

That scent the morning breeze

And the oak and the ash and the copper beech

Are covered down with leaves

And the road is white in the morning light

As it runs down from my door

And the lark is high in the golden sky

And I'm on my way once more

 

Down Summer Roads all full of turns and bends

Summer Roads that lead to all my friends

Summer Roads by summer streams

Where I live all my winter dreams

And the good times always start down Summer Roads."

- - lyrics by Tommy Makem

 

P.S. If you view in LARGE the sense of being in the forest is enhanced.

Potomac River winding through rocky cliffs as seen from Great Falls National Park, Virginia, USA.

light bends around concrete and glass as if it were memory. outside, a couple drifts past a palm tree frozen in silhouette — but here inside, everything remains still. reflections fracture the surface, and the stairs ascend into nothing. the city is both present and distant, caught between layers of light.

Thank you very much.

I slip into the Esme Gown by Wild Fashion, and suddenly the world bends around me. This gown is unapologetically daring—its bold cut-out at the décolleté framing my curves like a sculpted work of art, while the thigh-high slit whispers of rebellion with every step I take. The Esme isn’t just a gown; it’s an attitude. A declaration.

 

The styling is sleek yet provocative, marrying the fluidity of classic eveningwear with the audacity of Avant Garde couture. The dramatic lines recall the risk-taking fashion houses of the late 1960s and 70s, when design broke from tradition and embraced architectural sensuality. Esme’s sculpted bustline and exposed midriff nod to that history—yet its modern, body-hugging silhouette ensures I look as if I’ve just walked off a Paris runway tonight. It belongs on the edge of the Avant Garde because it redefines femininity: powerful, architectural, and brazenly sensual.

 

Every detail commands attention—the pearled collar and earrings, included with the gown, elevate it with a touch of aristocratic drama, while the shimmering 25-texture HUD lets me reinvent my look endlessly. Smooth satin, sparkling add-on options, deep sultry tones, or electric brights—the HUD ensures I can be a goddess of minimalism one moment and a beacon of excess the next.
