...because blessings can arrive disguised as a curse, their true nature revealed only later. :-)

 

The amazing "Yvonne" outfit is by Janire Van Belle (Janire Coba).

The equally amazing wings are the creation of Anouk Haiku.

The ethereal skin is by Jeanette Doobie.

The pose is by HelaMiyo ("Adoration"), who else? :-)

Blessings abound! Be still and see the blessings that surround you. Every breath, glimpses of color and light, patterns of design and beauty.

 

“Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.”

God with us.

Christ is born!

We all need those on occasion, right? I think of the people struggling just to feed their families, or overcome terrible pain and disabilities, or trying to find a way to live their dreams. I am sending this out there for anyone that feels a need for that extra boost!

A friend of mine is currently in the hospital, fighting for his life. If you have any extra room in your prayer or blessing lists, or just a hopeful thought to send his way, it would be appreciated.

We can learn to rejoice in even the smallest blessings our life holds.

I know, I know…over load on dragonfly’s but I think I would rather do this than posting one every day. I am learning a lot about shooting these guys. I make goals for every time I go out. And I hope I am getting better. Does anyone know if these guys are around all summer or…when they kind of go away? It has been fun and I think I get more exercise moving reeeeeal slow than I do walking my trail. Tee hee.

Hindu woman before the temple in Kuta - Bali

It has been a long time since I've seen one of these.

Last time I photographed one was in 2021 when we needed rain badly.

 

I wondered then if the moth would bless us with rain and it did.

 

Now I'd like to ask the Blessing Moth to ease up on the rain, storms, and humidity.

 

However, I am enjoying finding extremely interesting fungi that the rain and humid weather brings.

  

The FP Jetty has many memorial plaques on the rocks, as well as on benches. Some are simple, some contain photos and poignant words.

 

Happy Monochrome Monday

Current music playing: Arcana – La Salva de Profundis

Many times, when I see an artist playing a statue, I wonder how they can be so realistic.

However, when I saw this take in B&W, I had the opposite thought. How can this huge statue (more than 20 meters) seems to be an artist?

Dear friends, I send you my blessings for the new year, Bes ~

  

"I release all things from the past year that has caused any negative attachment.

I prepare and welcome new changes, new lessons and new adventures.

I welcome new opportunities to grow emotionally, mentally and spiritually."

Evening Aarti, Varanasi, UP, India

God's Blessings to the victims, their families and friends, here in the U.S. and around the world. Please Lord, give us the strength

to stop the violence. Let us learn love, not hate, peace not war.

Amen.

Usually, the morning shoot is over once the sun hits the far cliffs. The contrast is so large that even HDR has a hard time coping with the dynamic range. Today was no different. The sun hit the far cliffs on the horizon and even though I was bracketing with +-4 f stops, I was not getting anything that was going to be usuable. I started to pack up while I practiced speaking Canadian to the crazy guy to my right when suddenly this layer of clouds swept over and blocked the sun. We both stopped talking and started shooting, shaking our heads in amazement at our good luck!

If the day and night be such that you greet them with joy, and life emits a fragrance like flowers and sweet-scented herbs, is more elastic, more immortal - that is your success. All nature is your congratulation, and you have cause momentarily to bless yourself.

 

~ Henry David Thoreau, Walden

There are days made for wander

and laughter and wine

may your dreams take you places

through rivers that wind

If we don't count our blessings

we are wasting our time...

While traveling in Louisiana... note the fleur-de-lis.... I saw this lovely Fall roadside decoration against a fence and loved it and the words they had written... that is what this time of year means to me... being grateful for my blessings and thanking God for bringing me through the difficult times as well as the good... wishing y'all many blessings my wonderful Flickr friends... Hugs!!!

Bless me father for I love my sin...........
