In Minnesota we are all very used to winter, and we all have that moment when we realize it is finally here and here to stay. Not many days after I took this photo, the North Shore received another 20" of fresh snow. It truly is a winter wonderland up there right now! Sometimes it feels like time just keeps flying by, we are near the end of another year and another year closer to the end. Sometimes when the seasons change it can feel easy to get lost in time or even lost in life. What is the meaning? What is the purpose? Another year is ending only to be replaced by another one coming. If we chose to look at life like this it can feel so shallow. We were made for more than to watch the sun rise and set day after day and with the years pass by. There is more to life than this. We are created for something more. We are called for something so much greater!

Adult Bald Eagle flying towards me to go check out the Common Mergansers fishing for an easy meal. The Eagles steal the fish the Merganser's catch. Peace Valley Park, New Britain PA.
RKO_5529. Approaching vulture! After the lions left the kill it was great fun to wait for the incoming vultures. A nice challenge to get some good flight shots as many times it was unpredictable how/from what side they would come in.

At the cliff of the Island Helgoland we were watching a breeding colony of Northern Gannets. We love that place and return nearly every year, never become tired of watching and photographing these elegant birds raising their chicks there.

On the 1st September in Scotland we headed into meteorological autumn and we all know that not too far behind that winter comes. I cannot wait to get out on the mountains and get some interesting shots with the help of the weather.
Rubjerg Knude Lighthouse is on the coast of the North Sea in Rubjerg on the top of Lønstrup Klint (cliff). Shifting sands and coastal erosion are a serious problem in the area. The lighthouse ceased operating on 1 August 1968. It was expected that the tower would fall into the sea by 2023; however, on 22 October 2019 the 23 metres (75 ft) high lighthouse, weighing 720 tonnes, was moved 70 m (230 ft) inland on specially built rails.
When I glaze upon this surreal image I feel a yearning in my heart. A place where one would love to come home to. A simpler life surrounded by nature slowly unfolding her magic around you. You can just imagine walking down the gravel road smelling deeply the green grass and that special smell that only a freshly cut field can give off.

‘Sakura’ is the generic term of genus Cerasus (or Prunus subg. Cerasus). There are a lot of wild species and cultivars in the genus. The photo is of this season’s first bloom of ‘Beni-shidare’, a weeping variation of ‘Edo-higan’ (Cerasus itosakura), which is one of wild species Sakura native to Japan. This year, Sakura in this region has started blooming almost two weeks earlier than usual.
