I start my day with the Lord, reading His word and also reading several devotional books and then time on my knees in prayer. Amazing how wonderful the day is after this! This is a small silver like (not a true metal) cross that was once a necklace. It measures one inch tall and less than a half inch wide. It was sitting on a green sticky note and I was shining a small flashlight on it. I have no idea where the red came from, but it seemed fitting so I kept it! :-)
in the reflection of a red café window, a fleeting stage unfolds—faces stare from posters, a woman strides mid-step, chairs dissolve into the street like memories fading into glass. inside and outside blur, as if the city were trying to remember itself.

{Seasons 2019} My diary
No hay nada como lavarse la cara con un poco de agua fresquita por la mañana para acabar de despertarse, especialmente si te pasa como a mí y te cuesta dar el salto de la cama. ¡Cómo envidio a todas aquellas personas que son capaces de levantarse sin problemas cuando suena el despertador!
It was so lovely to photography the daily routine of a working station and the extra bonus was the fog. Olga
captured in the heart of pere garau, palma’s most eclectic barrio, this image dives into a rhythm of scissors and pride. the americana cape flutters like a soft flag of identity, while the focused barber crafts routine into ritual. pere garau isn’t just a neighborhood—it’s a mosaic of textures, languages, and trades. in this barber shop, surrounded by portraits of men past and present, there’s a quiet poetry in repetition.
In this candid moment, a young boy is captured studying between the morning prayers and breakfast at Chorten Ningpo Monastery in Punakha, Bhutan. In an effort to alleviate their families' burdens, impoverished boys willingly enter monastic life. These monasteries provide essential provisions and foster spiritual growth, securing their future. Typically, children in Bhutan enter the monastery around the ages of six to eight, sacrificing a conventional childhood for a life of unwavering devotion and hope - Chorten Ningpo Monastery, Punakha, Bhutan

breakfast I squeeze oat to flakes and add some fresh fruit (today: quince,
blueberry, banana, grapes). HMM
in a city that never pauses, this moment in barcelona feels like a circuit break from the everyday current. surrounded by charger cables, plastic cases, and prepaid promises, a man sits like time doesn’t apply. his gaze is lost in the screen, while outside the glass the city keeps moving. but inside, it’s another rhythm—slower, quieter. the light isn’t from the sun but from backlit displays. the scene is cramped and cluttered, yet it radiates calm. in the capital of speed, there’s still space to drift.
I don’t need big adventures.
I need morning routines and memories and a little bit of familiarity in the unknown. I need slow moments and tea and comfortable clothes. I need time to think and grasp and to be alone as much as shared moments by the fire.
I don’t need big adventures. I just need all of the little things.
I recently spent a week in the Auvergne in France and it was one of my favourite holidays I’ve been on. The people I was with were easygoing, everyone did their own thing every now and then, the countryside made me feel so calm, and I especially enjoyed all the little moments and daily routines.
Humans foolishly attempt to capture and design there lives replacing the immediate experience with photoshopped digital traces. What is more important is what is cropped out of the picture. In this case brutal, wild, yet gentle infinite power of the nature. Reimagining the vanitas genre.
This "reflects" where my daily routine starts and ends every day. (The reflection is in the 3/4" knob on the toilet paper holder.)
A Via San Donato, no coração do centro histórico de Génova, destaca-se como uma artéria medieval emblemática, marcada pela presença da Igreja de São Donato, um exemplar da arquitetura românica do século XII. A fachada da igreja possui um portal em arco decorado com colunas esculpidas e uma rosácea, representando a influência do estilo ligur. Circundada pelos característicos 'caruggi', estreitos becos ladeados por edifícios altos com persianas verdes, a via reflete a densidade urbana e a história da antiga República Marítima. O pavimento em lajes irregulares, legado do passado, preserva a estrutura medieval, ideal para sombra e escoamento de águas. Estabelecimentos comerciais junto às habitações sublinham a vitalidade contemporânea deste espaço, que, classificado como Património Mundial da UNESCO, enfrenta desafios de conservação. A coexistência de património religioso e atividade comercial evidenciam a continuidade de vida nesta área, um testemunho da riqueza histórica e cultural de Génova.
Via San Donato, in the heart of Genoa's historic center, stands out as an emblematic medieval thoroughfare, marked by the presence of the Church of San Donato, an example of 12th-century Romanesque architecture. The church's façade features an arched portal decorated with carved columns and a rose window, representing the influence of the Ligurian style. Surrounded by the characteristic caruggi, narrow alleys lined with tall buildings with green shutters, the street reflects the urban density and history of the ancient Maritime Republic. The uneven flagstone pavement, a legacy of the past, preserves the medieval structure, ideal for shade and water drainage. Commercial establishments alongside residential buildings underscore the contemporary vitality of this space, which, classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, faces conservation challenges. The coexistence of religious heritage and commercial activity highlights the continuity of life in this area, a testament to Genoa's historical and cultural wealth.
In the floating villages of Tonlé Sap, the water isn’t just a place to fish—it’s a home, a road, and a way of life. While the stilt houses tower above, adapting to the lake’s rising and falling waters, small boats like this one are essential for daily routines—whether it's fishing, trading, or simply getting around.
It’s a world where life flows with the rhythm of the water, and every journey, no matter how small, is part of the lake’s ever-changing story.
Bhaktapur is a city where time seemed to have stood still. The 2015 earthquake caused extensive damage to the historic structures, including temples and traditional Newari buildings. Even the renowned Bhaktapur Durbar Square, a major tourist attraction, suffered substantial destruction. The lives of the local residents were deeply affected, with loss of life, injuries, and displacement being the tragic outcomes. The cultural and economic facets of the city were also heavily influenced, as tourism played a crucial role in Bhaktapur's income. When we were there in April 2023, we were impressed by the progress that has been made to restore and rebuild all damaged structures. As we ventured through the winding narrow streets that guided us towards the famous square, we were just like in Lalitpur and Kathmandu impressed by the intricate carvings adorning the wooden buildings and the vibrant energy of local life. I tried to capture some candid street shots, freezing fleeting moments in time that revealed the very soul of this extraordinary place – Bhaktapur, Nepal
Macro Mondays Theme: (Part of) My Daily Routine
Part of my daily routine is reading books before bed. Before children I used to read a lot but this went by the wayside after having them as I was just too tired, especially the twins! As the children got older it took me longer to get to sleep. However my husband would be out like a light when his head hit the pillow and then start snoring. There was I struggling to sleep with the noise!! It took me a while to realise that if I started to read right before bed again that I would be more relaxed and ready for sleep. So now this is my daily routine so that I manage to get to sleep before him so the snoring doesn't bother me!! My other routine captured in the photo is in the background. I'm a stay at home mum so I wanted to keep my mind active with free brain games on Lumosity. What I like is there are only 3 a day to play so it doesn't take long, but it's definitely benefited my memory and attention.
Looking forward to seeing and reading about your daily routines. HMM to one and all and appreciate all your comments and favourites.
Daily Routine #5
Tried to capture myself taking a picture in this sculpture across from the Convention Center.
the groomer works with a calm, practiced ease, his colorful apron catching the soft light while the dark curls of the dog settle beneath his hands. the room glows with gentle turquoise tones, turning this small act of care into a warm fragment of everyday craft and character.
In Bhutan, young boys from poor families become monks to alleviate their families' burdens. Joining a monastery provides them with food, education, and healthcare, while securing their future and spiritual growth. However, their decision means sacrificing a typical childhood filled with play and enjoyment. Yet, their unwavering devotion and hope for a better future keep them committed to monastic life. As a photographer, I was granted permission to capture images of young monks at Paro Dzong, the administrative seat of Paro district in Bhutan. I spent a morning documenting their daily routines. To express my gratitude for their cooperation, I offered the young monks juices and sweets. Witnessing the joy that such a small gesture brought to these disciplined individuals living rigorous lives was truly heartwarming - Paro Dzong, Paro, Bhutan.
In April, as I wandered through downtown Bhaktapur, I was captivated by the lively street scenes. The ancient temples stood as majestic landmarks, surrounded by intricately designed Newari-style buildings. The air resonated with the sounds of craftsmen, street performers, and the enticing aroma of local street food. Each photo I captured became a cherished glimpse into the vibrant street life of Bhaktapur, where tradition intertwines seamlessly with the rhythm of daily life – Bhaktapur, Nepal
“Then came the moment, after it was fully set, that my boyfriend interrupted my reading to say something to me and I tried to look up to look at him. Because I had the mask applied to my neck and my face, and then had my head tilted down somewhat whilst I was reading, it had set solid, and it really is this tight I'm not exaggerating, so that when I tried to lift my head after it setting, I couldn't move it. My neck/head were set at that angle and no matter what I couldn't budge my head up which meant moving my whole body in order to look at anything for the remainder of time it was on. Again, this wasn't really a big problem, but something I felt was worth mentioning…
I quite liked how tight it felt, and how it had frozen my head solid, because I figured it must be really doing something…”

This shot was taken a while back. And no, she’s not skinnin’ potatoes in the kitchen…that would be a massive improbability! :)
