“That was a memorable day to me, for it made great changes in me. But it is the same with any life. Imagine one selected day struck out of it, and think how different its course would have been. Pause you who read this, and think for a moment of the long chain of iron or gold, of thorns or flowers, that would never have bound you, but for the formation of the first link on one memorable day.”
― Charles Dickens, Great Expectations

Photo locale, Skull Creek:
I haven't been to my hometown in a very long time.
You tend to hype up what home was in relation to what it really is.
Enjoy the fact that you are going home but lower your expectations... it's not as grandiose as your mind has made it into.
When you go back, enjoy what it is, don't lament on what it was.

At the PhotoPills Camp I've had the opportunity to see a presentation by Eric Paré and Kim Henry on their light-painting work.
Later in the day (night...) I've seen it for real. And photographed it!
Although I had high expectations, I must say that reality surpassed them by far!
It was a wonderful night that will be kept in my memory (and photos!). Many thanks to Eric and Kim!

Yesterday, we had some snow less than what the forecast predicted—at least in our area. Went outdoors early in the morning to take/make some shots. It was 10 below freezing and my mittens were ineffective. I still feel the tingling at the tip of the button-pressing finger. Stay warm!
Cloudy spring day with Mimosa tree on the beach east of Larnaca, Cyprus. Out there, beyond the sea, is Africa; behind are the beach villas of the well-to-do. A penny for the thoughts of the Mimosa. 7Artisans manual lens at F8 probably; polariser used; edited in Luminar and macOS Mojave.
Bhandara is the term used mostly in Hindu caste and some other communities to describe the free meal served to the people invited to the temple. Food is cooked and served to the people sitting right outside the temple. Usually this is done on festival occasions as a part of worshipping the lord.

And put me on a train
I've got no expectations
To pass through here again..."

All the activities of the county life stop for the long cold winter. Just the rays of still cold but a bit brighter sunlight let us feel the spring is near.
Velikoretskoye village in the north of my region, a good place of local farmers and the photographers from the city.
Thank you for all the comments and faves, my friends.
Great expectations is an Elbow track, and every time i go down to the coast I've got such great expectations. Sometimes they're based on a great sky, sometimes more in hope. This was a more in hope day that just gave a few fantastic minutes. The beauty is never knowing how long these magical moments will last.
