For a change I’ve had a busy week. I’ve just got back from a week in Royston on grandchild duties, I say a week, for two days I had business in Hove supporting my youngest son end the tenancy on a flat he’s had there for 5 years. It was a sad end of chapter for him, although he loved the area, the flat he lived in, he was the victim of an abusive relationship. It’s all good now, once he saw what it was (it’s so hard for a victim), with the help of his family who rallied round to protected him through the last 3 months, specifically his sister who gained a lodger and the return of a beloved brother. The termination of the flat was the last piece in the jigsaw, made harder by the fact the abuser was a permitted occupier who contributed nothing to cost of the flat and wouldn’t get out. After all that we had a good two days in Hove, with no domestic incidents, doing what had to be done and generally having a nice time before travelling back to Royston, I even had time to take some photos. As nasty stories go it’s always nice to have a happy ending.

The geese and ducks are gathering to spend the night at the mouth of the harbour entrance. These must be the silly one that decided to spent the winter here rather than fly yo warmer climates.

Pose - Never Ending Night from Q Poses @(The Pose Fair)
And in real life endings aren't always neat, whether they're happy endings, or whether they're sad endings.
Stephen King
Much has been said about the never ending movement of the sea so I will add my thoughts. As far as human experience goes, the movement of the sea is eternal. But...
Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore,
So do our minutes hasten to their end;
Each changing placed with that which goes before,
In sequent toil all forwards do contend.
~William Shakespeare
to our friend Murray who died today aged 52...

The actual end of a winter trail near Lake Louisa ending in “L” (no photoshop manipulation). Wonder what the message is all about?
We had just finished our tiring hike from Lake Haiyaha which was stunning, but also exhausting. This was the gorgeous sunset view we were greeted to at Dream Lake on our way back down to the trailhead. The sunset actually got even more vibrant as we were leaving, but we still got to soak it all in from the car and still make it back safely to our lodging for the night. We met a nice young g couple from out of state and got to visit with them and take in the stunning view together. It was a really lovely ending to an already amazing day. I truly am so thankful to the Lord for all of the ways He encountered us on this trip and for the abundance of beauty He showed us in His creation. I pray that this will be an encouragement to you even as you look at it. Thank you for your continued support of me on my photography journey!
The “line_up“ is a paperwork series I developed since 2010. The “liners” are made out of paper (Din A3/A4),
oil paint and graphite. The theme is the hermetical laws of polarity and movement. There is no ending and no beginning in any direction, just an endless movement. You have the possibility to arrange the papers like you want and that makes it an endless playground for my photo-work and the eyes of the viewers.

The last shot of our Arizona and California trip in the spring ended on a high note as the sun dodged the remaining clouds and gave us some beautiful sunshine as the AZER Clifton Job heads back to south siding to tie up for the day!
There are two sea stacks that together form Drangarnir. These impressive natural formations have become a symbol of the Faroe Islands’ unspoiled landscapes and untamed wilderness. To me, they conjure visions of a dragon's back, rising up from the icy waters swirling along its base. It is a haven for birdlife and a bucket list item for photographer's fortunate enough to find themselves in this Viking wonderland.
For me, it was an experience of a lifetime and the fulfillment of a bucket list dream that all began with a tiny image I saw on Instagram of a grass roofed cottage. What an incredible privilege to photograph the immense Drangarnir sea stacks (the smaller one rises out of the ocean to a height of over 200 '), probably one of the most iconic formations of the Faroe Islands.
Unfortunately, it is also one of the more harrowing places to get to. If I wasn’t grey already, that day would have done it in spades. Thank God for great travel partners, and our gifted leader, Thomas Vikre, who guided us through the gauntlet of eel-slippery rocks, steep slopes ending abruptly into the North Atlantic, and high tides bouncing our Zodiac around like a ping pong ball. Honestly, I would have turned back each time if given a choice. I have no desire to “prove” myself, or conquer fears at this point in my life, but it was a one way street, so no way to turn back. And in the end, I am glad for that. The beauty and majesty of the place is really indescribable, and to stand in the midst of it was truly an “epic” 😉 experience for us all.
