On our way to Mt. Rainier, we saw spectacular scenery like glaciers, meadows, forests and cliffs. The Park is a beautiful mixture of rainforest with ferns and moss growing on everything. Once we reached a certain level in the mountains it began to rain, however the rain did not stopped me from taking several pictures along our way.

 

Thank you for your comments.

GÉNÉRATION

 

En hommage à Florence, ma petite-fille, qui m’a spontanément proposé le titre de cette image.

__________

 

Sur ces rivages bordés d’infini, un père initie son jeune fils à l’art de la pêche en eau peu profonde. Au premier abord, on pourrait croire qu’il s’agit d’une simple scène de pêche, pourtant…

 

Dans nos sociétés, l’idée de génération est souvent réduite à une opposition statique entre le passé et l’avenir, entre l’ancien et le nouveau. Je crois plutôt qu’il faut y voir un mouvement, un mouvement continu de transmission et d’évolution des connaissances et des mentalités humaines. En somme, cette transmission, notamment par la filiation, permets à l’originel de rester original et de poursuivre l’aventure humaine. * Ce que nous appelons « l’avenir » est, en fait, le résultat de l’interaction et de la transmission par toutes les générations. **

_________

Ici, sur ces rivages bien en retrait des mondes utopiques qui alimentent la fureur de nos sociétés, le père et le fils renouent avec la patience et la modestie fondamentale de l’existence des êtres. Et aussi avec l’enchantement originel devant la beauté et le mystère de notre monde.

 

La pêche aura été un bon prétexte pour cela.

GENERATION

 

In honor of Florence, my granddaughter, who spontaneously suggested the title of this image.

__________

 

On these shores bordered by infinity, a father introduces his young son to the art of shallow-water fishing. At first glance, one might think this is a simple fishing scene, yet...

 

In our societies, the idea of generation is often reduced to a static opposition between past and future, between old and new. Instead, it should be seen as a movement, a continuous movement of transfer and evolution of knowledge and human mentalities. In short, this transfer, particularly through filiations (kinship), allows the original to remain original and to continue the human adventure.* What we call the future is, in fact, the result of all these generations interacting.

._________

 

Here, on these shores far removed from the utopian worlds that fuel the fury of our societies, father and son reconnect with the patience and fundamental modesty of being. Also with the original enchantment in front of the beauty and mystery of our world.

 

Fishing was a good excuse for this.

Quite a difference to the Busan night street shots I posted a couple of weeks before.

It felt like this Red Winged Blackbird was leading the way as I walked along this boardwalk ... he kept just ahead of me hopping and bouncing along the fence.

Happy Fence Friday!

Yes it's Hugo again.

For some reason Hugo would chew leaves and then rub it on his neck as you can see from the picture.

Follow the path! (Taken at LeLoo's World)
