I made my way around High Dune to the west to capture this view of the early sunlight on east facing dunes.
"Ever felt an angel's breath in the gentle breeze? A teardrop in the falling rain? Hear a whisper amongst the rustle of leaves? Or been kissed by a lone snowflake? Nature is an angel's favorite hiding place." - Terry Guillemets

I don't normally post 2 days in a row but after my last post I got to thinking about how wonderful this world is with creatures as small as insects to those as large as elephants. And who doesn't love ephilants! This family were gathered at a waterhole near dusk drinking together. Bit of an excerpt from GG#1 :
There is nothing like the feeling when a large parade of these wild amazing & majestic gentle giants walks around the open jeep you are sitting in while on safari in the South African bush, specifically at Sabi Sands reserve (& staying at the very appropriately named Elephants Plains Lodge). Unforgettable. They really are amazing animals!
Cheers all
The year ends with snow quietly covering the streets of Old Montreal. Quebec, Canada
“It's quiet now. So quiet that I can almost hear other people's dreams.”

If we follow the path we saw in our previous photograph and past the hill on which stands the Wesleyan Church we saw a couple of days ago, we come to this lovely spot. Just to the right of this shot is the famous Ross Bridge. But I can't think of a better place to sit down in the grass and meditate a while. It really is a perfect winter's day.
The tiniest of still life arrangements! just a few petals and and a miniature vase ... The vase is under 2" high, and the flowers about the same across.

A winter full of beautiful and vibrant colors. Never saw so many red berries before, one different from each other.
Exploring further into the Mail Rail network, this tunnel curves gently around to bring us, eventually, to the East Loop platform. The exploration down here is fascinating.
The Mail Rail tunnels were used to transport mail all around London on a network of automated underground electric trains. It opened in 1927, and only ceased service in 2003.
Nature is painting for us, day after day, pictures of infinite beauty if only we have the eyes to see them.

A pair of mourning doves has a nest somewhere in our yard. They are so timid they will wait until the smallest finch has left the pond before they will fly down for a quick bath.

"Puttin' on a brave face, I wipe the tears away with no trace
I'm okay, Mister Grey
I'm not as strong as you think
There's a hurt behind my smiling face
I say, "I'm okay"
Every saint has a past
Every sinner has a future
And I feel your pain
We all hurt the same
And I'll be there to hold you
There's nothing that I won't do
'Cause we all need a little kindness
All this cruelty is so mindless
I promise I'll be tender
So darling just surrender
I see through all your pretending
So let go 'cause I can take it on
I'll take it on (listen, baby)
Yeah, I'll be gentle..."
