Spring promises far more gentle blizzards of snow...that the one we've been experiencing this past 24 hours. Almost everyone escaped with far less snow than originally forecast - but the eastern part of the state, as well as the Cape and islands here in Massachusetts are still in the midst of it.

Another Yellow-billed Spoonbill that visted Braeside wetlands at the end of this summer after the water levels dropped. It came within a larger flock of Royal Spoonbills. Together they were foraging in a shallow pond,

...offer the morning glory as a symbol to a person who needs some tenacity to go after their dreams. Morning glories take each twist and turn in the road (or on the trellis!) in their stride and just keep on going. This is the key to their success....

Taking my new Fujifilm X-T20 out for a test spin, the flip screen helped here!

The early morning sun gently awakes and bathes an old, unused barn. In our elder years, it is important to have a purpose when we awaken each day, otherwise the day becomes simply a march to the End.

Is this the calm before the storm? Gentle waves breaking on the rocks at sunset at Hunstanton.

The gentle arch of a wildflower as a lovely Swallowtail lands on it. Happy Wings Wednesday!

We all need more than this to be gentle with ourselves

Quiet evening along the shore of Lake Michigan.

Really kind of a cross between a pathway and a stairway, this is one of many trails through the parks and grounds of the temples in Kyoto, Japan. A gentle slide for a gentle stairway. Happy Sliders Sunday! HSS!

 

Thanks as always to everyone who stops by to view, fave, and comment on my photos - it is much appreciated.

I've met a few greyhounds recently, and I am impressed by their gentleness, their goofyness, and most of all, their sublime elegance.

Always last minute entry recently.

I was thinking of what to shoot and realized that I was wearing a shirt, haha, took this shot placing the cuff near to another button to make it 3.

As promised, I grabbed my easel and paints and headed up to Nova Scotia to capture the colors and character of the harbor towns on the North Atlantic. A beautiful sunny and calm day provided the perfect canvas for today's Street View scene.

 

Water color rendition of a Google Earth Street View

For my new Flickr friends,

I love to investigate the world via Google Street View, and occasionally I set up my watercolor easel (figuratively) and create a Plein Air painting of a scene. I use the digital art program called DAP to create these paintings. I try to find places that are not so well known, and today's painting is definitely not well known.

 

"So much earth, so little time"

  

For some reason, the gentle and constant movement of the grass reminded me of harvest time, a thought that brought peace and calmness to my mind.

A bit of colour treatment to enhance this peaceful picture. Sunset at Luc sur Mer, Normandy, late July.

Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.

You are a child of the universe

no less than the trees and the stars;

you have a right to be here.

~Max Ehrmann

Excerpt from Desiderata

It's beauty captured in thine eyes.

  

"Be of good cheer dear gentle spirit

it’s clear to all how much you’ve grown

each day is but a mystery to solve

be a light where none has ever shone

 

You have savored the song of love

that so many others might never hear

you are more than worthy enough

so you see quite useless is your fear

 

Smile and act with kindness to all

in this world of darkness you’re a star

shine brightly and do be unafraid

just follow your heart and you’ll go far"
