The theme for Smile on Saturday is"look up to the sky".I have many images as it is my favorite past time but this made me smile.For our wedding anniversary in 2010 I gifted John flying lessons. I had forgotten what a joy it was for him as he took his freedom flight' As I stood on the ground looking up to the sky, , the plane accelerated, beginning to disappear from view. I recall feeling that same joy for him. I hope this makes you smile

 

Little River, Great Smoky Mountains, Tennessee. Out of a lifting mist the water comes down, flanked and studded with perfect greens. It is pulled on a gradual gradient, and leaves a trail with each step, dragging a memory backward. The life of it's flow should be beautiful, but I find it a little cold, a little remote. Looking at the boulders, strewn and fallen in the flow, I think of my journey downriver. They are like pieces of me, broken off with each disappointment, each betrayal along the way. They stand like lessons learned, remnants of selflessness meets selfishness...bad decisions and weakness. They stand as a lesson to make myself harder, even if I don't want to be, because what is true in nature is not always true in me. But being true litters the streambed, back as far as I can see. If each had a name, they would stand as virtues lost, lessons learned. The perfect greens belie a bittersweet place; I'll leave it's beauty for another time.

The perfect picture in corona times!

"You spend your whole life just to remember the sound

When the world was brighter, before we learned to dim it down

Call it survival, call it the freedom of will

Where breath is our own, our compass needle standing still"

 

I got a headache after this.

These young adult bears had found a porcupine and the one on the right payed the price. Sometimes life's lessons are learned the hard way. On a positive note I have some face shots of the one on the right and it's eyes were unharmed.

Life comes at us whether we are prepared or not and sometimes teaches us if we take the time to lisson. In this case an Autumn leaf is both the same as most Maple Leaves as it goes through its inexorable seasonal change. And, at the same time it is different and somewhat unique with respect to the way it is changing.

 

There is a life lesson here I thought, so take the time to listen said that little voice in my head. We all try to express ourselves as individuals to be noticed and at the same time most do not want to be on the fringe and too different. Life and a big lesson is delivered to my feet in a small way.

Time doesn't heal anything... It just teaches how to live with the pain. - Unknown

Had to post an alternative version of my "Daddy Lessons" picture as I really liked the colours (and felt like it deserved a close-up shot).

Happy Fence Friday!

The photograph being looked at here is actually very important. Unfortunately the name of the photographer is unknown. It was taken in 1912 and shows a women's life drawing class at the Launceston Technical College where Lucien Dechaineux (1869-1957) had been in charge of the art department. Dechaineux taught composition classes to the Tasmanian photographer Jack Cato. Have a look at this brilliant Cato portrait: searchthecollection.nga.gov.au/object/155474

But we know Cato didn't take this photograph because he was already working in London at the time.

However, the real significance of this photo is, (1) that the artists' model here is actually Lucien Dechaineux, and (2) that it shows Hope Evershed, the first female art teacher at the Launceston Technical College, guiding a group of female students in a lesson.

My grandson, Wyatt loves music and is interested in learning to play for real someday. He’s about 21/2-3 yrs. old. He’s picked up the guitar to play, my Native American Flutes and lately the keyboard. The best I can do is encourage him to play whatever he wants. He’ll at times wear my headphones and hum along to whatever is playing at time. He’s a delight. Gratitude and Kindness play a role in our relationship.

All the lessons of history in four sentences: Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad with power. The mills of God grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly small. The bee fertilizes the flower it robs. When it is dark enough, you can see the stars.

The lesson here: don't pack up too quickly!

 

On this particularly magical night, a dynamic storm was moving through. We hiked up to a wonderful viewpoint to photograph the lights of the rifugio at blue hour. The clouds blowing over the top of the left mountain created a neat long exposure effect. I took several panoramic passes and was about to pack up when some very late sunset color suddenly appeared in the clouds. What a nice surprise that was!

 

We have only one spot left for 2023!
