July evening seaside walk

from Helsinki

Happy weekend to all!

Every now and then nature offers you a window to perfection.

Oxbow Bend, Wyoming

Shot with the Olympus E-M1 at MASS MoCA in North Adams, Massachusetts. I dig all aspects of this amazing, creative museum of art. Even the non-intentionally artsy elements, such as this lone person standing in the imposing, brick-lined passageways, have artistic merit to me. I was fascinated by how alone, small and insiginificant he appeared as if this was an illusion.

Capture made with the 10 stop ND filter for this long exposure for tonight's sunset captured while down in Middle River ... out for evening walk with the camera and tripod. Felt good to get out and snap some with the camera.

Hoping all staying safe.

Happy Bench Monday

Peace and seclusion. As if the world belonged to you all alone.

Ruhe und Abgeschiedenheit. Als gehöre einem die Welt ganz alleine.

Spanish steps (Edited)

Its Italian name is “Scalinata della Trinità dei Monti” and composed of 12 ramps and 135 travertine steps, it is considered the widest and longest staircase of Europe, welcoming millions of tourists and Romans who visit at all times of the day.

The ‘Spanish steps’ in Rome, built in Rococo style between 1723 and 1726, are the steps that lead from the Piazza di Spagna square to the French monastery church Trinita dei Monti (built between 1502–1587). There are 135 steps and three different terraces, referring to the Holy Trinity (the Trinità). The top of the stairs near the Egyptian obelisk offers a beautiful view, albeit one shared with throngs of other tourists. The name can be a bit confusing, as the construction of the steps was actually commissioned by the French (Louis XII). In the 17th century, the Spanish embassy was located on the square – ‘Piazza di Spagna’ – at the base of the stairs, hence the name ‘Spanish Steps’. The official name is therefore not Spanish steps, but Scalinata della Trinità dei Monti.

마음과 반대로 아픈 말이 나와

너를 힘들게 했던 나도 내가 힘든 걸

다짐과 다르게 나아진 게 없어

늘 실망하게 했던 나도 후회하는 걸

잊을 수 없을 것 같아

바람이 차가워지면

입김을 불어서 숨결을 만지던 밤

행복한 웃음소리로

포근히 끌어안으며

별빛처럼 빛날 내일을 꿈꾸던 밤

I'll search the universe

for example, when finding beauty in rust and moss ...

this is a rusty, mossy screw head on a weathered green fence post - seen on a Sunday stroll through the spring fields ... and I couldn't resist its rugged beauty : ))

Wishing you a lot of small (and big) moments of happiness and joy !!

Thank you so much for stopping by and taking time to make a comment - very much appreciated <3

... and I am not even a real sea person : ))

Same evening and place (Lake Constance, Germany) as my second last post - just another point of view

It's always worth changing your perspective - in life and in photography, isn't it !?

Derselbe Abend und derselbe Ort wie in meinem vorletzten Beitrag - nur aus einem anderen Blickwinkel (Bodensee bei Unteruhldingen)

Es lohnt sich immer, die Perspektive zu wechseln - im Leben und in der Fotografie, nicht wahr ?

I'll Never Not Love You

Every time my hand reaches for yours

I feel the hesitation

I'm sure that you're not sure

Every time your lips are kissing mine

I taste the indecision

It's messing with my mind

I know there's a part of you

That's terrified to love again

But I promise to the end

I'll never run

Leave you behind

I'll never hurt you like he hurt you

I'll never make you cry

I'll treat you right

I'll stand by you

And no matter whatever happens

I'll never not love you

All of me, it's diving in the deep

You're standing at the shoreline

The waves are at your feet

Trust will never happen overnight

But if you give me more time

I swear you'll see the light

I know there's a part of you

That's terrified to love again

But I promise to the end

I'll never run (never run)

Leave you behind (you behind)

I'll never hurt you like he hurt you

I'll never make you cry

I'll treat you right (treat you right)

I'll stand by you (stand by you)

And no matter whatever happens

I'll never not love you

Ooh, ooh

I'll never not, I'll never not...

I know there's a part of you

That is terrified to love again

But I promise 'til the end

Yeah, I promise 'til the end

I'll never run (never run)

Leave you behind (you behind)

I'll never hurt you like he hurt you

I'll never say goodbye

I'll treat you right (treat you right)

I'll stand by you (stand by you)

And no matter whatever happens

I'll never not love you

Ooh, ooh

I'll never not, I'll never not love you
