Motivational Quotations - Happy Purpose
View allAll Photos Tagged Motivation
Ja, das ist ein recht bekannter See und ein absoluter Hotspot. Daher - und auch wenn es dort wunderschön ist - besuche ich diesen Ort absolut ungerne, denn ich mag lieber die einsamen Plätze, wo ich für mich sein kann.
Am Parkplatz angekommen, waren schon einige Leute unterwegs und meine nicht vorhandene Motivation ist nochmal weiter in den Keller gerutscht. Aber mein Freund hatte darauf bestanden hier hin wollte und wäre ziemlich beleidigt gewesen, wenn ich zuhause geblieben wäre.
Zunächst habe ich überlegt am Auto zu bleiben und nochmal eine Runde zu schlafen (der Wecker hat um 4:30 Uhr geklingelt), aber dann habe ich beschlossen doch einfach mal loszulaufen.
Unterwegs ist die Stimmung dann doch nach oben gegangen, denn über dem See hing Nebel und die Stimmung war großartig. An den ersten Spots waren schon Leute, so bin ich einfach weitergelaufen.
Übrigens ein weiterer Grund, weshalb ich diesen See nicht mag ist, dass ich die letzten Jahre hinterher immer mindestens eine Zecke eingesammelt habe (ich habe sie zum Glück aber immer fangen und wieder aussetzen können, bevor sie mich gebissen haben).
Am eigentlichen Ort angekommen, ist meine Unmotivation aber blitzschnell verflogen, denn der Anblick war einfach wunderschön und hat alle negativen Gedanken in Windeseile weggespült.
Dieser einmalig schöne Morgen war es auf alle Fälle wert sich aus dem Bett zu quälen und ich werde die nächste Zeit sicher noch ein paar weitere Bilder von diesem tollen Vormittag hochladen.

Playing around in my archived photos this morning, I came across this shot of a 12 point (Royal) Red stag taken back in October of 2022 while visiting Scotland. Seeing him and spending just a few minutes in his presence was the best wildlife encounter of the entire trip, and one of the best thus far of my life.
It may sound stupid to some, but when you research, plan, travel, pay and pray to just see a species…and then you stand on a small knoll in the Scottish Highlands and are blessed with a photo session with magnificence...priceless! It is these times that I dream about while sitting awake in my chair watching crap TV.
Two thoughts on this encounter:
A wise wildlife photographer once shares with me “If you want National Geographic type photos, you have to go where National Geographic goes!”
A quote I recently shared on Facebook that read “God is in control, but He doesn’t expect you to lean on a shovel and pray for a hole.”
Legal note: I am in no way, shape or form insinuating this shot is worthy of National Geographic...the saying is to me about travel, not the quality of my shots shared.
By writing the above…I have motivated myself to get off my shovel and start planning another adventure!
Adventure before dementia!
"Fallin' into the bed
Why would we ever do somethin' instead of
Fallin' into the bed right now? Yeah
I'ma break you off, let me be your motivation
To stay and give it tonight
And, baby, turn around, let me give you innovation
Hey, 'cause I do it so right
Think about it, ooh, I think about it
Think about it, ooh, take a look at me now
Hey, a little motivation, alright...."
Solche Momente motivieren mich – das erste Licht, die erwachende Natur, die stille Schönheit im Vorbeigehen. Seit ich fotografiere, gehe ich viel aufmerksamer durch die Welt.
Diese Augenblicke bedeuten mir viel – sie entschleunigen, erden und geben Kraft.
Ich sehe mir gern andere Bilder an, kommentiere aber selten – nicht aus Desinteresse, sondern weil mir aus gesundheitlichen Gründen oft die Energie fehlt.
Manchmal führt das leider zu Enttäuschung. Doch ich habe gelernt, meine Kräfte achtsam einzuteilen und mich auf das Wesentliche zu konzentrieren.
Bei dem Foto handelt es sich übrigens um ein Hochkantpanorama um mehr von dem Blümchenbokeh aufs Bild zu bekommen.
It's cold here in London, so damn cold. I haven't been out with a camera for what seems like ages. I have good intentions but every morning I look outside at the frost and it doesn't take long for the motivation to completely desert me. Maybe tomorrow...
Meanwhile here's one I prepared earlier. Last summer to be accurate, taken on a little jewel of a 35mm film camera that is just a joy to shoot with.

I have not found the motivation to go out and search for wildlife lately. I have found an abundance, however, here at home. It's just as unpredictable as wildlife elsewhere but easier to grab my camera. This year's fawn season has been especially gratifying. Portions of the yard appear to have become a playground of sorts. At about 5 or 6 weeks, these two found that the dirt driveway to the barn was perfect to try out their new running shoes. That didn't keep them from stopping for a portrait.
Le nid a été installé dans un trou , sous un pont . 3 petits sont déjà sortis et volent de pierre en pierre en ouvrant grand le bec et en écartant les ailes qu'ils font vibrer pour demander de la nourriture aux parents . Il doit rester du monde dans le nid , car les adultes se posent à l'abri du pont , le bec plein , et agitent leurs ailes , tout en regardant vers le trou , espérant la sortie du ou des derniers ...

Here's another rare non train photo here at Dave Blaze Rail Photography. I've shared a photo of this vessel before because I caught her on my first visit to the region in May and was fortunate to see her again on this October trip.
As I've mentioned this can kind of count as a 'rail photo' since this laker is actually a railroad owned asset....for now. The Philip R. Clarke is leaving Lake Superior and starting into the Duluth Entry as it passes the Duluth South Breakwater Outer Light at the tip of the south pier. This lighthouse was completed in August 1901 replacing the first which became operational in 1874. The fourth order Fresnel lens (made in France in 1877) from the original lighthouse was transferred to this tower and remained in operation until 2014 when it was replaced with an LED beacon and that lens was placed on display in the nearby Lake Superior Marine Museum. The lighthouse was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2016.
As for the Clarke, they are headed to CN Dock 6 to load iron ore pellets destined for Toledo. If the paint scheme of this vessel reminds you of a modern CN Gevo you wouldn't be wrong and that's why this counts (per my arbitrary rules) as a rail photo. The Clarke is owned by Great Lakes Fleet whose parent company is indeed the Canadian National which came to own the company in 2004 when it purchased Great Lakes Transportation Company from Transtar. Their primary motivation was to acquire the Duluth Missabe and Iron Range Railway and Elgin Joliet and Eastern Railroad but ending up with the Bessemer and Lake Erie Railroad and the Great Lakes Fleet and associated docks as part of the package deal!
The Clarke is one of nine self unloading bulk carriers in the company's portfolio and is of the classic laker design with the superstructure and bridge on her bow. Launched in 1952 she is oil fired and steam driven and was 647 ft long when built but lengthened to 767 ft in 1974. To learn more I direct you to this links.
For info on the Great Lakes Fleet company here is a nice history and below that a downloadable PDF brochure from the CN.

And here is a great history of this classic septuagenarian vessel:

As an aside, the CN put the company up for sale in 2022 so if they ultimately sell the vessels and docks I guess this won't qualify as a train photo anymore!

For some time now I'm lacking of motivation, I'm having trouble finding my way, and I'm having a hard time blossoming in what I'm doing. All of this locks me in a vicious circle. So much that I've been sick for 2 months and I think if I still am, it's because I don't want to heal.
To try and get me out of this, I bet on my long-term photo projects, it's more or less effective, making progress is encouraging.
I'm asking a lot of questions, but I think I should just ask the others.
I kind of quitted my sociability from the Netherlands to get back to my French solitaire daily routine.
It's hard to describe the state of mind in which I am, because despite this, morally I am in good shape, but I'm still a little bit annoyed by what's going on right now.
I will try to do a week of black and white photo next week, I was thinking of self-Portraits, I don't know too much, if you have ideas, leave it in comment, I'll take care of the rest ;)
It's been a long time since I've written about me, but I like to do it once in a while, just to figure out why I'm taking pictures of a guy for a period.
I'm not going to ask you to share, I prefer this post to be seen by the people who follow me (of course you do whatever you want ! ), however, do not hesitate to comment (especially if you want to see me experiment techniques).
I hope you enjoy seeing me back with a sombrero in the middle of winter, because I have other photos in this style :)
Happy Sunday and see you soon!

Depuis un moment je manque de motivation, j'ai du mal à voir où je veux aller et j'ai du mal à m’épanouir dans ce que je fais. Tout ça m'enferme dans un cercle vicieux. A tel point que ça fait 2 mois que je suis malade et je pense que si je le reste, c'est parce qu’intérieurement, je ne souhaite pas guérir.
Pour essayer de me sortir de ça, j'ai misé sur mes projets photos à long terme, c'est plus ou moins efficace, le fait d'avancer est encourageant.
Je me pose plein de questions, alors que je pense que je devrais surtout en poser aux autres.
J'ai un peu quitté ma sociabilité des Pays-Bas pour revenir à mon train train de solitaire Français.
C'est difficile de décrire l'état d'esprit dans lequel je suis puisque malgrè ça, moralement j'ai la forme, mais je reste un peu saoulé par ce qui se passe en ce moment.
Je vais essayer de faire une semaine de photo en noir et blanc la semaine prochaine, je pensais à des autoportraits, je ne sais pas trop, si vous avez des idées, laissez-moi ça en commentaire, je m'occupe du reste ;)
ça faisait longtemps que je n'avais pas écris sur moi, mais j'aime bien le faire un coup de temps en temps ne serais-ce que pour comprendre un peu pourquoi je sort des photos d'un type pendant une période.
Je ne vais pas vous demander de partager, je préfère que ce poste s'adresse aux gens qui me suivent (après vous faites ce que vous voulez !), par contre n'hésitez pas à commenter (surtout si vous voulez me voir expérimenter des techniques).
J'espère que vous appréciez me voir de dos avec un sombrero en plein hiver, parce que j'ai d'autres photos dans ce style :)
Bon dimanche et à bientôt !
