Yes I am getting all spiritual again, great innit?! I was in Potsdam and headed to a small forest I knew about, the Sun was at a particular point in the Sky which at first I didn't notice, when I took the shot of what I thought was going to be a basic and/or mundane pathway shot through a small forest, I reviewed it and noticed this fantastic Sun-glare, when I took just one step backward and took another shot, the Sun-glare was gone, when I took two steps forward and took the shot, it was gone again, so when returning to the exact spot and again taking a further shot, the Sun Glare was there, it was a chance in a million to get it at such a finely tuned, acute angle of the Sun through this tiny gap in the trees, which had I'd been one foot further I would've missed it completely.
The fact the glare line cuts right through the path, it had an Angelical feel about it, as in, this is the way dear boy.
I hope everyone is holding up well, and so as always, thank you! :)
The buoys for navigation have such a varied appearance. Sometimes they appear as bizarre as in this case.
Die Bojen für die Schifffahrt haben solch unterschiedliches Aussehen. Manchmal erscheinen sie so bizarr wie in diesem Fall.

Assateague Lighthouse, 142-foot-tall (43 m), is on the southern end of Assateague Island in Virginia portion.
Located within the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge owned by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and operated by the U.S. Coast Guard and is still used as an active aid in navigation.
The original lighthouse was constructed in 1833 at a cost of ~ $55,000. In 1860, construction on a taller, more powerfully illuminated brick lighthouse began, but was delayed by the Civil War. After the war, work resumed and the lighthouse was completed in 1867.
The lighthouse is conical in shape and is painted in alternating bands of red and white.
A $1.5 million renovation was completed in October 2013.

Panorama of the Danube just downstream of Melk, Lower Austria The Schönbühel Castle is in the frame as well as the big rocks in the Danube just in front of it.
Without water
these waves
stand silent.
The bell and howl
of sound
on cold, cold ground
the echo of
crow calls on
canyon walls
breach the most deaf
ear
that hasn't heard
anything except
tinnitus
for years.
Try and find
your way out of
here
by following her
voice
croaking
coughing
cautioning
calling
cacophonous
from some unknown
place.
Or
just follow
a vein
with no small
remnant of
rivulet
or stream
until it opens
to the sea.
With currents,
you see,
gain is always
greater than loss
in trying to reach
an end.
