All lives have to endure challenges, pain and hurt, sickness, losses in many forms, things to overcome.
Sometimes the struggle is hard and frightening.
Sometimes a person finds is difficult to cope and deal with what is happening in his/her life.
There seems to be no way out or the path that has to be walked is long and uncertain.
What people need most then is love.
Love for yourself, to be loved by a partner, family and friends.
Love is the light on any (dark) path.
While going that path, you need strength. Some find it in themselves, others get strengthened by other people.
Through words, a song, a poem, art, a picture, being in nature, being surrounded by loved ones.
Whatever it is that is hard in your life, I wish for you to overcome it by LOVE and by STRENGTH. By all that is in you.
These paintings are created for that purpose. I hope they will be a guide for you on your path.

In these uncertain times it can be a struggle to understand how you can go on, how to look after your own well-being as well as those around you. There is always hope.

I was lucky enough to head over to Hawaii with my Friend Miles Morgan a couple months ago to visit our good friends Bruce Omori and Tom Kualii from Extreme Exposure Gallery and get some much desired lava photography done. What a trip! Great times with great friends, great shooting, and the most fast food I have ever eaten!
This shot was from our last morning of shooting, which was by far one of my best mornings of shooting ever. The flows were running well, the plume of steam was blowing just the right direction, and the light didn't let us down at all.

Explored on Flickr!
Many of my contacts know I have been battling health problems for quite some time now.. hence why i keep taking time out from Flickr.
Over the last 9 months it has gotten quite out of control, leaving me feeling very depressed, frustrated, in pain and totally uninspired ..
I have had chronic back pain for a long time now, but have been experiencing other weird 'unexplained' symptoms, especially my ongoing tinnitus/jaw/headaches pain issues ..
I finally had an appointment with a Rhumatologist earlier this week ( after waiting 3 months)
He concluded that I have Fibromyalgial Syndrome.
I remember at one stage I used to find touching my hair/head very painful, and that is one of the most common symtoms of this condition apparently..
It is a complex thing, but in my case it has probably been brought on by many years of having chronic pain, and now i have become super sensitive to any level of pain.
My body has gone so haywire with it that i have no option but to go onto strong medication ( nerve blockers)
My problems started when I was quite young with experiencing pain, and i guess my body is now saying 'No More' ! therefore my brain signals are being overloaded..
This is what I understand at this stage about it. It can be genetic as well apparently..
Different people suffer to varying degrees with it. I also have TMJ as part of it , which is one of the reasons It is may be causing the severity of my tinnitus ...
It is very similar, so I am told ( symptom wise) to MS, but not as serious ...
So I guess now the next thing for me to do is start trailing meds for it, to see which one will help me the most. Once they do start helping me, i will then have to start trying to get myself a lot healthier in order to cope long term and have better quality of life :)

Newborn monarch butterfly #35 emerged this morning from the smallest chrysalis, and she was the smallest monarch butterfly this year. This photo shows her hanging from root of tropical milkweed plant because she fell when emerging from the small chrysalis and I used the root to quickly restore her to her typical hanging position so she could continue to properly develop her soft floppy wings. I noticed that she emerged from the chrysalis with asymmetrical wings, maybe due to constrictions inside the small chrysalis, and when she finally tried to fly away, she flew in circles three times, probably due to her wing imbalance. Then, after recognizing the need to compensate and make an adjustment for the imperfection, she flew up and away to some unknown destination, but probably never Mexico.
I'd like to thank everyone who contributed ideas for the title of this image, the kind comments and simply the shere response to the image.
I eventually settled for 'queenbeeamy's' suggestion as I felt it encompassed everything i wanted to express and could not word properly.
I think the title/ quote applies to all of us and like the baby elephant walking the dangerous tightrope, we will manage to overcome with the necessary courage, determination and most of all Love! Whatever we do carries risk, there will be spectators and looming threats and yet there will be a helping hand(s), support, guidance and the promise of light. We need to follow that light...
Thank you Amy - Please mail me your postal address so that i can send you this image on canvas...!! :))
