Praying for peace in Ukraine.....and that the dove of Peace will transcend all evil and darkness.
Genesis 8:6-12 6
After forty days Noah opened a window he had made in the ark and sent out a raven, and it kept flying back and forth until the water had dried up from the earth.
Then he sent out a dove to see if the water had receded from the surface of the ground. But the dove could find nowhere to perch because there was water over all the surface of the earth; so it returned to Noah in the ark. He reached out his hand and took the dove and brought it back to himself in the ark. He waited seven more days and again sent out the dove from the ark.
When the dove returned to him in the evening, there in its beak was a freshly plucked olive leaf! Then Noah knew that the water had receded from the earth.

This was at Hanging Rock State Park at North Carolina USA. In this lake you can swim and have fun in the water. This is a beautiful park with a lot of places to go. Perfect to take pictures and enjoy a day of peace and beauty.
“Quiet is peace. Tranquility. Quiet is turning down the volume knob on life. Silence is pushing the off button. Shutting it down. All of it. - Amir”
On the Abergwesyn Pass, an ancient cattle drovers road, some amazing very remote scenery close to home!
Seek peace within yourself, than go out into the world and see it through your new eyes.
Then I think that we'll enjoy our lives in a different way, and also find what really matters for us🙏
It had been raining for almost three days. I was quite frustrated not having any chances to take a decent shot. After all you can't visit Agio Oros every day and when you manage to do so you're not allowed to stay more than three nights.
Quite unexpectedly, on the second day the rain temporarily ceased and pockets of clear sky, combined with puffy but still menacing clouds, appeared.
I dared a rush upon the Skete trying to ''shoot'' as many frames as I could. I did, yet the most thrilling part was the unexpected encounter with a 92 year old monk, who was labouring his steps on the steep ground trying to reach his home. What he told me filled my eyes with tears...
Location: Skete of Saint Anna (Just below St. Peter and Paul's cell), Mount Athos (Agio Oros), Hellas.

Skippy, Jinx, and Pokute meet together for the first time
and laugh and laugh and laugh.
It's amazing how something as simple as sharing ice cream can bring people together.
Thank you to everyone out there who encouraged me to create an image inspired by the Stand for Peace project.
There is so much darkness in all the worlds we share, so much of it does not make sense to me, especially knowing that we're all connected. So let's make sense and be the change.
No one is better than anyone else. Be kind and compassionate to all in your universe. Harm no one.
Create light and shine.
Stand for Peace.
Special hugs and thanks to Jinx and Pokute.
Thank you most of all for being my friend.
Let's make the world a better place for all.
Peace
Although Mourning Doves are often the symbol for peace, they can be quite aggressive around feeders.
This morning before dawn while driving to Bombay Hook I hit something, possibly some re-bar, causing a catastrophic blowout and destroying two tires and a wheel.
I got a major scare, but am fine, but I am grounded for the next few days until my car is fixed, so I will be posting birds from my yard.

This is my lovely little spot for my lunch, a small pebbly beach on the banks of the River Dee, quite near its source in the Scottish Highlands, with a view of the spectacular Lairig Ghru and sheltered from the wind being channelled down the Glen. The river flows down the Dee valley, through Aberdeen harbour to reach the North Sea. Here I have a fine view of Ben MacDui, the UK's 2nd highest peak, which stands at 1309 meters (4295 feet) on the right, opposite Braeriach, standing at 1296 meters (4251 feet), the UK's 3rd highest peak, both still covered in winter snow. Breathe in the fine clear air, and let's eat!!
Peace is present right here and now, in ourselves and in everything we do and see. Every breath we take, every step we take, can be filled with peace, joy, and serenity.
The question is whether or not we are in touch with it. We need only to be awake, alive in the present moment.

The long journey to Indian Henry's Hunting Grounds is strenuous one. Several ridges must be climbed and for me this little scene came up a few moments after I realized that I still had one to go. I took in the cool breeze and cooled off with the cold water and accepted the mountains touching gesture. After sitting on a rock in the shade next to that water fall and stretching a bit I was rejuvenated knowing what waited on the other side.
I broke my cardinal rule yesterday, I posted that pick, got a glass of water and settled in to catch up here and the ills of the day caught up with me and grabbed my camera and headed out without viewing one shot. I'm going to catch up now, but if I missed something sweet due to the one pic a day thang, let me know.
ALL VETERANS Thank you for your time, bravery, and sacrifice for this country.
