beauty need not be grand. it can be as simple as one stem of clover illuminated by early-morning sun. if we wait for grandeur, excitement, or bliss, life passes us by. there’s beauty in everyday things. there’s joy in a simple smile. there’s kindness in small actions. there’s peace in the stillness.
each day i remind myself: slow down, pay attention, and be kind. be present for this one precious life.
Windmills have become part of the Canarian landscape, silent witnesses of a past in which they played an important role in the economy of the islands. In the case of Fuerteventura, they existed profusely because this typology is developed mainly in arid or desert regions, taking the wind as a source of energy, to make up for the lack of water currents. To this contributed the almost permanent presence of air currents in the islands and the orography of the island, characterized by vast plains only "interrupted" by these peculiar constructions.
Their typologies are made up of two very different types, but one of them predominates numerically. The most abundant is defined by an architectural structure of flat circular plant, with truncated cone shape made of masonry, topped by an irregular conical or pyramidal wooden roof of which one of its parts is open to give exit to the axis of the blades. The interior is divided into two floors, with access to the upper floor by an interior staircase, in some cases, or exterior, in others. The other typology, of which there are fewer examples, is defined by a quadrangular building, on which rises a tower made with a framework of wooden railings, which supports the blades. In the center of the tower descends an axis that connects the gearing of the blades with the stones.

Exhibition. Silence & The Presence of Everything.
Can you capture a ray of sunlight? Artists Sabine Marcelis (born 1985) and Boris Acket (born 1988) tried. The idea for this work arose when they saw a ray of sunlight shining perfectly in a puddle of water for five minutes. This artwork is a poetic attempt to preserve this usually fleeting image and thus briefly freeze time.Tentoonstelling. Silence & The Presence of everything.
Kun je een zonnestraal vangen? Kunstenaars Sabine Marcelis (1985) en Boris Acket (1988) probeerden het. Het idee voor dit werk ontstond (toen) ze een zonnestraal zagen die 5 minuten lang perfect in een plas water scheen. Dit kunstwerk is een poetische poging dit doorgaans vluchtige beeld te behouden en de tijd daarmee even stil te zetten.

An improv with my collaborator, thank you my friend, it’s always a pleasure to work on something new.
But when, huh, you fall in love,
it’s a much more serious involvement
You just cannot forget this person
You feel miserable when not in their presence,
you’re always yearning
Let’s get, huh, to see more of each other,
let’s get together, that’s, huh
We’re completely entangled and then you see
You’ve actually, huh, kind of out
what I would call spiritual element has been introduced
Falling in love

The presence of a house, once prosperous but now abandoned, in Keran along the LOC in Kashmir Himalayas, India
each evening, the bees move around my coneflower garden. it's a practice in presence. stand and watch. magic arrives in my own backyard.
Elegant, in motion.
The randomness of shopping becomes presence.
Thank you to this adorable woman for crossing the frame.

#4 - Lack and Presence
When the light and the contrast take over in it the image,
it starts its trip in the eyes of whom observes this.....

I have realized that the past and future are real illusions, that
they exist in the presence, which is what there is and all there is.
Alan Watts.
I wasn't too thrilled about the dump of snow we'd got overnight but as the day went on and the sun came out, I knew I had to get out with my camera for a bit, something I had not done for a while.
So I headed over to McArthur Island Park, home of the marmots. I wasn't expecting to see any wildlife except for ducks; the marmots are probably nestled down in their burrows for the winter. What a lovely surprise it was to round a corner and see this young buck standing in the middle of the road like he owned it.
The imposing presence of a juvenile Bald Eagle is evident even though it is so young it's just learning to fly.

He ignored me, but the presence of a pair of Red-tailed Hawks circling overhead caught his attention.
Depiction of the Last Supper in the St. Janskerk in Gouda. The church in Gouda, Zuid-Holland, boasts a magnificent collection of 16th-century stained-glass windows of biblical and historical scenes. As often happened in those days, this one blends the two by showing Philip II (the infamous king of Spain) and his spouse Mary Tudor as direct witnesses of the Last Supper. As donators of the window they were entitled to a front row seat in any possible event, historical or other. The piety and act of faith shown here in this Dutch church shouldn't fool anybody as Philip became during his reign (1556-1598) by his ruthless policy one of the worst enemies of the Dutch and would eventually be kicked out of the country. The window was crafted by Dirk Crabeth in 1557.
