After a hectic morning at work it is wonderful to take half an hour walk in the fresh air beside the river to clear my mind.
This picture was taken not far from where I live. A few years ago this street didn't exist; now there's a huge subdivision.
Path at Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs. Easy walk to see some excellent red rock formations.
The path to the brea dam is pretty confusing. There are lots of small winding lanes and half-trodden paths that lead to nowhere. Add to the formula the essence of true nature, with only the sounds of rustling leaves and the calling of birds.
Half an hour into the hike, I added to the cacophony of silence with my labored breathing.
It's particularly confusing when you meet a split in the road with no markers, and each lane is just as winding and confusing as the on you left.
This is an original photograph I took back in 2013. It's a good lead in for my story today. This is one of the many paths that I have had the good fortune to walk each day. Now I am on another path. This path is called recovery. I had a stroke (intracerebral hemorrhage) on June 6th. I have been house bound since then, I miss my walks and daily photography a lot. The good news though is that a full recovery is anticipated. Progress is slow and the therapists told me I needed to use my hands in ways that would be challenging. I told them I had a solution.. I'm using the time to learn how to be creative and combine textures and my older photographs into art, I can't wait until I get back out among the birds, flowers, and other beauty but meanwhile I am learning and having fun!
A walk around Minterne Gardens in Dorset.
The garden walk is about 1 mile in a horseshoe shape.
You can take different paths on the last leg of the walk, we went on the upper path.
Various paths.
Trees
Information below from leaflet from Minterne Gardens:
The Minterne Valley, landscapped in the manner of Capability Brown in the 18th century, has been the home of the Churchill and Digby families for 350 years. The gardens are laid out in a horseshoe below Minterne House, with a chain of small lakes, waterfalls and streams. They contain an important collection of Himalayan Rhodocdendrons and Azaleas, with Spring bulbs, Cherries, Maples and many fine and rare trees; the garden is noted for its Autumn colouring.
Of particular note are the large plants of Magnolia Campbellii which flower in March and April, together with a profusion of spring bulbs. Many flowering cherries were brought from Japan in 1920 and the Pieris Forrestii with their brilliant scarlet shoots, originally came from Wakehurst. A very fine collection of Davidia Involucrata (the pocket handkerchief tree) produce striking bracts in late May and early June, when the streams are lined with primulas, astilbes and other water plants.
Taken for the Active Assignment Weekly! group. This week's assignment: Solitude
What it took: Went for a walk yesterday and I just liked the path up the hill in the afternoon sunlight. So I decided to shoot it wide open so that the distance falls into pleasant blur.
Positive solitude.
Tip-toe'ing through the glorious unknown species of "weeds" ( flowers ) gracing my path from house to parked car each day for about a week in August; I stop to admire and leave them be, when many a dim bulb of a horticultural fascist would trample or uproot and discard them to wither and die.

The enchanted path to Ballynoe Stone Circle in County Down. To get to this megalithic monument you follow a path which is enclosed by a hawthorn arched hedge - a perfect entrance.
Change is always scary. The unknown is unsettling. It may be discomforting, but some changes have to happen whether we like it or not. For better or for worst, all we can do is "keep calm and carry on". Carry on down the lonely path to the not so distant future.
I love how the red scale renders the contrast and adds to the vintage feel of this photo. The focus isn't where I intended it to be but it looks cool focusing on the end of the shadows. :)

EMR's two HST sets cross paths at East Midlands Parkway this afternoon. 43102 trails 43295 working 1B63 Nottingham - St Pancras while 43320 arrives working 1D48 St Pancras - Nottingham with 238 on the rear
the road into Kelly Basin, west coast Tasmania. It used to be a rail track (I think) - very narrow for a car to drive along.
---- Inside the Cathedral: Angel Gabriel ----

Fiumedinisi (ME), eve of the Feast of Our Lady of the Annunciation, 2013: this is a "penitential procession" understood as "the Travels" (or also commonly called "procession of kneeling"), in which the faithful, almost all women, proceeding on their knees, sometimes even barefoot, along a narrow street, about 800 meters long, almost always dark, lit only in some places, especially illuminated by the dim light from robust candles, also used as support from every penitent; the procession starts inside the church of S. Peter, to continue until the stairway in front of the Cathedral (which is also a Marian Shrine), who once traveled, still on their knees, will bring every penitent devout inside the Sanctuary, always proceeding on their knees, in front of the statues of Our Lady and Angel Gabriel, placed one in front of the other, at the foot of the main altar ....
