With rays of warmth, he embraces her soul. Arms, iron strong, surround their love.

Sunshine reaching, fills the room. With feathered whispers, they embrace the day.

These are Japanese maple leaves, I believe.

The lovely Aechmea reaching above the intertwined garden greens. You can see it's spiky leaves and patches of dryness.

For the gentle clouds can be found.

My grape vine has climbed up the Lime tree and is searching for somewhere else to climb up to. Meanwhile I'll have to check if the birds have found the unripe grapes down below. They tend to strip it long before any grapes are ripe

💭 Did you know Saguaro cacti can grow to be 200+ years old and 40+ feet tall, in an environment that barely receives double-digit annual rainfall totals coupled with air temperatures routinely exceeding triple-digits?! 💪 Talk about perseverance in the face of extreme limitations! I find myself always awe-struck in the presence of these incredible feats of natural engineering.

A pretty miserable day yesterday with rain and strong winds curtesy of storm Callum my camera stayed firmly in its bag, luckily I still have a few images from Wednesday mornings visit to the Upper Dove Valley to share. Walking back down from Chrome hill just after sunrise the golden light spreading through the leaves on the tree was magical. I thought the branches reaching out to the sun, the soft mist and the light skimming over the path made a such lovely tranquil scene so did my best to capture it.(Olympus EM-1 Mkii 7-14mm f/2.8 pro 1/100 f/6.3 @ 7mm Kase X-eye polarising filter)

If I could reach, higher

Just for one moment touch the sky

From that one moment

In my life

I'm gonna be stronger

Know that I've tried my

Very best

I'd put my spirit to the test

If I could reach....

I watched this bull giraffe reaching for this branch. I have the sequence of pics leading up to this and it's so crazy how long his tongue can stretch. Here he finally was able to wrap his tongue around the branch and pull it down. Must taste better at the top! BTW he was really really tall. Also if you notice his ossicones (horns) are bare that is from the necking (fighting) that male giraffes do. It rubs the fur off of them, so you can kind of tell how old he is from that. Anyway, thought it was kind of a fun POV.

(This is a sunset lyrics)

As the setting sun reaches its zenith, its brilliance is finite, confined to a single, fleeting moment.

With the gradual dissipation of clouds, the splendor of the sun fades, never to be rekindled.

The passage of time has wrought its toll on me, causing me to endure the ceaseless changes that life presents, akin to the shifting of clouds upon the weary visage of existence.

After a protracted journey, I have come to a profound realization: time has eluded me, and my moments of joy have been ephemeral, never to be fully realized or sustained.

Reached the Bay Area today! I left San Rafael after lunch to catch the Golden Gate Ferry at Larkspur Terminal. The clouds parted when we reached San Francisco for a picturesque arrival to the city.

The journey continues and our traveller has now reached the gate on his way to the temple...

Got really inspired by summer joust and the asian category so I decided to keep building a bit in that style. Hope you guys like it, still got a temple-build on the way so stay tuned ;)
