Peace is a journey

Of a thousand miles

And it must be taken

One step at a time.

I was back in Grunewald again to walk Bobby a few days ago and there are so many fallen / chopped down trees, quite literally littering the forest floor, which was annoying and a little depressing to see. But that said, some of the older carcasses so to speak, were already becoming somewhat consumed by moss and fungi, this tree was no exemption. A falling for one is a growth opportunity for another and so nature continues and reclaims as it does.

Albeit this is on a spectacularly smaller scale, I cannot help think of places like New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina and Pripyat after Chernobyl, ought to be a sobering reminder that the only true god like deity that exists is Mother Nature / Gaia. That which always, fights back, wins out and reclaims. Every single time!

I hope everyone is well and so as always, thank you! :)

I came across this scene a couple of years ago and visited several times before capturing anything of note. In autumn and winter the canopy opens up too much and the scene becomes too bright so when in its green display in August it works reasonably well. I like the elements of our activity with these giant millstones slowly being reclaimed back to nature.

I never truly get the shot I want at this place as we are driving by on a small highway and this is set back a bit.

This one was not too bad.

We sometimes go hiking at nearby Rancho San Antonio in Cupertino, California. On the way there is a farm called Deer Hollow Farm. I spotted these cattle/pig stairs, used to load the animals onto wagons/trucks in the old days. Nature is slowly reclaiming the contraption.

I processed a balanced HDR photo from a RAW exposure.

A headstone tucked away in a corner at Brompton Cemetery, Grasses, plants and ivy has reclaimed the corner and dark evening light illuminated the scene.

Nature reclaiming abandoned building East Port, Maine

Image taken in Second Life @ Netherwood -- used a texture I created for overlay. Wonderful sim to explore.

If mankind perished utterly;

And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn,

Would scarcely know that we were gone.”

I've been hunting around over several visits looking for composition in this area. The light initially was too hash, but after the sun dipped behind cloud it produced a nice bit of reflected light. Used the rock as interest surrounded by the heather & being reclaimed to the land.

Thanks for looking.

Everything that comes from this earth will eventually go back to it.

LS&I's 7 Tilden is chugging upgrade between Palmer Line Junction and Eagle Mills Junction with 60 loads from Tilden Mine.

In the background is the long dormant Tracy Mine. Opened in the early 1950s and closed in the early 1970s, LS&I built a new right of way (the one the train is on) to access the underground mine via two connection tracks, one of which swung off just ahead of the lead locomotive.

Like so many other dead mines in the area, Mother Nature is slowly reclaiming what it can of the property.

I shall let Nature reclaim me, this heart will beat once more with the strength of her in me..

Many Thankyou's for browsing at my work, I am so appreciative of comments and awards given to me. Nothing is wasted.

I was amazed to stumble across half a block of mostly hidden abandoned row houses in the middle of north Detroit. The surrounding blocks are mostly empty now. Just vacant overgrown lots and dark empty buildings.

This old BMW was abandoned in Bayhurst Wood many years ago and has now been almost reclaimed by nature.

Annesley All Saints or "Old Church" dates to 1356. It was abandoned in 1874 after the focus of the community shifted eastwards towards a new coal mine. A new church was consecrated closer to the miner's houses and this one fell into ruin. There are great views of the ruins of Annesley hall, which stand on private land, from the Churchyard. Annesley, Nottinghamshire, UK.

Nobody live in these Peruvian makeshift houses or has intention to live there. Building one of them may give one day the right to the builder to reclaim the ownership of the land.

This image is from an evening spent at Covehithe in suffolk, I waited for almost 2 hours for the tide to come in and surround this second world war pill box.
