“Beauty is an ache, a presage.

A glimpse, a longing, and a

bewildering ecstasy.”

 

—Beth Powning

 

The year I turned 40, I flew to Costa Rica to try something that was on my bucket list: surfing. I took the Sunwing “champagne” flight, and stayed with family in a villa just steps from the ocean. It was a dream come true. This photo was taken one evening with my old Canon camera as I walked the beach alone. The sunset was spectacular—just the remedy at the time for my restless heart. It felt like a gift. It took my breath away.

 

I was raised by the water, but I haven’t always lived by lakes (and later the ocean) that I grew up around. I thought that I would return to the coast permanently at some point, but that hasn’t been in the cards for me. Only people who truly love the water know what it’s like to be separated from it. It is an ache that never leaves you. Although, if I were to leave here, inevitably there would be things to miss (like brilliant autumn leaves, my proximity to Toronto, etc.). You can never have it all, it seems, which is why we must be grateful for what we have. And I am grateful, for opportunities, memories and photos that can take me back—even if only briefly in my mind.

From restless thoughts, that, like a deadly swarm

Of hornets arm'd, no sooner found alone,

But rush upon me thronging.

I’ll try to make this my last Snow Bunting post for a while 😊

The ocean is a little restless ahead of an incoming storm. My favorite place on the California coast, Pescadero State Beach, just north of Santa Cruz.

A little rough and restless out there today.

One of San Diego's great locations to shoot sunsets. This is the Oceanside Pier in of course Oceanside in northern San Diego.

 

Again I took a wide variety of setting for my shots and landed up liking the 0.8sec exposure. This is the sweet spot to get a great motion in water thats not too still and not too moving.

 

This is just after the sunset but again no great hues nor clouds so I thought a nice splashing foreground and a converging pier poles in the middle would give the photograph an interesting outlook and perspective.

 

Thanks for you favorites and comments, I highly appreciate them!

Garden picture.

Snow and buds.

To be able to fly like the birds seems so fascinating. Crows and/Ravens have always interests me...I think they are one of the most mysterious creatures in the world.

 

This is a quick study of drawing birds on Fabriano paper in which I decided to use charcoal & graphite.

 

I'm actually hoping to convey that sort of "danger" #ClimateChange could cause through this image...I think if we humans won't believe and actually listen to scientists perhaps animals could give us a "warning" of the truth behind what is inevitable...

On today's drive through the Samford Valley, I came across many types of animals. This was one of them.

Louis Berry - Restless

 

Don't you know that I'm just restless baby

Don't you know that I'm just restless baby

Without you

Oh tell me that you love me

So I can find my place

And let me smell your sweet sweet lovin'

Without awkwardness

Oh tell me that you need me

And take me home

And lay me down in your comfort

So I can rest my soul

See I know you just need a little space and time

I know you're not even really even one for trying

Don't forget I know you best

And I know you just need a little love for free

Need a little space a little time to breathe

But I'm not one for rest

Don't you know that I'm just restless baby

Don't you know that I'm just restless baby

Without you

Oh but failing

With my lovin's

My only regret

And caught up in the moment

Tryna own it

Just ain't making any sense

And for all that I wished for I could not see

Understand that I feel foolish

Not for love I would not do this

But getting back to you has got its hold

It's here, your time-

The golden restless age

And time won't turn the page

You're only passing through a form of you"

Excuse me for a while

While I′m wide-eyed

And I'm so damn caught in the middle

I excused you for a while

While I′m wide-eyed

And I'm so damn caught in the middle

 

And a lion, a lion roars, would you not listen?

If a child, a child cries, would you not forgive them?

 

Yeah I might seem so strong

Yeah I might speak so long

I've never been so wrong

Yeah I might seem so strong

Yeah I might speak so long

I′ve never been so wrong

“The restlessness and the longing, like the longing that is in the whistle of a faraway train. Except that the longing isn't really in the whistle—it is in you.”

Yellowstone National Park is a national park located primarily in the U.S. state of Wyoming, although it also extends into Montana and Idaho.

 

It was established by the U.S. Congress and signed into law by President Ulysses S. Grant on March 1, 1872. Yellowstone, widely held to be the first national park in the world, is known for its wildlife and its many geothermal features, especially Old Faithful Geyser, one of the most popular features in the park.

 

It has many types of ecosystems, but the subalpine forest is most abundant. It is part of the South Central Rockies forests ecoregion.
