One of my simple pleasures is time to luxuriate in the morning with the paper and my java. When I live out in the country (last year it was 7 months) I don't have a paper and scan the headlines of the Globe and Mail on the computer but it just isn't the same.

I snapped this photo on the way to Taughannock State Park near Ithaca in Upstate, NY.
I love the beautiful scenery that is found in the Finger Lakes of Upstate, NY. Who wouldn't relish in watching and listening to the rushing water tumbling over the rocks on a melting icy waterfall. It is definitely one of my Simple Pleasures!
The beauty and contours of California's rolling hills never ceases to amaze me, and walking them is one of my favorite simple pleasures. I used to go out of my way to take photos without pylons and other man made structures that dot California's vast, open and varied landscape. Now I include them as a reminder of how important it is for us to protect our wild and open spaces.
Simple pleasures of life!
Many thanks to all those who view, fav or comment my pictures. It is much appreciated.
This is a very enjoyable place to stop and spend some time while backpacking or day hiking in this area.
According to "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", 42 is the answer to "the ultimate question of life the universe and everything" - though no one knows what the question is. To me it's all much simpler than that! It's how long we've been married - 42 years ;o)
So we are celebrating this week. And one thing we did was to indulge our passion for glass, art glass, hand-blown glass. The artist whose work draws me is Elin Isaksson. Ice, snow, dewdrops, shoots - these are some of the shapes and textures that she draws on. Elin is Swedish, and she was trained in Sweden and Scotland, and works in Scotland. "Her ideas often develops after travelling back to the north of Sweden or along the coast of Scotland taking endless photographs as muse." No wonder her glass appeals to me ;o)
More shapes and colours are in the first comment field.
This photo is of a small blue and clear glass tea light - about 9.5cm/3.5" tall. Shot with a simple single light above. Shooting glass is one of the Simple Pleasure I enjoy, whether it is art glass or a plain wine glass ;o)

When the barista handed me my coffee from the drive-thru window today, I noticed this little crayon drawn heart peeking out. I said to him, "Did someone draw a heart on my cup?", to which he replied, "apparently so." This just made my day...someone took the time to brighten my day with this heart and that is very special.
Such a fine morning last Saturday that i cant help look through my images and see more that i like! Its a return to the magical weather we have not had lately so im just making the most of it whilst it lasts!

My contribution to "Simple pleasures" themed Flickr Friday.
Sky above our heads is like a random generator. There are so many interesting cloud types and you never know what you'll see there, tomorrow. On this day, beautiful wispy cirrus clouds decorated the neat, cyan sky. It was a simple pleasure!

Fridays remind us that happiness isn’t always about grand gestures—it’s often tucked into the small things. A soft breeze, a perfectly timed joke, the smell of a flower, the comfort of knowing that tomorrow can begin slowly. It’s in the anticipation, the unwinding, the embrace of joy without expectation.
So here’s to Fridays—the golden bridge between duty and delight. Whatever you do, however you celebrate, make room for the small magic. Because life is sweetest in the moments we take time to notice.
As I grow older and the Earth grows smaller, I realize how important it is to take the time to observe and enjoy the the simplest of pleasures. It is a difficult thing to do today in this hurry up, high tech world we live in.....but take the time to just sit by the edge of a pond or on an outcropping of a hillside and watch the sunset and enjoy the simple pleasures. It brings such joy.....and it doesn't cost a thing :-)

Placed on a black 20x20" ceramic tile near a double window. Natural light only for this shot.
Yesterday marked the beginning of a two and a half week break from work, and I could not be more excited to spend my time sleeping in, taking photos, exploring forests and beaches, and taking some time for myself! As soon as work ended yesterday, I went straight to the forest and spent a few hours exploring and taking photos. It felt so refreshing and I can't wait to do it again today!
