A low perspective on Spirit Island and the box canyon it sits in at the south end of Maligne Lake.
Spiritual: relating to or affecting the human spirit or soul as opposed to material or physical things."
Standing here moved me and felt like I was standing in the middle of the grandest Cathedral or Mosque in the world.
The lake was named by
Father Pierre-Jean De Smet, Maligne meaning "wicked or malignant" in French. The harsh winters and turbulent passage of it's outlet to it's confluence with the Athabasca River were probably why he named it so. Seems it should have been called "Magnifique Lake" to me.
"The island is a spiritual place for the Stoney Nakoda First Nation, who believe mountains are physical representations of their ancestors. The fact that Spirit Island is surrounded on three sides by the same mountain range is very rare and makes it particularly significant to the Stoney."

Smile. For me all I have to do to have a spiritual experience is go outdoors. I am blessed beyond measure.

THANKS!
A great first day of lifted lockdown yesterday. A morning looking for adders and an afternoon watching giant clouds fly across the sands. A real spiritual healing. Watching clouds is such a wonderful obsession. Spiritual Healing is by Toots and the Maytals
“Captain Jack will get you high tonight
And take you to your Special Island
Just a little push,
And you’ll be smiling…”
~Billy Joel~ from his song “Captain Jack”
On a peninsula, actually an ancient
Sandbar, where the Halifax River and the
Tomoka Basin come together, Tomoka
exudes special kind of spiritual magic.
You’re not sure if it’s in an estuary or a
swamp with tidal fluctuations. It has
Blue Claw Crabs, Dolphins, Manatees
and Gators.
At low tide you could walk through
this murky estuary creek to visit this
this special little island… If you dare.
Please don’t feed the Gators, though.

Snow builds on the roof of the little Yosemite Chapel.

We are biologically, cognitively, physically, and spiritually wired to love, to be loved, and to belong. When those needs are not met, we don't function as we were meant to. We break. We fall apart. We numb. We ache. We hurt others. We get sick.

Sometimes I ride my bicycle through the places of strange calmness. It will force you to stop and unmount and observe. The forest communicate on strange levels with the soul. It keeps your counciousness out of the game, leaving only the weird sence of spiritual experience...
I love the short drive down to the coast an hour before sunset, as you reach the coast road at Ogmore by sea and head east, you can see what the light and clouds have in store. On this night, the sun was lighting up the limestone cliffs , and the dark blue hail clouds beyond was beautiful. Thin wisps of low cloud also caught the last suns rays, providing Spiritual Healing, by Toots and the Maytals . Nature is the best tonic.
The road to a new normal is a race won with perseverance and prayer, not speed . The one who finds the spiritual discipline to realize that he or she cannot do this on their own is the one who will find the strength of the one who is, who was, and who will be. In letting go and trusting our Creator to be our dragonslayer we will overcome what seems unsurmountable. In plain english, when we are weak, our Creator’s strength can be made visible.

Forest fires and the resulting smoke have been a big deal in Canada since early spring and we certainly encountered it on our recent trip west - having to change plans because of road closures and contending with a smoky haze that irritated the lungs and made us and everything in the car smell like a campfire. It was particularly bad in British Columbia's Thompson Valley and Ontario - extending all the way from Kenora in the north down to Toronto and across the border into the US.
This image is from the west coast of Vancouver Island - the furthest point we were able to go. A couple of things attracted me to this scene - the layers in the landscape and the taller trees in the upper right - the few left standing on the edge of clearcut logging.
Old growth forest is something to behold - full of large trees, large ferns, large sections of mosses - pretty well large everything. I find it spiritual.
Out of Scone west on the Bunnan road , which eventually comes out at Merriwa, this feature is clearly visible from the roadside. It being council property and not private , I jumped the fence and went in for a closer shot. It is a place called Owen's Gap , it feels very spiritual and wouldn't surprise me if the local indigenous tribe utilised this place in the past
This park is located on the Great Plains in Alberta on the border between Canada and the United States of America. The Hoodoos can be found throughout the coulee where the Milk River winds it’s way. Hoodoos are rock sculptures carved out by erosion over time. This place has much spiritual meaning to the Blackfoot nation who used to live here. They help to maintain the integrity of this site. The Blackfoot people believed that when you saw a “face” in the rock, it was a spiritual connection to someone who has passed on. We spent a day walking among the hoodoos and we truly felt there was something special here.
The first time I ever witnessed northern lights, or the aurora borealis, was in 2007. It was totally unexpected and I was ill-prepared for photographing them. The next night I came armed with knowledge as to how to capture them. It was a most spiritual moment ... or should I say hours, for Tom and I. From our campsite we photographed for a bit, but soon got lulled into the experience versus the quest of the image. We gathered some blankets and lots of layers of clothes and laid down on our picnic table and just stared up at nature's light show. It's something that has forever etched itself into my soul. Of course, over the years of visiting Alaska, we have been treated to other sightings and displays as well, such as this one.
Auroras are naturally occurring events related to solar flares. They can present in a variety of shapes, colors, and durations. Each one is different ... each one is special. For those who have witnessed them, you know what I mean. <3
Happy Sunday to all ... hope that have a great one.

That's a view into the cupola of one of two cone-shaped parts of church St. Josef in Holzkirchen, Bavaria. It was created by Munich architect Eberhard Wimmer and is seriously one of the most beautiful churches I've ever seen so far.

Rila monastery, Bulgaria, a popular spot to visit, but it's free of the tourist crowds at night, there's a basic but cheap and perfectly adequate place to stay just outside the monastery. Unfortunately it's not allowed for the public to go up to the upper floors, where the view would have been much better.
Waddell Memorial Presbyterian Church is a Gothic building located in Rapidan, Virginia. I checked my PhotoPills app and saw that the Milky Way would be oriented right "behind" the building last night, so I headed over there in hopes of getting a nice shot with the church in the foreground.
I used the Pentax K-1's built-in Astrotracer to extend the Milky Way exposure to 172s, which yielded some good color and detail in the galactic core with minimal star trailing.
Thanks and Happy Labor Day evening to my American friends! :)
