When you’ve lost everything and all the initial feelings wear off and thoughts are processed, it can feel like your drowning. How did you end up sinking so deep? How are you going to get back to the surface for a breath of air? Are you going to get back at all, or is this how and where it ends? Is everything over?
No matter how far it feels, this is a fight for your life. You have to push, you have to fight! One more kick, one more stroke! Keep going! You won’t be defeated, not this time. You can make it. You’re good enough to do this. Don’t worry about what comes next, don’t stress over what came before, just make it up to catch your breath. You’ll be ok. Just don’t... give.. up...
Parce que je suis dépouillée, je n'ai plus rien
Dépouillée, je n'ai plus rien
Dépouillée, je n'ai plus rien
Et je coupe enfin les cordes

Have you ever felt like no matter how many people you've been there for in your lifetime when they needed someone, that no one seems to be there for you when you really need a friend? Are you the first person who volunteers to help, and feel like you're the last person who gets any help back? When you're in your hour of need, do you notice people tending to look the other way instead of putting their hand on your shoulder and telling you it'll be ok?
It's really hard when you've hit rock bottom and realize who your friends really are, in some cases you may not have any at all. Not real ones. It's these moments that show who someone really is, any one can pretend to be your friend when you're on the top of the world, when there's something they can gain from being close to you. The others make you feel even more alone, tossed out, rejected as they carry on without you.
If you're reading this, and you ever need a friend, or a shoulder to cry on, I'll be there for you.
The Soul of black and white Pictures ONLY
After you've been forced to change paths it's easy to feel lost, alone, and afraid in the darkness. Naked and vulnerable, exposed for the world to see and judge, all defenses stripped bare and left open like fresh wound, to feel anything other than afraid would just be bad instincts. It's okay to be scared, it's okay to feel afraid, this is when you should feel frightened, this trial will test you and try to break you.
Whether it succeeds is up to a number of factors, none of them bigger than your own willingness or unwillingness to give up. Other people may or may not be able to, or choose to help you, but no one will ever be a bigger factor than you will be for yourself. None of us are in complete control of our destiny, even the very most successful people have setbacks and take losses, but how we respond to those losses in the end is what defines us and determines if we spend the rest of our lives naked and afraid, or back in the driver's seat of our lives.

Who knew that the simple parking lot of a strip mall could provide the backdrop for the magnificent panorama of a summer-storm sunset?

You know, I love it, when the music's loud
But c'mon, strip that down for me, baby
Now there's a lot of people in the crowd
But only you can dance with me
So put your hands on my body
And swing that round for me, baby
You know, I love it when the music's loud
But c'mon, strip that down for me
Oh, strip that down, girl
Love when you hit the ground, girl
Oh, strip that down, girl
Love, when you hit the ground
All losses are caused by different reasons, but a select few of them happen because something was straight out taken from us, or we were taken ourselves. Imagine being not only stripped of your clothes, your dignity, and your pride, but also being forced to go along for the ride. A ride that involves no acceptance, no going with the flow, no ability to fight, just being absolutely forced to comply with everything and everyone being taken from you.
This can all be metaphorical to describe a situation in your life, but it can also be exactly what it describes. Sex trafficking is still a very real thing and is one of the worst kind of losses you can go through as a human being. Did you know that over 27 million people a year are forced into jobs, not just sexual ones, but hard labor jobs as well? You hear about the numbers sometimes of women and girls forced to be sex slaves, but you don't hear about the number of slaves working on farms, ranches, in mines, and this doesn't even include the number of inmates locked up on bogus crimes and forced to do the jobs society has deemed undesirable. Silenced, subdued, shackled, and sometimes raped repeatedly, there are depths a person can fall into that are unimaginable while the rest of the world declares "We should do something." While sipping their starbucks, and going to get a massage on the weekend at the spa from one of the trafficked women in town.
Next time you feel like you've lost everything, just remember there's a lot further you could fall, and your situation can most likely be fixed a lot easier than some other people's darkest days.
The strip of field which always seems to be left fallow, and always full of wild flowers too. more rain again today.
Looks like we have a severe weather warning in place, big storm Francis with winds of 70MPH and heave rain, it may pass North of my location in Sussex but we shall see. Storms in summer sounds crazy so hold onto your hats .
I was out shooting this morning @ 5am and drove past a small airport as the sun was starting to glow. This is the main landing strip covered in a foggy mist.

Another grand tree in Moonshine Park on the Hutt River.
Starkly beautiful in the early morning light.
I had some FUN with kids telling how "Möbius strip" works, and letting them practice with the red thing.
If you haven't heard about "Möbius strip" which was discovered by the German mathematicians August Ferdinand Möbius and Johann Benedict Listing (each one discovered independently) in the late 19th century, you may find from the internet.

Low morning sun at Bottle Alley in Hastings, East Sussex, UK. Fellow photographer Roff Smith was just setting up for a morning shoot having arrived by bike in his customary fashion. I took the opportunity to use him as a focal point and to try to add some depth to the shot. Canon EOS 6D & EF 28-80mm f/2.8-4.0L. In Explore 30/03/2022
A former champion of the forest stripped bare for all to see. How the mighty have fallen. Still a magnificent specimen, and for once in conditions that gave this hero the atmosphere he deserved
A spectral Christmas Eve walk at Ivinghoe Beacon.
Despite knowing this walk so well, there were a couple of moments when I lost my bearings in this blanket of fog.
A lot of the farmers around here introduced 3 metre conservation strips around their fields a number of years ago. The idea is to encourage the return of the many endangered species of farmland birds that declined following the introduction of intensive farming techniques. Certainly it seems to have worked with good populations of Skylarks, Meadow Pipits, Yellowhammers and Corn Buntings at this location. Not that I saw any in this pea souper!
