It was great watching the last few surfers decide whether it was worth trying to catch one more wave, or to call it quits and head home. This surfer very reluctantly decided it was time to go.
Escapism it certainly can be. But that is not all. It does not necessarily mean to look the other way. Celebrating beauty and life, and the preservation of both, can also be an act of resistance, of not giving in to the rationality of industrialised death. Not shouting "hurrah", but taking care of life can be an expression of one's alternative approach. Beauty can be subversive, just like the dream of paradise can. Just think when you make your camera see beauty. Leica M Mono, Leitz Elmar 4/135 at F 5.6.
We just spent the morning setting up the tent for our church's Royal Rangers fireworks stand. That means I am not going to have a lot of time for Flickr over the next couple of weeks.
A photo taken two years ago now, but feels like yesterday since we were up here.
Happy Window Wednesday!
Memory is all about time travel. 2016 is full of memories but that was my favorite one. A glade in the forest offered me a unique view of the milky way, back in summer, up in the mountain of Parnonas. Lets make 2017 a year full of doing what we love the most.

We all need time to put our phones down and put our feet up. Distractions have never been more pronounced than nowadays. Gadgets to make our lives easier are really costing us valuable time that we could be using for ourselves. Although we need to find time for careers, family, household responsibilities both indoors and outdoors. Our bodies give us subtle hints but are we listening? Aches, pains, anxiety and poor sleep habits all take their toll. Sometimes we have to just say OK, now it’s “Time To Relax” and just do it. Your favorite chair awaits, I promise. So get those feet up, relax and give thanks for everything you love so dearly including Yourself.

When ever I see this trunk along the Ocean Beach Esplanade near Gibsons, I am left with a very uncomfortable feeling. It appears to have been there for as long as anyone can remember. It is lodged deep into the stoney beach, and looks out toward the ocean.
When the waves were rolling, and the sky leadened with clouds, I took this shot. There was a distinct white line across the horizon, and the dark clouds seemed to imitated the tossing waves. That is when it struck me, that this trunk was some sort of time traveler. It had both viewed and been a part of this scene, millions of times. And, it would do so long after we are gone. But on this day, it too seemed to have similar pitching lines to that of the ocean, and was part of the scene rather than a viewer.

Wanna see what the letter reads? Then head to my blog for that and a clearer picture of the collection.
In the hour when mist still owns the pines, the forest holds its breath. Scrub oak burns red against the gauze of morning, each leaf catching fire without flame, while pitch pines rise like sentinels into a sky not yet decided. This is the Pine Barrens in its oldest mood — patient, amber-lit, indifferent to time — a place that has always known how to be beautiful without asking permission.

Random Goodness Working Towards a Better World
As the week wears down and we need to unwind. Some folks go fishing. Some folks use Yoga or they may garden. We need something to get our heads out of the work mode and enjoy activities that interest us, stimulate us and motivate us outside of our jobs.
