Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.

– Margaret Mead –

Do your little bit of good where you are; it's those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.

– Desmond Tutu –

Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.

– Dale Carnegie –

THE VOICE OF THE SEA SPEAKS TO THE SOUL!.

===================================

Thank you for your wonderful visits and comments!.

You all have a safe and pleasant weekday!.

We were out exploring with some friends who came for a visit when late in the day, we were visiting the Pender Harbour area.

"Oh, look at this", came the voice from the back seat of our car. The sun was low on the horizon and it was late afternoon. The voice noticed the cove we had entered, and the way the light was affecting the area. I stopped the car and said, "I am going to take a few pics".

We all got out of the car and mused about enjoying the scene in front of us. "Over here", said the voice. "You can get right down to the water", it continued. Sure enough, in place of mulling about the thorny rose bushes that guarded entrance, there was a way down to the waters edge. After setting up on this colorful place, Kayakers were on their way into my image. So, I waited until they were in the right spot and captured the scene. Thanks voice!

Listening Wilco - Jesus don´t cry

Isle of May

It's about time I posted photos of my big brother ... he is the reason I took up photography now more than 50 years ago. Today would have been his 73rd birthday but he left us at age 46. I won't bother with bemoaning and detailing how profound our loss was ... he wouldn't condone it if he were here.

We photographed together when time and circumstance allowed and I would often turn my camera to him as my subject. Two examples of my informal portraiture of him are in this diptych. Although I had no way of knowing it at the time, all of these extemporaneous portraits would become a treasure to me after his death. I return to them often to provoke good memories that deserve provocation for their goodness and if only to remind me of our times together and to serve as the 'voice in my ear' when I am editing my own work. I often look at my own images when deciding if they are 'keepers' by asking myself "what would my brother have said about them?" It keeps me honest in some mysterious and wondrous way ... thank you big brother and happy birthday. "Anon, or sooner!"

“Twilight campfighter

You build your fire into an open wound

You want us to feel better

On these darker trails

With light revealing holy grails

To hike through dangerous weather

You need twilight eyes”

Voices in My Head

Song by Falling In Reverse

Lyrics

The voices in my head keep on telling me to pray

'Cause I'm spinning like a carousel, circling the drain

Hit the bottom of the bottle, I don't wanna feel the pain

But that is all I got for now, I don't wanna talk about it

The voices in my head keep on begging me to stay

If I pull the trigger now then the demons go away

And I know my time is coming so there ain't no time to waste

So that is all I got for now, I don't wanna talk about it

The voices in my head keep telling me to choose a side

It's heaven or hell like it's do or die

I'm a sad boy, you know better

Please don't make this last forever

The voices in my head keep telling me I'm not okay

It's feeling like a hurricane in my brain

Dark clouds, hard times, bad weather

Please don't make this last forever

The voices in my head keep telling me I'm gonna (die)

And I don't wanna talk about the drama, I'm trauma (tized)

They're tellin' me I'm fine but we both know that's a fuckin' (lie)

I'm losing my mind but I don't wanna talk about it

The voices in my head keep giving me the worst advice

Kamikaze crash like a suicide

I'm a lost boy, you know better

Please don't make this last forever

The voices in my head keep telling me I'm insane

And maybe I'm a little bit, that won't change

Dark clouds, hard times, bad weather

Please don't make this last forever

The voices in my head keep telling me I'm gonna (die)

And I don't wanna talk about the drama, I'm trauma (tized)

They're tellin' me I'm fine but we both know that's a fuckin' (lie)

I'm losing my mind but I don't wanna talk about

The voices in my head keep telling me I'm cursed

I'm paranoid, I don't wanna make it any worse

We're all gonna die but first things first

I'ma take the world with me when they put me in the dirt

The voices in my head keep telling me I'm cursed

I'm paranoid, I don't wanna make it any worse

We're all gonna die but first things first

I'ma take the world with me when they put me in the dirt

Move

(Move)

Voices in my head keep telling me I'm cursed

I'm paranoid, I don't wanna make it any worse

We're all gonna die, first things first

I'ma take the world with me when they put me in the dirt

The voices in my head keep telling me I'm gonna (die)

And I don't wanna talk about the drama, I'm trauma (tized)

They're tellin' me I'm fine but we both know that's a fuckin' (lie)

I'm losing my mind but I don't wanna talk about it

The voices in my head keep on telling me to pray

'Cause I'm spinning like a carousel, circling the drain

Hit the bottom of the bottle, I don't wanna feel the pain

I'm losing my mind but I don't wanna talk about it

This is Peanut. I learned, yesterday, that it was the voice of a sandhill crane that was used for the velociraptors in the movie, Jurassic Park. When I clicked this frame, Peanut had been startled by a sound.

Voices of stone - One of the more solitary megaliths of the Ring of Brodgar sat under a dramatic cirrus laden summer sky.

27 stones remain from the original 60 vertical or standing stones of the ring, constructed circa 2500 BC with sockets and stumps of the missing stones clearly visible around the ring. Situated on an isthmus between the Lochs of Stenness and Harray, close to the Standing Stones of Stenness the area is littered with Neolithic features such as burial chambers and cairns.

One cannot fail to wonder of the history of this ancient landscape and the stories and voices hidden in the past.

Music when Soft Voices Die

By Percy Bysshe Shelley

Music, when soft voices die,

Vibrates in the memory—

Odours, when sweet violets sicken,

Live within the sense they quicken.

Rose leaves, when the rose is dead,

Are heaped for the belovèd's bed;

And so thy thoughts, when thou art gone,

Love itself shall slumber on.

(Shelley on Keats' death)

"When the green woods laugh with the voice of joy, and the dimpling stream runs laughing by;

When the air does laugh with our merry wit,

And the green hill laughs with the noise of it".

William Blake

ci sono cose in un silenzio

che non aspettavo mai

vorrei una voce

e improvvisamente

ti accorgi che il silenzio

ha il volto delle cose che hai perduto

e io ti sento amore

ti sento nel mio cuore
