… I think I run away sometimes

Whenever I get too vulnerable

That's not your fault (Yeah)

… See I wanna stay the whole night

I wanna lay with you 'til the sun's up

I wanna let you inside

Oh, heaven knows I've tried

… I wish that I could I let you love

Wish that I could let you love me

During my sunrise photoshoot at the open air park Zaanse Schans all at a sudden the fog came in high speed. There was no time to think, just shoot. It was fascinating to experience that everything was 'gone' in the mist. By the way, do you see the 2 ducks in the foreground at the right side? Zaan area, 2020.

 

Again, I would like to thank everyone for your support, views, faves and comments!

Spring

It's all about a New Beginning

 

Yesyes, it's only grass you might say

Lol, I haven't seen grass in months and I still have 1.5 meters with snow in my garden

So yes

This grass makes me high

And I haven't even tasted it yet

 

I won't take a photo after I tasted it either, hehe

The new year means a new beginning, like this group of young beech trees in the middle of a spruce forest.

There was a time when my homeland was covered with huge old beech forests. Forests that had grown over thousands of years. Not only were they the defining habitat, also for my ancestors, they were also an important part of our culture. My ancestors, the Germanic tribes, lived in these forests. The Romans can sing a song about how well adapted we were to this habitat.

The massive trunks of trees were the pillars of our cathedrals and our high priests read the signs from small sticks of beech wood (the beech stick formed later the the german word for letter).

But then came the industrial revolution and with it the insatiable hunger for fuel and fast-growing building materials and with it the invention of the spruce monoculture.

The forest fires and the bark beetle have been showing us how successful this grandiose idea was for several years. Human history is full of such overwhelming ideas and as you can currently see we are not through with them yet.

I'm all the happier when I see something like this. Young beeches, which establish their own biotope in the middle of the spruces and are getting ready to restore the old stable condition of the forest.

Unfortunately, this process will take another two or three hundred years and it will be difficult for me to photograph the final end result.

 

Das neue Jahr steht für einen Neuanfang, so wie diese Gruppe aus jungen Buchen mitten in einem Fichtenwald.

Es gab eine Zeit, da war meine Heimat bedeckt von riesigen alten Buchenwäldern. Wälder, die über tausende Jahre gewachsen waren. Sie waren nicht nur der bestimmenden Lebensraum, auch für meine Vorfahren, sie waren auch ein wichtiger Bestandteil unserer Kultur. In diesen Wäldern lebten meine Vorfahren, die germanischen Stämme. Die Römer können ein Lied davon singen, wie gut wir an diesen Lebensraum angepasst waren.

Die massiven Baumstämme waren die Säulen unserer Kathedralen und unsere hohen Priester lasen die Zeichen aus kleinen Stäben aus Buchenholz (daher schreiben wir mit Buchstaben - Buchen Stäbe).

Doch dann kam die industrielle Revolution und mit ihr der unstillbare Hunger nach Brennstoff und schnell wachsendem Baumaterial und mit ihm die Erfindung der Fichtenmonokultur.

Wie erfolgreich diese grandiose Idee war beweissen uns seit einigen Jahren die Waldbrände und der Borkenkäfer. Die menschliche Geschichte in voll von solchen überwältigenden Ideen und wie man gerade sieht, sind wir damit auch bis heute noch nicht durch.

Um so mehr freue ich mich, wenn ich so etwas sehe. Junge Buchen, die in Mitten der Fichten ein eigene Biotop begründen und sich bereit machen, den alten stabilen Zustand des Waldes wieder herzustellen.

Bedauerlicherweise wird dieser Prozess noch zwei-, dreihundert Jahre dauern und es wird schwer für mich das finale Endergebnis zu fotografieren.

今週末はとっても天気がいいのであちこちの公園に行ってみました。

こんな世の中でも「府中の森公園」に春は来ていました。

みんな嬉しくなって梅にスマホをかざしています。

The weather was very nice this weekend so I went to various parks.

Even in such a world, spring has come to "Fuchu Forest Park".

Everyone was happy and was shooting plums on their smartphones.

A leaf has already turned autumnal colors.

“Sometimes life takes unexpected turns. Sometimes we hide the very core of our existence because we fear the judgment of others. Sometimes the universe shifts and we are provided with a brief moment to begin anew. These moments allow us to become fearless and let our perfectly created souls shine.” ~New Beginnings

It is finely the beginning of waterfall season here in Minnesota which is always a very exciting time to me. I am reminded of how Christ makes everything new and breathes life into our dead lungs. For all things are made for Him and through Him which is stated in Colossians chapter 1. I am thankful for springtime and for warmer temperatures that are on the way. Have a blessed week everybody!

I needed something with the theme 'new beginnings' to have for the weekly theme challenge group and so I found myself scouring this years' folders and this one popped up. If the ripped and shattered bole of a tree torn asunder by a volcanic eruption and hence providing nutrition for new life doesn't fit the bill, what does? :)

 

I thought the well wishes this year would be more hearty and that this covid thing would be behind us now, but... with the infection rate skyrocketing maybe we will all build up an immunity and by mid year we can start travelling again, idk. In the meantime, stay safe, be healthy, love one another and maybe we can fist bump on the trail some time. Peace, Rich

 

Conwy fisherman making an early start.

Par. 237: Coming back to herself, she retained in her memory the sweetness of this contemplation, delighting in it, without, however, experiencing it again. And remembering what she had seen and understood, comforted by the indescribable divine sweetness, she reposed peacefully in the arms of the Beloved, burning with the fire of love. Then she understood the sense of the words cited above, but less by intelligence than by experience, with the purified eye of the spirit, and she became aware that she loved herself perfectly for Christ’s sake, but that there are few who reach this summit of perfect love.”

-Excerpts from Beatrice of Nazareth’s “Vita” and “The Seven Manners”

(WOMEN MYSTICS IN Medieval Europe Emilie Zum Brunn and Georgette Epiney-Burgard)

Take a leap of faith and begin this wondrous new year by believing
