“Seek out a tree and let it teach you stillness.”
― Eckhart Tolle ―
Wisdom comes with the ability to be still. Just look and just listen. No more is needed. Being still, looking, and listening activates the non-conceptual intelligence within you. Let stillness direct your words and actions.
― Eckhart Tolle ―

My Brilliant Image
by Hafiz
One day
the sun admitted,
“I am just a shadow.
I wish I could show you
The infinite Incandescence
That had cast my brilliant image!”
“I wish I could show you,
When you are lonely or in darkness,
The Astonishing Light
Of your own Being!”
then it's up to you to get the camera to see :-)

Being the national bird of Hungary, and capable of flying at speeds approaching 200mph I was delighted when this fabulous looking bird perched briefly to enable a few shots.

Many thanks to everyone that views and comments on my images - very much appreciated.
A person fully awakened to the jewel-like dignity of their own life is capable of truly respecting that same treasure in others.

after being gone almost a month, my daughter elora has returned from india....
my friend nathalie gave her an XA2 to take with to india because el wanted to shoot film.. this was shot in Udaipur using BW400CN film. i've never been a fan of this film in high-contrast light, but in this light it's simply amazing...
wow.
A black man has a lot to be scared of,....still. I'm very white myself. This Chameleon is saying a prayer as he walks through the wrong neighbourhood and being observed very intensly. It's the end of the branch.

While talking to a friend about what to take for a photo, this is what came from that conversation..

One of the greatest joys of travelling along the Lofoten islands besides its absolutely breathtaking nature and topography must be the many many MANY tunnels that links some of them or which lead the E10 through insuperable mountains. It became one of my pleasures to be at the ready with my cameras and shoot while we were inside. Soo much fun, especially since most of the time you are all by yourself, not a single other car at sight and where else does one have that pleasure?! :)
Happy Monochrome Monday!
Despite being tightly strapped down to the ground, this small aircraft didn't fare nearly as well as the seagulls during the storm! I think it was a total loss and I saw it being disassembled today.
Sorry for being so late, but too many tasks are keeping me on the run. I hope it will get better some day.
La Ceja, Colombia; 2.300 meters above sea level.
The red-bellied grackle is endemic to Colombia where it is found in all three Andean ranges at altitudes of 800 to 2,400m (2,600 to 7,900ft) above sea level.
Its natural habitat is tropical forest, but the trees are increasingly being felled for timber and to make way for agriculture, and little virgin forest remains within its range.
H. pyrohypogaster was formerly classified as "endangered" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature but in 2012 the threat level was lowered to "vulnerable". This is on the basis that, although its forest habitat remains under pressure, it has been found at some new locations where it was not known before. The total population is now estimated to be in the range 2,500 to 9,999 individuals.

my commenting will be off and on.
5 1/2 year old female Sumatran orangutan (Pongo abeli) named "Aisha" and 7 month old female siamang (Symphalangus syndactylus) named "Selamet" live with their families in a mixed-species exhibit at the San Diego Zoo.
The two little girls, though of different species, are developing a strong bond, with orangutan, Aisha, acting as a big sister.
Conservation status (orangutan): Critically Endangered.
Conservation status (siamang): Endangered
