I loved the barren trees along the lakeshore at this location, remnants of the 1988 forest fire. Such desolate beauty ...
The sliding here is from Pro HDR, an iPhone App ... with a touch of vintage tossed in. Still wading through all my trip photos ...
HSS!! Hope everyone is having an awesome Sunday!
Like everyone else, my thoughts have been on 9/11 this past week. I will never forget where i was and exactly what I was doing when I heard the first reports. Thinking of it right now gives me the chills.
On that day a nation was devastated.
Today, with the dedication of the 9/11 Memorial, a nation will come together on the 10th Anniversary to remember the victims and honor the courage of those who risked their lives to save others.
I did a lot of sliding to bring the light & color out of the shadows on this beautiful morning at sunrise. I spent a lot of time on this bench in solitude ... the only sounds the lapping of water, the cry of gulls and insects buzzing in the reeds ... contemplating life ... and now thinking how fortunate I am to be able to do this ... the freedom ... what freedom costs ... and how deeply thankful I am for all of it.

A dedication in honor of the lives lost on that fateful day ... to remind myself to 'never forget.'
Haruki Murakami's— "On Seeing the 100% Perfect Girl One Beautiful April Morning" #💕☔#🌿☁
...
One beautiful April morning, in search of a cup of coffee to start the day, the boy was walking from west to east, while the girl, intending to send a special-delivery letter, was walking from east to west, but along the same narrow street in the Harajuku neighborhood of Tokyo. They passed each other in the very center of the street. The faintest gleam of their lost memories glimmered for the briefest moment in their hearts. Each felt a rumbling in their chest. And they knew:
She is the 100% perfect girl for me.
He is the 100% perfect boy for me.
But the glow of their memories was far too weak, and their thoughts no longer had the clarity of fouteen years earlier. Without a word, they passed each other, disappearing into the crowd. Forever.
A sad story, don’t you think?
Yes, that’s it, that is what I should have said to her. .

"If we’re going to talk, then let’s talk. Forget about what is polite or proper and delve right into what is sincere and honest. Lead me down through the labyrinth of your true, spectacular self. I am not interested in pleasantries.
If you want a conversation, then let’s get lost." —@beautaplin, Real Talk
“Learning became her.
She loved the smell of the book from the shelves, the type on the pages, the sense that the world was an infinite but knowable place.
Every fact she learned seemed to open another question, and for every question there was another book.”
— Robert Goolrick
Saturday Night in Sausalito with Swee
A store window beckons with its flash of color just waiting for discovery. A sweep of red with complimentary and colorful highlights stands out in the reflected face of glass. An unexpected shape via the street light adds punctuation and a colorful neighbor tries to intrude adding more detail within the frame. Negative space allows rest for my eye and hides mysteries within its darkness. The sun does its job – showing off reflectively what I want to see and obscuring the rest.

DEPICTIONS: A tale of portraits
Before my marriage to landscape, I was a disciple of portraits.
I missed shooting portraits.
That is why I would like to share some of my collection of portraits taken during a trip with Manny Librodo in Pagsanjan.
I wanted to rekindle my love for portraits and here are some of my work...
Walking down the stairs this morning. #chasinglight #nature #leaf #dhanmondi #eavig
