Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️❤️❤️

It has a way of touching everything.

At a time in my life, I would experience depression in the fall. The dying leaves and changes in color, and temperatures, were a forewarning of the cold winter weather to come.

Today I see splendor in the natural cycle that must take place for the trees to survive. The veins that supply water to the leaves shrink, to preserve the tree. Thus the leaves change color and die. And come spring, the veins reopen, as the tree gives life and blossoms once again. This cycle is amazing.

Take thee even or take thee odd, I would not sleep here if I could,

Except for the memories and the stillness that now resides.

Bryce Canyon National Park, a sprawling reserve in southern Utah, is known for crimson-colored hoodoos, which are spire-shaped rock formations. The park’s main road leads past the expansive Bryce Amphitheater, a hoodoo-filled depression lying below the Rim Trail hiking path. It has overlooks at Sunrise Point, Sunset Point, Inspiration Point and Bryce Point. Prime viewing times are around sunup and sundown.

PS: with the people on the left

I can't breathe, I'm waiting for the exhale

Toss my pain with my wishes in a wishing well

Still no luck, but oh, well

I still try even though I know I'm gon' fail

Stress on my shoulders like an anvil

Perky got me itching like an anthill

Drugs killing me softly, Lauryn Hill

Sometimes I don't know how to feel

Ring-ring, phone call from depression

You used my past and my memories as a weapon

On the other line, I talk to addiction, huh

Speaking of the devil, all the drugs, I miss them

This can't be real, is it fiction?

Somethin' feels broke, need to fix it

I cry out for help, do they listen?

I'ma be alone until it's finished

This is the part where I tell you I'm fine

But I'm lying, I just don't want you to worry

This is the part where I take all my feelings and hide 'em

'Cause I don't want nobody to hurt me

Sometimes I just wanna shoot something scenic. Through the eye of the lens even things decayed have a natural beauty about them.

on the verge of depression

You are working so hard, trying to remember what the light looks like even when you can’t see it, even when you can’t look up, even when you can’t open your eyes. You capture the light for incredibly difficult moments like this when you’re not sure how you will be able to continue on, to help yourself remember what the light looks like, what the light feels like.

I took 32 images of this composition, I achieved this photo after the 6th image and another 26 images chasing a recreation of the effect, I didn’t, I came close but no cigar. I didn’t envisage this photo before I took it, it was the result of experimentation. The composition of a single exposed rock was chosen to line up with mist muted sun radiating across the sea using a reverse ND grad. Right exposure but the shutter speed was too fast so I added a 6 stop ND filter, this slowed the shutter speed from 1/10 of a sec to 1.3 seconds with a couple of tweaks of the ISO, then hey pesto this lovely whirlpool effect around the rock, as soon the dark image flashed on the lcd I knew I had something, it was a bit different and so I found out not to be repeated. Have a nice weekend.

This can be a tough time of the year for many people.

I know the devastation that depression can do to you and your loved ones.

Last night I was at the bar. Everyone was normally drink beer. Yesterday we drank vodka, Fernet and tulamore. Tulamore no longer. Everything we drank. WHY? Lawyer, a truck driver, programmer (that's me) and random prostitute. We are all depressed! The truck driver told how to carry pipes to the city of Dachau. We increased depression and we drank and drank and drank!

I'm struggling to keep one foot moving in front of the other lately. Depression is my constant companion, gnawing at my insides and pressing heavily on my soul as I try to face the day in a world for which I've lost all hope. Vancouver's relentless dark days and torrential rain are not helping.

During the Great Depression my mother’s parents did everything they could think of to keep their family fed and sheltered. Among other things Grandma became a dressmaker in their home and Grandpa made jewelry. My mother passed these earrings along to me before she died.

"... nelle doline, che sono delle depressioni carsiche che si trovano frequentemente in Lessinia e sugli altipiani veneti, l’aria forma un cuscinetto freddo che si mantiene, a patto che il cielo non sia coperto, che non ci sia vento e che al suolo ci sia neve, specie se fresca, che con un’albedo (coefficiente di riflessione della luce) molto elevata permette un rapido raffreddamento del suolo".

In questa dolina di Malga Malera sono stati superati più volte in inverno i -30°C. In basso nella foto si vede la centralina di misurazione della temperatura.

Wide look at the Highway Concourse & Retaining Wall (now affectionately known as the "Castle") at Gooseberry Falls State Park.

The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) built this, and other major and minor park features in the 1930's as part of the New Deal that was designed to get men back to work during the Great Depression.

Gooseberry Falls State Park is located in Castle Danger, north of Two Harbors, Minnesota on Scenic Highway 61.

My depressive peak that has been devastating me for several weeks seems to be coming to an end. It's a hard work on myself, and I wouldn't have the strength without my loved ones, and psychological help.

Pascal Quignard said that the only cure for depression is depression. To say it differently, I would say that the scars left by it are like the golden joints of the art of Kintsugi.
