Dramatic moment on the tip of Madeira - the view back from Sao Lorenco. Arid earth, rain, wind and sea spray. 10 minutes later it was a clear blue sky.

I love to feel the power of nature or just to see and guess what it is capable of. Even if she is quite capable of worrying me a lot at times, because I am aware that I cannot do anything, absolutely nothing, to counter her.
It was the same here on the wet and slippery rocks on the banks of the Hubelj Waterfall in Slovenia, which I had only recently discovered by accident. During a rest I heard his noise from afar and then followed it.
And now I'm standing here and trying to squeeze this unbridled force into a picture while the masses of water raced past me with a loud roar (without slipping or accidentally knocking my camera into the river). An almost hopeless undertaking because you simply have to experience something like this yourself.
Ich liebe es die Kraft der Natur zu spüren oder auch nur zu sehen und zu erahnen wozu sie in der Lage ist. Auch wenn sie durchaus in der Lage ist mich zeitweise sehr zu beunruhigen, da ich mir bewusst bin Ihr nichts, aber auch garnichts entgegen setzen zu können.
So war es auch hier auf den nassen und rutschigen Felsen am Ufer des Hubelj Wasserfalls in Slowenien den ich kurz zuvor nur durch Zufall entdeckt hatte. Bei einer Rast habe ich von Weitem sein Rauschen gehört und bin diesem dann gefolgt.
Und nun stehe ich hier und versuche diese ungebändigte Kraft in ein Bild zu zwängen während die Wassermassen mit lautem Toben an mir vorrüber rassen (ohne abzurutschen oder meine Kamera versehentlich in den Fluß zu stoßen). Ein schier aussichtsloses Unterfangen denn so etwas muss man einfach selbst erleben.

Galatians 4:9 “But now, since you know God, or rather have become known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and bankrupt elemental forces? Do you want to be enslaved to them all over again?”
Elemental meeting.
This meeting of the Earth, sea and sky provides a dramatic landscape.
The photo was taken on the beach at Cromer, Norfolk, England. looking toward Overstrand.
The unusual shapes in the sand in front of me are the remains of SS Fernebo a Swedish ship that sunk in 1917 following an explosion.

I'm culling my images and digging in the archives. I really need to 'key word' my photos if I ever expect to find anything!
This was taken during a wander around a harbour whilst on holiday recently. I quite liked the simplicity of the lines and shapes as well as the subtle colours (C2150068)

THE SEEKER
I am in a house, I know it well, but I have never been there before. There is no light, just me. The halls are empty, it is without life, without the things to bring it to life, no pictures, no tables, no chairs. It is a bleak house, dark, shadows, and even the light that seeps through the cracks, is dark. In the middle of the room there is foreboding, it is under the floor. I feel my hair stand on end.
I look to the door, the door, into which one must never go.
I stand and know that I can't run, I can't hide, because the dark of the house, is outside too. And I know it's time to leave, but I find myself walking, walking toward the door, the door that I must never open, as it leads to the room, the room into which one must never go.
I am sweating, I want to call out, I am trying to scream, it's primal, but there is no sound, there is no voice. I am unable to call for help. I try to move my arms, but they are frozen.
I am though the door, the room that vibrates with fear, darkness - something is moving in the secret passage, the secret passage that lies beyond the room. It is a narrow corridor, and I am bending to walk into the passage, and it leads to a room above the house, in the attic, I feel the cold, it is icy, and I fear for my very soul - I feel the negative energy that seeping into my skin. I am trying to shout, trying to leave, trying to turn away, wanting to run. A shape emerges out of the wall, it comes to me, draining all the goodness from me, and I feel terrible fear and dread, I want to fight it, but I am helpless, I am powerless, I can't move, but I know now, I must face it, I must fight for my life, and every fibre in me is screaming - and I remember .
I have been here before, and it is always the same, when the presence comes I wake up screaming and sweating, my pulse is racing. I have been through this many times before, and I am shaking and quaking, but I realize - despite these confrontations - I do not wake up dead, just terrified, and I begin to feel that perhaps, perhaps, these is no danger here. I have spent nights telling myself before I fall asleep that if this dream comes to me again, meet fear with love.
Now I know I was dreaming. I am out of the icy house. I am awake, lying in my bed. I am calmer now, I try to move, but nothing happens. I can't move anything, but I can see my room, and I feel a rising panic, and I feel the icy cold. There is someone standing at the end of my bed, staring at me. I am trying to scream and move my arms, to wake up, nothing happens. I see him standing clearly in my room, he has followed me here .
Now I will need to fight, but I can’t move, and he can, what are the rules in this situation, I am powerless. It is terrifying. Move !, Move !, Run ! Nothing. Then I remember “Do not get angry, that gives it power”. I stop struggling, start to calm down. He isn’t moving or doing anything, he never has, he just stands there.
"Hi", I think to myself.
"Can you hear me" it says in a sweet peaceful voice.
Oh that's great, he isn't even hostile, he’s doing his best not to terrify me and here I am like a wild animal, scared of the unknown, that's just great. He has been coming to talk to me, to give me wisdom -but his presence has seemed so terrifying , that he can’t even talk to me. I guess he has been coming and waiting patiently for me to meet him with love, not anger and fear. Well this is embarrassing.
I didn't expect a dialog, and I am now wanting to wake up. It's not fear this time, this guy had a very calm and gentle voice, but James Bond just climbed through my window and I sensed things were only going to go downhill from here.
Note to self, you got to do something about the quality of your dreams - oh, and thanks for the lesson in love and fear.
PS - The next day, many, many years ago - we went swimming with friends in mountain pools. The river water in Africa is dark and you can’t even see your feet in the water. We swam across a large, deep pool. I jumped into a big pothole at the end of the pool. There was a waterfall crashing into one side of it and the sandy bottom felt soothing on my feet. No one else wanted to jump in, and I realized, I had forgotten to be scared. The dream sequence has never returned.
PPS – Lucid dreaming is common, and trying to wake up during a nightmare is too – the immobility comes from your body preventing you from sleepwalking in response to dream situations – so it can feel disturbing while dreaming, but it is a good self preservation mechanism that is there to protect you from real harm. So the fear is gone and I am happy to dream on. And I work with dreams and treat them as an active state. If something is bugging you, think about it before you sleep, it can help resolve while you are off to never, never land
