I imagine some here are familiar with the poetry, essays, and books of the author and farmer, Wendell Berry, of Kentucky. He is a favorite author of mine, and it was a privilege to meet him once about twenty years ago. This is his poem.
THE PEACE of WILD THINGS
Author, Wendell Berry
When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting with their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.

The first month of 2025 has been an essay in how cold we can get! Although we are on the same latitude as Moscow, we do have the warming influence of an ocean around Scotland's shores. So we probably shouldn't complain, but of course we do 😊
-16c was the lowest we managed - and snow a foot deep. So we were quite home-centred, and shooting, even in the garden, was quite an adventure. After keeping ourselves warm, we spent a lot of time trying to ensure our garden birds survived too. Icy weather for a few days is not too bad - but when it extends to 2 or 3 weeks, they were suffering. Both water and food froze solid so quickly!
So there are a lot of white images in the monthly collage! I used one snow bokeh image as the background for the collage. Happily the group challenges gave me inspiration for indoor and tabletop still life shots, as we felt the memories of 'lockdown' returning 😊
February is beginning with the same sub-zero world, though much of the snow has gone. But we are looking forward to a very early and very warm Spring! Well - we can dream!
As ever - many thanks to everyone who has visited my photostream and for the comments and faves.

Sublime Essay.
Modo dicitur infinitum dissimilium partium aquae demonstrationes immobilem intermedia absurdas rationes animadverti mutationes,
попередні аргументи вниз напрямки труднощі регіони необхідні пересування довільні місця розумні позиції особливих величин чіткі лінії,
le divisioni percepiscono modi diversi di ostacolare le distinzioni che possiedono conseguenze che ruotano i sistemi all'interno delle parti simultanee del confine,
la légèreté infinie suppose que les masses tiennent grandes les grands poids proportionnels du raisonnement proportions inverses temps égal temps continuellement décroissant,
vernietigbare referenties toegepaste woorden predikeren moeilijkheden evenredige afmetingen maximale toepassingen mogelijke kwantiteit overwegingen,
発言位置の確認は世界の高度な制限障害アカウントセンターは自然な場所で異議を唱えます無関心な四肢は作家の重い事実を想定重い事実.

I'm still making my images using an old and simple 2009 version of photo manager software produced by ACDSee. And during the last two decades I've used it to produce 37,538 original image variations, only 4589 of which appear on Flickr - the rest sit on my hard-drive and now serve as an almost endless source of raw material for new abstracts. Not sure what to do about using AI to produce artwork. This old guy may just continue to use his 2009 copy of ACDSee. Cheers. H

I think I found my next photo essay. Interesting cars with my hasselblad. A very easy target though. This will be a work in progress.

At the start of this year when Graham’s 318 Coffee House in Geneva reopened after major renovations I popped in to tell the owner Bob how much I admired the new look. I mentioned that I especially enjoyed the meandering path that leads to the front door. I wondered aloud if it was deliberately made with such tight curves in order to slow folks down, as in some Japanese garden designs where paths can sometimes take an unexpected or abrupt turn in an effort to slow down the walker and make them more conscious of their surroundings. Bob replied that while that’s a beautiful principle that he was unfamiliar with, the real reason for the tight meander here is more functional: should the path from the sidewalk to the front door be a straight line, it would be too steep a grade for wheelchairs to make. I found this an interesting example of how our manufactured surroundings are a vibrant mix of both the aesthetic and the practical.

My recent visit to Melbourne for Father’s Day was to catch up with my parents. Especially so with my father who is suffering enormously from prostate cancer and complications from skin cancer surgery. He is 88 years old, and has been under treatment for nearly three years now. Of course a recent bout with Covid by both my parents has not helped matters, and my father is back in hospital right now.
During that time I was reading about the work of American photographer Stephen Shore who describes how he tries to, “take photographs that feel like the way we see”.
“Stephen Shore: Taking photographs that feel like seeing” www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5xAxqbtz9o
So over coming days I will present a photo essay which tells something of what my parents are going through at the moment. This will mean putting their predicament into a social and domestic context, which although very comfortable in a material sense, is placing before them existential questions of significance.
They are both people of profound faith who have served God all their lives, and yet they find their end to be filled with pain and suffering – physical, emotional and spiritual. Prayer is an important component of their lives, and yet never before have their prayers seemed so powerless.
* You will need to follow these images in reverse order from this title page.
[I realise that the Flickr format is not conducive to such a photo essay, and I know that many people will not be bothered following the story. But I genuinely want to thank those of you who do and have expressed your concerns over recent times. I very much appreciate it.]

Candide depuis quelques années avec des photos qui me semblent aujourd'hui si dérisoires, me sentant complètement incapable de traiter un tel sujet ... je vais essayer avec cette série de transcrire ce que j'aurais donc oser capter durant notre marche de rassemblement.sur Dieppe ce dimanche matin glacial mais si bien réchauffé par une foule si attachante, calme, debout et décidée à démontrer son refus à toutes pensées autoritaire, fanatique et meurtrière.
Entre une peine énorme et paradoxalement une joie indescriptible à être un homme parmi d'autres hommes défendant ce que nous avons de plus précieux : notre liberté de ... penser par soi même !
et notre soif d'autoriser toutes dérisions.
Même mes photos dérisoires !
...
Candide recent years with pictures that seem now so ridiculous, feeling completely unable to handle such a subject ... I'll try with this series to transcribe what I have so daring capture during our gathering on. Dieppe Sunday frosty morning but warmed by so many endearing, quiet, upright and determined to demonstrate his refusal to all authoritarian thoughts, fanatical and murderous.
Between a huge pain and paradoxically indescribable joy to be a man among other men defending what we most precious our freedom to think for yourself ...!
and our thirst to allow all derision.
Even my ridiculous pictures!
