Alles, was uns begegnet, läßt Spuren zurück. Alles trägt unmerklich zu unserer Bildung bei.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Everything we encounter leaves traces. Everything contributes imperceptibly to our education.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
"Don't just learn, experience.
Don't just read, absorb.
Don't just change, transform.
Don't just relate, advocate.
Don't just promise, prove.
Don't just criticize, encourage.
Don't just think, ponder.
Don't just take, give.
Don't just see, feel.
Don't just dream, do.
Don't just hear, listen.
Don't just talk, act.
Don't just tell, show.
Don't just exist, live."
(Roy T. Bennett)
Don't pretend. Be.

Another Halloween and another collaboration with Gwyn. As usual, I am asked to do a photograph but with little else given, so I show up and suddenly I am chased by a deranged witch, with a knife!
Such are the moments of SL.
Love's no pressure
When it's with someone who tends to
All of your emotions, don't you
Want someone who's there for you
Want someone who's there for you
Love always feels better when it's true
Love tastes way too bitter when it's you
I'm all out of love, you gave it away
I'm hoping that experience can get you to change
I'm hoping that experience can get you to change
I'm hoping that

The transcendental lighting, the deafening penetrating booming sound of interstate traffic passing overhead at midnight, on a hot summer night is a true ZEN experience.
The July fog across the Bison Range on the Flathead Reservation was one of the most beautiful experiences last year. Seeing the trees, the mountains, and even the bison themselves through the thick haze was .. honestly, there just aren't words for it. I was just incredibly fortunate to be there when I was.
I arrived in the early morning, nearly at sun up. By 9am, when most people ventured out from their status and made their way into the reserves, the fog had lifted and it was a more traditionally beautiful day for them.
But for me and the two or three other people in the park, it was a dream.

Sometimes I ride my bicycle through the places of strange calmness. It will force you to stop and unmount and observe. The forest communicate on strange levels with the soul. It keeps your counciousness out of the game, leaving only the weird sence of spiritual experience...
Northern class 150 unit 150104 (partnered with 150138) departs Blackpool South with the 3.16pm to Colne (2N78).
With a scheduled 4 minute turnaround at this terminus, there's barely time for the driver to walk from one end of the train to the other before setting off again. On this day the turnaround was even tighter seeing as arrival from Colne was 2 minutes late.
Blackpool South, with its single platform and evidence of former glories en route, is very much the Cinderella line into this popular northern seaside town. In fact a significant part of the remaining platform has been abandoned to nature, as seen in this shot. By contrast Blackpool North is vibrant, recently electrified, and boasts fast direct services to London Euston. No surprise It also handles the vast majority of passenger arrivals and departures.
I arrived into this station on a sunny Sunday afternoon and walked the two miles or so along the bracing, enjoyable and ever vibrant promenade before waltzing back inland to North Station for the rather faster ride back to Preston.
A bit of a record shot so I'm not expecting a ten from Len. Sure I spotted Madge though.....

“Semi lost place“ shopping mall with almost all shops abandoned. It is housing an art exhibition for two months at present. The beach scene must be part of that - or a remnant of the bankrupt travel agency?
This primeval scene is beside the Natchez Trace Parkway at mile 122, east of Canton, Mississippi. The National Park Service has provided a nice boardwalk to help the visitor experience this silent and gloomy place. In the lower right a few cypress knees can be seen protruding upward out of the water.
A cypress knee is a distinctive structure forming above the roots of a cypress tree of any of various species of the subfamily Taxodioideae. Their function is unknown, but they are generally seen on trees growing in swamps. Some current hypotheses state that they might help to aerate the tree's roots, create a barrier to catch sediment and reduce erosion, assist in anchoring the tree in the soft and muddy soil, or any combination thereof. (Source: Wikipedia)
Many years ago, the Pearl River flowed here but then changed course. A shallow area was created by the deposition of sediments as the river retreated. During periodic low water, seedlings of water-tolerant cypress and tupelo trees gained a foothold. The trees you see today are a result. Water tupelo and bald cypress trees can live in deep water for long periods. After taking root in the summer when the swamp is nearly dry, the seedlings can stay alive in water deep enough to kill other plants. (Source: www.nps.gov/places/cypress-swamp.htm)

I've finally made it to Grey Refuge, my last stop in this park! I'll be here for two nights. There are tons of adventures to be had around here. Today, my fourth day, I hiked a total of 13.5 miles (21.82 km) on two different trails. I still have two more days of hiking ahead. So, what am I going to do now that I'm here? The highest temperature today was 42.8 degrees Fahrenheit (6 degrees Celsius) and the lowest was 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius). First, a hot shower! Then, I'm going to unpack everything and hang up all my clothes. With my 50-liter (13.20-gallon) backpack now empty, I can head to the bar for a few pisco sours and catch up with the other hikers. After dinner, I'll warm up by the fireplace with a glass of cognac. And then, it's off to bed. The glacier and Grey Lake are only 2,362 feet (720 meters) away. I can hear the ice walls crashing into the lake. It's part of the Southern Patagonian Ice Field, the second largest extra-polar ice cap in the world. It's 17.4 miles (28 km) long and covers an area of over 105 square miles (270 square kilometers). It starts on the western side of the Patagonian Andes and ends at the shores of Grey Lake. On average, it's 98 feet (30 meters) high and about 3.7 miles (6 kilometers) wide.
Hiking summary:
Day 1: 18.6 miles (30 km).
Day 2: 10.6 miles (17 km).
Day 3: 14.3 miles (23 km).
Day 4: 13.7 miles (22 km).
Total for the first four days: 57.2 miles (92 km).

While Graham took Rufus out for his last prom, I took my soft drink outside onto the patio.
As I opened the door, I noticed our Collared Dove was on the table, so slipped back inside for my camera.
I spent about ½hr out there with it, while it had some bird seed and a drink. It didn't mind my camera at all and I began breathing again when it finally flew off!
An honour, privilege and just wow.
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :O)
