“We are nothing but shadows

Fading away

Trying to hold on to

This bittersweet life

That we call our own...”

― Ricky Mears

A very simple photo , but the simplicity of the ocean and coastlines are my happy place. Just your basic sea, sky, sand.

In solitude, I find solace by the sea,

Where peace whispers its tranquil melody.

The ocean's embrace, a sanctuary deep,

Where worries fade and souls, sweet release.

Hope everyone is having a great week.

Passion is the quickest to develop, and the quickest to fade. Intimacy develops more slowly, and commitment more gradually still.

Then summer fades and passes and October comes. We'll smell smoke then, and feel an unexpected sharpness, a thrill of nervousness, swift elation, a sense of sadness and departure.

This corn field in the city of Oshkosh, Wisconsin, is dressed in harvest attire. I looked into the setting sun over the field from my car as I waited for the traffic light to signal my advance. The scene seemed worthy of Flickr. With my camera by my side I quickly framed the image and snapped before driving on.
