"Just take a pebble and cast it to the sea

Then watch the ripples that unfold into me

My face spill so gently into your eyes

Disturbing the waters of our lives

 

Shreads of our memories are lying on your grass

Wounded words of laughter are graveyards of the past

Photographs are grey and torn, scattered in your fields

Letters of your memories are not real

 

Well, sadness on your shoulders like a wornout overcoat

In pockets creased and tattered hang the rags of your hope

The daybreak is your midnight, the colours have all died

Disturbing the waters of our lives,

Of our lives, lives, lives"

Spirit Island is the iconic Canadian Rocky Mountains landmark on Maligne Lake.

It is located at the far end of the lake and the only way to get there is by charter boat or private non-motorized vessel.

It is definitely worth the trip, as the scenery really is magnificent.

The only problem is that they allow you only about 10 minutes on the island for taking pictures, so there is not a lot of scouting for good locations, so a lot of pictures are all similar to each other.

Beautiful, none-the-less.

There are significant weight restrictions for flying into Union Island and I don't have a compact travel tripod so I did the whole trip with just a 13" table top tripod. It worked better than I expected and forced me to work from a new, lower point of view.

Manhattan is the most densely populated and geographically smallest of the five boroughs of New York City. The borough is also coextensive with New York County, one of the original counties of the U.S. state of New York. Located near the southern tip of the State of New York, Manhattan is based in the Eastern Time Zone and constitutes both the geographical and demographic center of the Northeast megalopolis and the urban core of the New York metropolitan area, the largest metropolitan area in the world by urban landmass. Over 58 million people live within 250 miles of Manhattan, which serves as New York City's economic and administrative center, cultural identifier, and the city's historical birthplace. Residents of the outer boroughs of New York City often refer to Manhattan as "the City". Manhattan has been described as the cultural, financial, media, and entertainment capital of the world, and hosts the United Nations headquarters. Manhattan also serves as the headquarters of the global art market, with numerous art galleries and auction houses collectively hosting half of the world's art auctions.
