After this, knowing that everything had now been accomplished, and to fulfill the Scripture, Jesus said, “I am thirsty.” A jar of sour wine was sitting there. So they soaked a sponge in the wine, put it on a stalk of hyssop, and lifted it to His mouth. When Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished.” And bowing His head, He yielded up His spirit.
- John 18,1-40.19,1-42.
Knowing what to let go of is just as important as knowing what to keep. To me, it's all hard. It's tough to let go... of anything. But I will. Let it go.
Had some ideas for some new "Window shots" tonight, but decided I needed a nap after work and by the time I headed up to my window, I had lost the good light... and as I was trying to take some pictures anyway, shooting from the inside of an abandoned house, out the window, I see a bear walk by. He walked right up to my car and I was thankful that I didn't have any snacks in there because the windows were all open. I went out to try to get a picture, but I didn't think fast enough to change my camera settings, so all I have are photos of a big black blur... and as I turned to go back into the house, there was another one. I was kind of glad to not be standing out there in the open... happy to have "my house" to duck into!
Knowing how Frodo likes to sit at this window at night and look out, I decided to have my camera set up ahead of time and wait for him to show up.
It wasn't long before he jumped up, plopped down and looked out, keeping a close watch on everything. Most likely, waiting for Santa to see what goodies he'll get this year.
As you can see, our neighbors across the street are ready, too, with all their outdoor decorations and flashing lights.

Jakob Grimm, in his Teutonic Mythology, maintained that "Ostara, Eástre, was goddess of the growing light of spring." Holy water in the form of the dew, or water collected from brooks, was gathered at this time; washing with it was said to restore youth. Beautiful maidens in sheer white were said to seen frolicking in the country side. Also according to Grimm, the white maiden of Osterrode was said to appear with a large batch of keys at her belt, and stride to the brook to collect water on Easter morning. Ostara is usually experienced as a young maiden wreathed in flowers or new greenery, and often dances. She is often joyous, but can just as easily turn suddenly solemn, like the spring weather that can quickly turn to rain. Like Spring itself, she is capricious, innocent and knowing by turns. Hail to the Maiden of Spring, the dawning of the year! Bring freshness into all our lives. The Wheel of the Year is an annual cycle of seasonal festivals, observed by many modern Pagans, consisting of the year's chief solar events (solstices and equinoxes) and the midpoints between them. While names for each festival vary among diverse pagan traditions, syncretic treatments often refer to the four solar events as "quarter days" and the four midpoint events as "cross-quarter days", particularly in Wicca. Differing sects of modern Paganism also vary regarding the precise timing of each celebration, based on distinctions such as lunar phase and geographic hemisphere. Observing the cycle of the seasons has been important to many people, both ancient and modern. Contemporary Pagan festivals that rely on the Wheel are based to varying degrees on folk traditions, regardless of actual historical pagan practices. Among Wiccans, each festival is also referred to as a sabbat, based on the term was passed down from the Middle Ages, when the terminology for Jewish Shabbat was commingled with that of other heretical celebrations. Contemporary conceptions of the Wheel of the Year calendar were largely influenced by mid-20th century British Paganism.

Before knowing the weather condition of the Himalayan region we should understand its geography. The Himalayan region covers an area of 2,250 km with an average width of 200 km.
The forest belt of the Himalayan region consists of Oak, Rhododendron, Birch, Pine, Deodar, and Fir. And the monsoon season in this region lasts for mid June till the end of September. The Himalayas influences the meteorological conditions in the Indian subcontinent to the south and in the Central Asian highlands to the north to a great extent. It acts a climatic divider circulating the air and water system to a great extent. Because of its altitude and location it blocks the passage of the cold winds coming from the north to the Indian sub continent thereby making India's climate much more moderate. It also influences the rainfall pattern in India. The combined effect of rainfall, latitude and altitude largely influences the forests belts in the Himalayan region. The rainfall is mostly recorded during the monsoon time of June to September but it decreases as you travel from east to west. The snow-capped ranges of the Himalayas stretch 2, 250 km from the Namcha Barwa to Nanga Parbat on the Indus. The range extends from east to west up to central-Nepal and then takes a southeast to northwest direction.

Knowing that the local would have to clear the line first. I knew I had a chance if I hurried I could pull this shot off. I was happy with the results.
Yet another shot from the Poovar collection. This is when we decided to walk further along the road (From the twilight zone) to explore the place more. We came across a place where there was a bend in the road and I immediately knew that this was an ideal spot for someone to walk into the frame and for me to click.
Please let me know your comments and suggestions on how I could improve this image. Thanks for all your visits and comments.
Knowing the hummingbirds are about to leave, I'm making sure the feeder is filled with fresh nectar so they can fill 'er up to their hearts content.
As of Oct 9th, they are still here. Any day now and they'll be gone until next year. Captured this female Ruby throated Hummingbird checking out several ports as if to see if one tasted better than another.
Knowing trees, I understand the meaning of patience. Knowing grass, I can appreciate persistence.

Candid eye contact and a knowing smile from Glasgow, Scotland. Enjoy!
A spectral Christmas Eve walk at Ivinghoe Beacon.
Despite knowing this walk so well, there were a couple of moments when I lost my bearings in this blanket of fog.
Knowing that Prague is very popular, we deliberately visited there in the shoulder-month of October - and it still the city was overrun with tourists (knowing full well, we are part of the epidemic). On this particular evening, a slight fog had rolled over the river and near-by bridge and structures - to my delight. Enjoy!

Often what we cannot see is more intriguing than what we can see. I know it is that way for me.
I still love to shoot film on my Leica M6 TTL rangefinder camera. It may take me a week or more to make 36 exposures, and then I send the exposed film to a lab in California to be developed and scanned. So I know I've made 36 photographs, but I cannot see them for quite a while. I like the suspense of not knowing what I'm going to get, but yet knowing I will be getting some photographs one day.
Faith works the same way for me. What I cannot see is more intriguing than what I can see -- not that what I can see isn't often beautiful or inspiring -- it is. Faith is hard to explain to someone who is an unbeliever. I probably cannot convince an unbeliever how I know God created all we see and experience around us, but I do know I believe it to be true, and I know that God is near to me. I know that one day I will leave this body and this earth and immediately be transformed into the likeness of God, and that I will know Him and He will know me. And the suspense and time I wait to know that only makes it more interesting to me. I think about it every day.
As for this photograph, there is an open door, a foot and and two legs. I did look when I walked by after making this photograph. But I'm not telling you what I saw. It would ruin the photograph.

Knowing that MAWA had left Keag and it had three 6 axles on it I decided to head out. Light was fading fast after a lengthy crew change in Old Town. I had just enough light for a shot at the bridge in Veazie. Two ex-QNS&L SD40-2's bracket a GE C40-8.
Thecla expressed interest in the mystery flesh pit, hence I took her there and she also died in the lair of the flesh monster.

Knowing the hummingbirds usually leave about the first week of October, I decided to see if I could grab some shots this afternoon.
No sooner had I approached my "blind" than this female Ruby-throated Hummingbird flew up to the feeder.
Not sure if she saw me, but over the next thirty minutes or so, she saw and chased hummingbird after hummingbird away from HER feeder. She was staked out in the nearby camellia bush to keep a very close eye on all trespassers.
Taken through the backdoor window so not as clear as I'd like.

Thank you for taking the time to look at, comment on, and fave my photographs. Come say hello on Instagram if you like.
I had the opportunity to shoot Nguyễn Vân (Alina), a Vietnamese model and actress. The theme of the shoot: ‘A day in the life of Vân‘. This photo was taken at Bà Thiên Hậu Pagoda, an 18th-century buddhist temple honoring a sea goddess, featuring colorful, ornate Chinese architecture.
Nguyễn Vân is the face of 500px for March!
Every month one photographer will have their photo selected to be the face of 500px, the leading online network for photographers with over 15 million members worldwide. I am thrilled to be sharing with you that one of the photos I took of Vân was selected as the winning photo for March! The photo will be featured throughout the month on 500px social channels and on www.500px.com.
The winning photo of Nguyễn Vân, a Vietnamese model and actress, was taken in November during a photo shoot in Saigon at the Bà Thiên Hậu Pagoda, an 18th-century buddhist temple honouring a sea goddess, featuring colourful, ornate Chinese architecture.
I look forward to building on this experience, sharing my photographic journey with you, and seeking feedback to improve along the way.

I saw the fallen tree branch as a skeletal arrow making sure that I knew where to look. In truth, I was trying to look everywhere as it was a beautiful spot to be. So I appreciated this subtle direction as to where I should focus.

Knowing about 3 northbound trains this morning, we made the out of the way trip to Mystic to shoot the last 2 northbound trains. 181 and 659 would meet 180 at Sewall, lending alot of scanner traffic to keep us updated on this traffic. Here the MMX train 181 passes thru Mystic with 4200 feet of traffic bound for Chicago. The neat water tower here dates back to the MILW days, and might of been used for steam engines.
