May you never know hunger
May you love with a full heart
The light burn in your eyes
May the fire be your friend
And the sea rock you gently
May the moon light your way
Till the wind sets you free
Shriekback, Cradle Song
Meeresleuchten
Aus des Meeres dunklen Tiefen
Stieg die Venus still empor
Als die Nachtigallen riefen
In dem Hain, den sie erkor.
Und zum Spiegel, voll Verlangen
Glätteten die Wogen sich
Um ihr Bild noch aufzufangen
Da sie selbst auf ewig wich.
Lächelnd gönnte sie dem feuchten
Element den letzten Blick
Davon blieb dem Meer sein Leuchten
Bis auf diesen Tag zurück
Friedrich Hebbel
A little something for Fence Friday although I don't think it is HFF for this little guy.
I have had network and internet issues which caused my recent absence. I believe those are remedied now and I will be here regularly again. I will catch up on your images although I may not comment on each one.
You'll be in the birds, in the wind, in the air i breath. In the stars.
I'll miss you forever.
(P.s please press L, it looks a lot better)
“The feelings that hurt most, the emotions that sting most, are those that are absurd - The longing for impossible things, precisely because they are impossible; nostalgia for what never was; the desire for what could have been; regret over not being someone else; dissatisfaction with the world’s existence. All these half-tones of the soul’s consciousness create in us a painful landscape, an eternal sunset of what we are.”
Fernando Pessoa

The C&O signals at Longley are now a memory. This was one of my favourite spots on the Pemberville Sub but now it's been turned into the mundane for the next generation to long for when Vader signals are inevitably replaced with better technology.

When it’s over ...
I want to say:
All my life
I was a bride married to amazement.
I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms.

I don’t want to end up simply having visited this world.

The Stage Coach Road parallels Highway 101 and San Luis Obispo Creek through the shade of Cuesta Canyon while heading up to the Cuesta Grade summit. This historic road was formerly the Old Padre Trail, dating back to the 1700s. The Old Padre Trail was a primary route connecting San Luis Obispo with the northern inland valleys. Although the Stagecoach Road may be used by motor vehicles, it is primarily used for hiking and biking.
ABOUT THIS IMAGE:
On this day, I had been longing to check out Old Stage Coach Road. It had been a long time since I had been there. I had some business to do on this morning, so I decided to take a look afterwards. It is only a short drive. Although it was a bright midday, I was very happy to get in a few good captures. I loved how this tree leaves were brightly lit at the top and in shadow down below.
Abandoned house in Luxembourg
Being in this house, I felt so much melancholy, it was clear it had been a house were very elderly people had been living, but after a very long life of happiness and family. To see it so frozen in time, unloved and silent felt strange and eerie.
In this room, a child bed was ll that was left and the photo you see on the wall was made from locks of hair to look like a flower.

I was aiming for that 50s vogue magazine image, you know the type, A woman with a silly narrow waist, pert breasts and big full skirt.
Well I managed the illusion so I am happy ;-)
So longing for the time when we can get out and about.
