For me, making my own magic is a mindset. Choosing hope, seeing the beauty in every day things, and choosing to focus on the stuff that makes me happy makes life magical for me.

You don’t take a photograph, you make it. - Ansel Adams
Ten things I want to do before I die
1. Travel wherever I want to go, stand on top of mountains with the wind tugging at my hair, feel the cold air sinking into my lungs, like I'm actually learning to breathe
2. Write a book. I really want this to come true more than anything else.
3. Stand in the middle of a road at midnight with cars speeding past just to have that feeling of almost-dying-but-not-going-to because it's reckless. For once.
4. Get soaked in the rain without anyone telling me not to or that I'm going to fall ill.. Have water dripping into my eyes, have my hair soaked down my back, have water cascading through my fingers
5. Play a grand piano on the beach with waves crashing in the background, birds flying in the sky, the sun setting.
6. Lie under cherry blossoms with my eyes shut feeling petals falling onto my face, and the soft scent of flowers in the air
7. Have those cinematic moments when my eyes lock with someone from my past and time seems to slow down. Heart thumping, mind racing, wind sighing, everything else dissolving into a blur except the both of us. It would be nice if music was playing at the same time :P
8. Run in a wheat field with sunshine streaming everywhere, get that feeling of being immensely tiny compared to the world
9. Climb onto my roof and just watch the sky and clouds racing past for hours, have light burning onto me. Experience that emotion of being made up of light.
10. Set up some kind of foundation to help people, in some way, any way.
338 makes the daily trek towards Kirk Yard with morning departure out of Waterloo. Here the train passes over Prairie Creek just outside of Masonville, about 40 mile east of Waterloo. Not alot of old wooden trestles left along the main in Iowa, but a few cool ones still holding up freight.
Taking the opportunity to make a skitour to Drei-Zinnen-Hütte this winter, I had some nice light at that famous mountain close to sunset. I was glad that the dolomites have got more snow this winter until now as the last years there was nearly none and I love those graceful rocky summits covered with snow.
After development in Phocus, I did some slight enhancement with Velvia Vision from Fred Miranda.
Life is what you make it!
These are some coneflowers my husband planted in our garden this year. I just love coneflowers! Hope you enjoy!

A dreary day at Myrtle Beach. I got up early that morning with the hopes of catching a sunrise. I watched a lady putting up beach umbrellas and chairs. When the weather gives you lemons, make lemonade. I captured this image from the balcony of our hotel room on the 10th floor.

miss a picked this all by herself. she was outside on tuesday and picked one, but the little things flew away as she ran in the house to show me and then said, "don't worry, i have another wish in my room." she ran upstairs and grabbed this one - i didn't even know she was saving her wishes.

It's difficult to resist the urge to take a picture of a Dandelion with a maco lens. They reveal much about the lenses characteristics.

I can’t adequately describe the thrill of seeing not one, but two, koalas just near home this week. It doesn’t get much better than that 😍 And it was just delightful to see so many people stopping their cars to look, show their kids and take photos. (The koalas were safely inside the fence line of our golf course which has unfortunately been sold, but close enough to to the road to be easily seen).
It’s a desperately sad fact that koalas in Queensland, where I live, are now listed as an endangered species. Their numbers continue to decline as a result of habitat loss due to land clearing for development and farming, climate events like bushfires and drought, and disease.
Spring is mating season for koalas and I was lucky to spot two of them in the same tree in our local area where it’s estimated there are around 40 living in a conservation zone. But even this area is now under threat of housing redevelopment which would mean the further destruction of precious habitat for the koalas, kangaroos and other wildlife. The developers and local authorities will have a fight on their hands. I am getting ready for battle.

If you want to escape, make sure you leave your shit behind. It can drag you down.
Message to boat owner: pull your boat above the tide line to stop it being swamped like this. Finns are not used to tides and the sea level changing. Normally there is hardly any tide in the Baltic Sea. But there was on this day
Photographing an ostrich pacing inside it's fence was slight compensation for failure to get a proper shot of a sandhill crane. The rain was heavy so I shot through an open car window. Sometimes you have to make do with the limited photographic opportunities fate provides....

wished to make some changes in my home so I'e decided to decorate my mantel with an old lace I found some years ago in a flea market.
We were following a pair of juveniles and had paused before we got to the slough, as there was another group already near them. Next thing we knew, Crimp Ear (what the guides call her), came flying along the bank. We heard a big splash - the juveniles had jumped into the slough and scattered.
The guides think the juveniles were her cubs from 2 years ago, and she was trying to drive them further out of the territory.
If you are wondering, we did move back when we saw her approach. She was totally ignoring us!
