It's a dreary day in San Francisco. Though we need the rain, it's hard thing to wake up to. I'm glad it stopped long enough for me to sneak out into the garden for a photo, but I'm back inside, wrapped in a blanket, waiting for the sun to reappear as I read more stunning headlines. In my waking hours I believe we can get through this. I am heartened by the signs of new life that peek out among the ferns.
Hardy anglers braved rain showers and a biting southwesterly breeze on the pier at South Melbourne Beach this morning. No-one was catching any fish, but they were cheerfully geared up for the bleak conditions.
“The true optimist not only expects the best to happen, but goes to work to make the best happen. The true optimist not only looks upon the bright side, but trains every force that is in him to produce more and more brightness in his life….”

...A ruined Pennine farm. Built from beautifully dressed stone, and carving some sort of living from what is very wild and marginal land. No services, no road access, and usually wild weather. That's optimism.

"Optimism is not a feeling; it is an optical phenomenon. It is the act of positioning yourself so that the light has no choice but to pass through you and reveal the clarity within."

Finally finding time to pick the camera up again. Liked the light play in the green stones. Also thought the 'light' theme was cool, because Garbo is doing much, much better!
