On my visit to Blakeney in Norfolk during late December I walked up from the quayside up the shore line shadowing the North Norfolk Coastal Path and about a mile up the river I saw this beautiful sailing boat all on its own looking so serene and calm. It was one of my favourite memories from that day and really encapsulates my love of water and boats in one perfect image.
I don't know if this is actually called Shark Rock, but it should be! The sea was very stormy in the severe gales too this day and the waves were almost smashing over it on occasion.
heavy use of photoshop... like you didn't suspect.

This path is still used today by the tower-persons who record the weather and report smoke at the Mt Frankland fire lookout.

Whether you turn to the right or to the left; your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, "This is the way; walk in it". - Isaiah 30:21
Glacier National Park is probably my favorite place in the World. My wife and I initially met and got together over 10 years ago while planning a group trip to Glacier. We've traveled back multiple times since, and each year we don't get there we wish we could.
This fall at the end of September, we took a long weekend and brought our 2 children (ages 2 and 1) to Glacier for the first time. It was nothing like our prior trips to Glacier. No camping. No hiking to speak of. No 15+ mile days. No leaving camp at 6 am and returning after dark. No late-night campfires. We spent a large chunk of each day at Lake McDonald in Apgar, throwing rocks in the lake, dropping rocks into the lake off the boat dock, eating ice cream, buying stuffed animals at the gift shop, or just wandering the shore. We had as much fun exploring the grounds of the cabin we rented in Coram as we did in the park. And though undoubtedly in a different way than we feel connected to it, we saw our kids begin to connect with Glacier.
On this particular morning, we arose as early as we could and drove the hour up to Logan Pass. It was basically empty. We took a half-mile or so walk up the boardwalk toward Hidden Lake. We had no intention of getting there, no destination. My son relished the challenge of clambering up each step - still needing a spotter to ensure he didn't topple backward once he'd ascended. My daughter scanned for mountain goats and bighorn sheep. A crack in the boardwalk or a fallen leaf often derailed our progress for a few minutes. It may be the best memory I'll ever have of Glacier.
I hope the path of our lives will take us back here many times. Whether it does or not, this will always be a moment along that path that I cherish greatly.

Note - despite how it looks, no saturation has been added to this shot, just brightness and contrast changes. You have to love those new-growth Spring colours!
I'm so lucky to live near the countryside.
I cycle for five minutes and I'm in the city, I cycle for five minutes in the opposite direction, and I'm in the nature.

While organising my Lightroom catalog I came across this image I had taken near Friars Crag. Some of you will recognise the location. Unfortunately the path doesn’t look this way anymore as they are building a new one.
Made me think about how things are always changing.

I took this photo on a late afternoon stroll. The location was a park adjacent to the famous Crescent Hotel in Eureka Springs, AR. That town is still one of my favorite places for a day trip, a walk, and taking some photos.
