Pentax K1000 - Ektar 100 - The Great Smoky Mountains National Park - Gregory Bald ..."The Cherokee name for Gregory Bald was "Tsistu'yi," or "Rabbit Place." According to tribal lore, the chief of all rabbits— known simply as the Great Rabbit— lived at the summit.

“Peace is a time of open mind,
A voice so sweet, yet still.
Within this quiet moment found,
No noise can break its will.”
By Emily Dickinson, American poet ,1830 to 1886. Emily published only 10 of her almost 1,800 poems, and 'A Peace of Mind' wasn't one of them.
"Dickinson’s perspective on peace is introspective, emphasizing that the mind itself can be a source of tranquility, even when the world around us may be chaotic. The poem suggests that peace is something that can be cultivated internally through mindfulness and self-awareness."

Pentax K1000 - Ektar 100 - Big South Fork, Kentucky - Blue Heron Loop Trail - We got this amazing campsite. It is a nice little beach on the river....right next to Devil's Jump. It's a very relaxing spot. We built a big fire on the beach that night. I'll have to go back again when it's warm enough to swim.

"I want love, I want us, I want you, I want me, I want peace..."
O.A.R.
I was trying to get a composition of daffodils by the water in Minoru Park last week. But the branches on the water were bugging me a lot as distractions in the background.
I felt a little frustrated after trying so many different positions and viewpoints and I did not get any interesting and safisfactory composition still.
Finally I chose to shoot the branches on water instead and I got back to my calmness.
Wish everyone a great Friday and wonderful weekend!
