NO MULTI INVITATIONS in your commenTs, Tks.
you are here in the quiet places, calling out my name
longing just to bring me back home
you are here in the chaos, always running after me
all this time i've never walked alone
♬ you are with me in the quiet ♬
when I cannot hear your words
still they come in gentle whispers

How to look for an answer or leave it alone?
To find a quiet place in nature
Pond, it's nice to dream with you
Tomorrow, I have to do without you today… it‘s need to go

U t o p e n a v podzimní náladě
Jak hledat odpověď, či nechat to být?
Nacházet v přírodě příjemný klid
Jezírko, je hezké u tebe snít
Zítra zas, dneska už musím se bez tebe obejít
…už je třeba jít

Found this charming, tucked-away cove dressed in the last colors of the season. The classic Falu red cabin and deep orange trees reflect perfectly in the still water, a beautiful, private spot on the lake.
The splash of red from the cabin and the orange buoys really anchor this cozy scene. It feels like the kind of place you’d retreat to when you need complete peace.
This week's theme for Mosaic Montage Monday was Quiet Places. Not a soul in sight to make any noise, just a few raindrops. HMMM!
If you were going to design a seat for watching the sun rise over the ocean, you’d struggle to do better than this one - thoughtfully produced by Mother Nature herself. This is Spoon Bay, another (yes, another) favourite stretch of coast of mine.
Thought for the day: if you could un-invent one thing, what would it be?
For me, it would be that super-tight plastic packaging some things come in - the kind that requires sharp scissors, months of strength training. That, and USB connectors. A true marvel of engineering that somehow needs to be tried, flipped, tried again, flipped again, and repeated exactly three times before one end miraculously decides it’s happy to go in.
I hope everyone had a great Christmas. Just enough time to recuperate for New Year celebrations ;)
Barely 200 metres along the path from the Female Factory we come to this quiet place. The Macquarie River in drier periods is a small flowing stream, although when in flood this whole area would be inundated. I think it fair to say the essential character of this location has hardly changed since the convicts walked this path (some perhaps in ball and chain).

The Treska River carves its way here like a quiet breath through the heart of the Matka Canyon. High above the water, the rock walls rise steep and layered, shaped by time and patience. Their shadows drift slowly across the blue-green ribbon below, as if the mountains themselves are watching while the river continues on its course. The water lies calm, almost untouched, held between steep slopes dressed in autumn tones. There is no sense of haste here, no noise — only the suggestion of movement, far beneath you. The canyon opens layer by layer, each bend revealing new depth, new silence. Beyond the Saint Nicholas Šiševski Monastery, it is worth walking on a little further. It is there that the most beautiful view of the gorge unfolds: the river sinking deeper between the rocks, the walls gradually pulling apart, and the landscape revealing its true scale. A place where you do not just look, but pause. This is a landscape that reminds you of proportions — how small we are, and how vast nature can be. And how the river, unwavering and timeless, binds everything together: rock, light, and memory.
Matka Canyon is located in North Macedonia, just west of Skopje, near the village of Gorna Matka. The Treska River winds calmly through the heart of Matka Canyon, where steep limestone walls, shifting shadows, and deep silence define the landscape.
De rivier Treska snijdt zich hier als een stille adem door het hart van de Matka canyon. Hoog boven het water rijzen de rotswanden op, ruw en gelaagd, gevormd door tijd en geduld. Hun schaduwen glijden langzaam over het blauwgroene lint beneden, alsof de bergen zelf meekijken terwijl de rivier zijn weg vervolgt. Het water ligt kalm, bijna onaangeraakt, gevangen tussen steile flanken vol herfsttinten. Hier hoor je geen haast, geen rumoer — alleen de suggestie van stroming, diep onder je. De canyon opent zich laag voor laag, elke bocht onthult nieuwe diepte, nieuwe stilte. Achter het klooster Saint Nicholas Šiševski loont het om nog even door te lopen. Juist daar ontvouwt zich het mooiste uitzicht over de kloof: de rivier die dieper wegzakt tussen de rotsen, de wanden die verder uit elkaar vallen, en het landschap dat zijn ware schaal laat zien. Een plek waar je niet alleen kijkt, maar blijft staan. Dit is een landschap dat je herinnert aan verhoudingen — hoe klein de mens is, hoe groots de natuur. En hoe de rivier, onverstoorbaar en tijdloos, alles met elkaar verbindt: rots, licht en herinnering.
A quiet place to sit and contemplate nature's beauty is under a beautifully coloured tree watching the leaves fall and see the other golden trees nearby.

Dandenong Ranges Botanic Park. HMMM
Behind Penmon Priory, Anglesey there's an old graveyard. An ancient stone Celtic cross stands proudly, surrounded by moss-covered tombstones. The cross, decked out with intricate carvings, sits on a stone pedestal amidst vibrant green ferns and tall grass. The background is a mix of trees and cloudy skies, adding to the chill, slightly spooky vibe.

The quiet places...where thoughts and hopes can sparkle and dance like the shimmer of sunlight on fresh-fallen snow...
Red shapes break the white hush, bold against frozen calm. Cold wind slips through snow-heavy pines, stirring whispers that ripple across the frozen lake. Quiet unfolds like light, clear, open, waiting.
Hidden in the heart of North Brabant lies a magical place where time seems to slow down — the Oisterwijkse Vennen.
Ein stiller Weg zwischen Wald und Weingarten –
Schatten und Licht wechseln sich ab wie Gedanken,
die nirgendwo ankommen müssen.

A quiet path between forest and vineyard –
shadows and light drift like thoughts
with no need to arrive.
Luna Sea is a coastal treasure – full of quiet beauty and small surprises.
A stretch of coast, shaped by wind and silence.
Seabirds drift past.
Seals rest on warm stone.
Nature doesn’t try to impress – it simply lets you be.
Here and there, places to sit.
To share. To stay a little longer.
It’s a place to breathe – alone or together.

This traditional Dutch watermill, located in the quiet hamlet of Uppel-Althena, is a beautiful example of 17th-century rural engineering. Once powered by the steady stream of the Althena brook, it played a key role in local agriculture by grinding grain into flour for the surrounding villages. Though no longer in active use, it remains a well-preserved symbol of cultural heritage and craftsmanship, nestled in the peaceful Dutch countryside.
