..as a child, life seemed valuable and worth striving for, the future promised meaning.
Nostalgia for the past now, is it an attempt to explain to yourself what was valuable? This is the satisfaction of the need for the Meaning of Existence ..just thinking out loud..

I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no satisfaction
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no
When I'm drivin' in my car
And a man comes on the radio
He's tellin' me more and more
About some useless information
Supposed to fire my imagination
I can't get no
Oh no no no
Hey hey hey
That's what I say
I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no satisfaction
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no
When I'm watchin' my TV
And a man comes on and tells me
How white my shirts can be
But he can't be a man 'cause he doesn't smoke
The same cigarettes as me
When I'm ridin' round the world
And I'm doin' this and I'm signin' that
And I'm tryin' to make some girl
Who tells me baby better come back maybe next week
'Cause you see I'm on a losing streak
I can't get no
Oh no no no
Hey hey hey
That's what I say

Or - an accidental discovery.
There is a certain satisfaction in discovering through experience the underlying reality of something we take for granted. I mean, we all know what a mile is right - 1760 yards. Well, actually no, it wasn’t that at all, that calculation must have come later, the mile stood alone prior to that.
On my long walks with my guide dog, and later with just my white stick, to pass the time I used to count my paces - sad I know, but I can’t see the scenery, so it kept me awake. I used to count 100 paces on just one foot, on each finger and thumb, and when I had done all digits - 1000 paces, I would transfer a coin to another pocket. As time went on, on certain walks , if there was a marker nearby like a large tree, a road or whatever. - something I could pick up, I would mark the 1000 paces or sometimes 500. One day I went in the car with my wife to see how far a particular walk was and as we drove I asked the distance at the markers I had accumulated, and to my surprise, they coincided almost exactly with 1 mile, or half mile intervals! The fact is - and you can verify this, 1000 strides on one foot is one mile, it is very accurate, to within 20 or 30 paces for me. I am of average height and stride. One hand half a mile, two hands a full mile.
This must be how the distance of one mile came into being, people in times of yore, needed to know how long a journey would take and therefore a standard was set by which anyone could gauge their progress. All you needed was 10 fingers and some stones in a pocket.
As a small boy I can remember seeing very old stone roadside markers - milestones, ’40 miles to London’ or 50 miles to London’ or which ever town, they must be all gone now. Somebody - with a pocket full of stones - must have paced those markers, 100 paces x 10 fingers x 10 stones = 10 miles. He would then leave some sort of marker by the wayside, and later along comes the horse and cart with the large stone markers and drops them off at each marked point.
The measurement of a yard has nothing to do with a mile. The name tells us that, it was obviously a measurement for small pieces of land and fields a *yard*. One day somebody said I wonder how many yardsticks make one of those mile things? They had someone - probably several people walk the mile, then lay down a yard stick at the starting point and discovered you had to flip it 1759 times to reach the mile.
So a mile is not a measurement of yards and feet, it is a measurement of hands and feet, and that photograph above, of all the cow parsley lining the road was taken precisely 3500 paces (on one foot) from my front door, or exactly, three and a half miles……

Something about Pelican Beach keeps drawing me back. Possibly because it’s there.
I spent a few quietly enjoyable hours wandering its mostly empty stretches today. The only other souls were the occasional fisherman and surfer — plus a few who appeared perfectly normal ;)
With temperatures in the low 30s, the sand away from the water was impressively hot. My routine settled quickly: photographs near the shoreline, a brief dash up to the dunes for some shots of driftwood and dunes, then a sprint back down for a cooling swim. Walk a bit further down the beach. Repeat. The water was perfect for swimming, almost medicinal.
They say landscape photos should include foreground interest. I remain unconvinced that sand, sea, and sky need much help :)
Thanks for the visit, and for any comments — always appreciated!
A creation born from a real photograph, crafted with the aid of AI and the 'Paper Fold Art' technique, among a few others, either made by myself or someone else. It is a laborious piece that demands time and attention, requiring a series of commands and corrections before reaching satisfaction. A stunning woman, marked by a significant surgery, is now completely healthy.
After her recovery, we got married, and her presence is like a treasured gem to me.

At last I managed to get shots of the young swallows being fed. Previous attempts were curtailed by dull weather, fence posts and a car tooting behind me as I was blocking the road
The New Year is close now & I'm excited to see what it will bring. 2024 was an interesting one:trips to Fiji, a south Pacific cruise, some outback camping, welcomed a new grandson, had a minor TIA , rowed in excess of 1,500kms on indoor rower, bootcamp workouts every second day, (probably why
I tore my rotator cuff), started karate (65 isn't too old to start hey?), numerous trips to the coast's beaches & even had a haircut ;)
Anyway here's my attempted analogy between a coastal walk and the New Year, (it's a bit of a stretch, apologies in advance ;) .......
Wandering along this rockshelf feels a lot like journeying through 2024. There’ve been slippery, mossy patches where footing wasn’t always steady—those tricky moments that kept us on our toes (and sometimes on our butts). There’ve been sharp, rocky bits, demanding resilience, and a good pair of shoes. But there’ve also been stretches of soft, golden sand, moments of ease and calm that remind you life isn’t all rough edges. And that sense of satisfaction of moving on and making ground. The rocks & vegetation are so many shapes, colours, and textures, much like the unexpected turns and delights of the past year.
Now, as I near the headland, anticipation builds. What’s waiting just around that corner? A hidden cove? A wild, windswept beach? An "influencer" taking selfies (they do seem to be everywhere), a mermaid or pirate ship? Maybe another rockshelf to navigate. That’s the thrill of it—like stepping into 2025, you don’t know exactly what’s ahead, but you can’t wait to find out. Bring it on!
Happy New Year everyone !
Many thanks for every fave and comment, I appreciate them all!
Discovering this wonderful flower in alpine grasslands over 2000 metres a.s.l. is always a satisfaction. If the background is the impressive Sas del Valfreida (3002 m asl) the atmosphere is really magic.

My dog very satisfied after drinking virgin water of a little hill we climbed at July on our holidays. It was a hot day so we decided to climb the hill to get a bit of that delicious and refreshing water. It was very tasty!

When I'm watchin' my TV
And a man comes on to tell me
How white my shirts should be
But he can't be a man 'cause he doesn't smoke
The same cigarettes as me
I can't get no -

A waterbird and a member of the rail and Crake family, this is a large bird around 40-45 cms long and weighing half a kilo or more. They are quite large compared to the other waterbirds here, but they are so impossible to sight in the green fields where they reside. They are easily identified by the frontal red shield and calls.
The birds stick to the foot long grass in the countryside and hence very hard to spot - any sighting in our region is considered rare. I had sighted this bird many times, but just could manage a distant poor shot.
But last weekend, on an open riverside road surrounded by grass and fields, several males were calling out and flying from one side of the road to the other. I was lucky to be able to get some shots of the bird much to my satisfaction. This one is a male, the female is more brownish in color.
Thanks in advance for your views and feedback. Much appreciated.
