Shadows and silhouettes. Looking through the window of a derelict warehouse in West Yorkshire on a sunny day.
The light showing through the space where the roof once was has created an abstract feel to the dilapidated structure behind the window.

I was born in Poland in the early 80's. The times of the worst political system in the world, the times when the only thing you could buy at store was vinegar, when you had to stand in lines for several days and nights to buy a piece of furniture and if you wanted to buy a toilet paper you had to bring a string with you. But I don't remember all that. All I remember that those were the happiest days of my life because I was with my brother and parents. It sometimes is not so obvious with the world filled with toys, noise, media that what my kids need the most is me. And spending time with them is the best thing I can do for them.

Life is so busy... it seems to go by in a quick blur! Sometimes you just have to "stop and smell the... flowers."
Sometimes you just have to stop and appreciate the small things in life!
On a vacation last year, somewhere on the road between North Carolina and Tennessee these flowers were everywhere and I just had to get some pictures of them.
Out in the country, she walks with her horses through fields that don’t hurry. No clock, no crowd — just the smell of hay, the sound of hooves, and a life made of simple, honest days
This is another view of the Bernini’s spiral staircase, looking up at the residential apartment attached to the Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome. The “hidden” staircase can only be viewed through a guided tour conducted by the Basilica’s personnel.

A simple jetty. Stand here on a calm morning or still evening and wonder, "Is there a more calming place in all the world?"

If you have never tried it - Japanese Sake (rice wine) is a wonderful accompaniment to a Japanese meal. It is a clear rice wine that is served warm in these tiny, delicate porcelain cups. It is decanted into the small bottle first, then warmed to room temperature. The tiny cups ensure that the sake does not cool down before you drink it. It can be quite deceptive, as warm alcohol goes to your head remarkably quickly!
I've had this small sake set since I was a student - signs of a mis-spent youth perhaps ;o)
