A very thick fog to start the day. This umbrella user is perhaps waiting to see the view if the mists should part. (He will leave disappointed).

Oh yeah, season is ON for northernlights! This is from last night. 5 hours of wait was worth it.

Today is the start of a new school year and will mark the tenth year of me getting into the teaching profession. At this point in my life I can't imagine doing anything else.

 

This year will also mark a new chapter in my personal life as well. It has been a summer of change - some of it that was very jarring and painful.

 

I am happy to report that I seem to have braved the worst of the storm and I'm coming out the other side intact and ready to travel this new road. Happy Fall!

Non sempre l'orizzonte e' qualcosa di finito....Si puo' sempre guardare al di la', un po come la siepe leopardiana, oltre chje c'e'? Salpare dallo scoglio e mollare gli ormeggi, in fondo e' solo la convinzione da mettere in gioco!

 

Not

always the horizon seems determined.... you can always look

beyond, rather like the Giacomo Leopardi's hedge, do we go beyondi the hedge to see? To weigh anchor and pick up the moorings, at the bottom we must play on the convinction!

The Grumman TBF Avenger (designated TBM for aircraft manufactured by General Motors) is an American torpedo bomber developed initially for the United States Navy and Marine Corps, and eventually used by several air and naval aviation services around the world.

 

The Avenger entered U.S. service in 1942, and first saw action during the Battle of Midway. Despite the loss of five of the six Avengers on its combat debut, it survived in service to become one of the outstanding torpedo bombers of World War II. Greatly modified after the war, it remained in use until the 1960s

There were three crew members: pilot, turret gunner and radioman/bombardier/ventral gunner.

from poet david whyte:

"start close in,

don't take the second step

or the third,

start with the first

thing

close in,

the step

you don't want to take."

The buildings were both started in 1885 with the Jail opening in 1886 and the Court House in 1887. Originally, the Council had decided to open the buildings on the date of Queen Victoria’s Golden Jubilee which was June 22, 1887. It was suggested to allow $500.00 to pay for the festivities. However, the money was returned to a general fund as it was never spent because the buildings were opened instead on May 9, at the beginning of the spring assizes

George F. Durand was born in 1850 to Scottish parents. His artistic ability encouraged his father to enroll him in Peel’s Art School, London, where after two years of study, specializing in marble sculpturing, Durand began his studies in architecture in apprenticeship with London architect, William Robinson. After completing his apprenticeship, Durand moved to the United States, where he helped with the designs of the New York State Capital Building for a short time.

Last week I headed down towards the Harbour at Rose Bay, I was taken aback by this sensational Sunset over the city.

 

As I got closer, I soon discovered that I was not the only one to be mesmorised by this sky - about 20 local residents silently stood by on the usually deserted beach to witness this magical sight alongside me.

I think you know this toy.

All belong to you.

 

Wish you have a colourful weekend soon@

Starting a new set today: autumn leaves that fell. What can a person do with leaves on the ground? Well, maybe more than what you'll see from me over the next few days, but you may find my offerings interesting.

 

As for this image, I didn't touch a thing. Somehow when I try to arrange a still life in nature, it never works: I can't duplicate the random chaos or patterns-within-chaos that occur naturally. My concoctions are always a little too perfect and artful, and I never like the results. I learned a long time ago to just go with what I find, the only changes being to occasionally remove a twig or use my hat to bend grasses away and out of the frame while I make the shot.

 

A friend sent me this quote recently and I think it applies not only to the coming series but to all creative endeavours...

 

Instructions for living a life:

Pay attention.

Be astonished.

Tell about it.

Views of the Stair Hole, Lulworth Crumple and Lulworth Cove. Taken from high up on the western cliff edge, swirling seas and a dramatic sunrise - well worth the early start and climb up the cliff in the dark

The warmer temps are shrinking the ice and snow. Happy.
