What I Strive For In Photography (post 1 ~ comment 1)
View allAll Photos Tagged strive
..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..

BEFORE YOU VOTE MY PICTURE,
READ MY PROFILE PLEASE
THANK YOU
Love... Thy will be done
I can no longer hide,
I can no longer run
No longer can I resist Your guiding light that gives me the power to keep up the fight
Oh Lord, Love...
Thy will be done
Since I have found U, my life has just begun
And I see all of Your creations as one perfect complex
No one less beautiful or more special than the next
We are all blessed and so wise to accept
Thy will, Love, be done
Love... Thy will be mine
And make me strive for the glorious and divine
I could not be more, more satisfied (Satisfied)
Even when there's no peace outside my window, there's peace inside
And that why I no longer run
(I no longer run)
Love... Thy will be done
Love... Thy will be done
I can no longer hide,
I can no longer run
Oh Love... Thy will be done
Thy will, Love, be done
Oh, no longer can I resist (No)
The guiding light (Guiding light)
The light that gives me power to keep up the fight
I couldn't be more satisfied (No)
Even when there's no peace outside my window, there is peace inside and that's why I can no longer run
Love, thy will be done
Love, thy will be done
Love, thy will be done
Oh!
Love... Thy will be done
I can no longer hide,
I can no longer run
Oh Love... Thy will be done
Thy will, Love, be done
Oh Love... Thy will be done
I can no longer hide,
I can no longer run
Oh Love... Thy will be done (Sing it)
Thy will, Love, be done
(Glory, glory, glory)
Thy will, Love, be done
(Glory) Thy will,
Love, be done
The sixth month of the year, so six promises ....
I promise to try to listen and love compassionately
Take time to savour the delights of nature
To laugh more and see the lighter nature in humanity
To take risks creatively
Take time to count my blessings and give thanks
Strive to create Heaven on Earth in my garden and anywhere else if at all possible

Happy New Year Clicks........

I enjoy all the individual perspectives on how photographers
view and shoot their images, and how, over time we all seem to adapt styles and make them our own.
I also, enjoy reading the ABOUT section on people's galleries, describing their love and interest of photography, all written uniquely in their 'own' chosen words. It's very interesting to see what makes the different artists 'click'.

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Our ancestors strived with the
momentous job of survival
Still, they really wanted to be artists.
So, in the free time they didn’t actually have,
they would hunt for any natural canvas and
gather whatever tool they could find.
Scratch and scrawl to their heart's delight.
We know a little bit about who we were
when the cost of living was much less
and the cost of death was much higher.
Because we see the drawings
in the oldest museums
and the need for communication
still existing in ourselves.
You think that art is dormant
Hibernating for a season
or a several centuries.
But it lives inside of you.
The need to express oneself
is exactly what makes us human.
Only, we no longer own our own caves.
The real estate has just become too expensive
Profit over people is a reality
And so we take over public spaces
as if they were still ours
telling the world
in broken up fragments
about how we really miss our former selves.

I know that I am just one day old but I promise myself to be tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and strong.

“Everyone strives after the law,” says the man, “so how is that in these many years no one except me has requested entry?” The gatekeeper sees that the man is already dying and, in order to reach his diminishing sense of hearing, he shouts at him, “Here no one else can gain entry, since this entrance was assigned only to you. I’m going now to close it.”

Yeah, I know - a cliché : ))
I think that's why I've never really photographed a dandelion before - but then I saw this single seed head striving towards freedom and couldn't resist :)
Happy Sunday ... and stay safe !

"... Freiheit kommt von innen ..."
~ Frank Lloyd Wright
Ja, ich weiß - ein Klischee : )))
Das scheint auch der Grund zu sein, warum ich noch nie wirklich Löwenzahn fotografiert habe - aber dann sah ich dieses einzelne Schirmchen, das nach Freiheit strebte, und konnte nicht widerstehen :)
Einen schönen Sonntag euch allen ... und passt auf euch auf !

Illustration to poetry of Natalya Hrebionka devoted to Japan.
Shadow of humility
A path in the dark.
I don't know where they lead
Reflections.
Striving for heights,
I lose earthly comfort.
Shadow of humility.
Fates are fickle,
Fate is mysterious.
The world inhaled deeply
A faded leaf.

Тень смирения
Тропа в темноте.
Не знаю, куда ведут
Размышления.
Стремясь к высоте,
Теряю земной уют.
Тень смирения.
Переменчивы судьбы,
Загадочен рок.
Мир вдохнул полной грудью
Поблекший листок.

If you're going to do something, strive to do it better than anyone else. Do it all the way. If you're going to half-ass it, why bother?

The most accomplished street artist in Launceston is Kreamart. His identity is unknown (a local version of Banksy), but looking at this work he could well be a professional signwriter.
The message is one we should all take to heart whatever we do.
72cm of snow fell on the Coquihalla Highway during this storm. I am happy to say that we are now safely back home in Vancouver.
South of Kamloops, Highway 5 is known as the Coquihalla Highway (colloquially "the Coq"; pronounced "coke"), 186 km (116 mi) of freeway, varying between four and six lanes with a posted speed limit of 120 km/h (75 mph). [...]. It is so-named because near Hope, it generally follows the Coquihalla River, for about 60 km (37 mi), and uses the Coquihalla Pass.
Signs along the Coquihalla Highway frequently warn drivers to be aware of sudden changes in weather. The highway is particularly dangerous during winter seasons, with extreme snowfall that can exceed more than 10 centimetres (4 in) per hour.[3] While road maintenance strives to keep the roads as clear as possible, it is not unheard of for the highway to shut down, sometimes with travellers forced to stay overnight in their cars.
[...]. Global News listed the stretch between Merritt and Hope as one of the deadliest highways in BC. Wikipedia

Prima o poi bisogna trovare il coraggio di uscire fuori dal porto, per non dimenticare quanto più emozionante è il solcare il mare.
Buona giornata

This image is dedicated to my little brother. Thank you Andy (Caleb4ever) for your keen eye, your ability to see the finished image before it is even started. Your critique, technical skills and artistic support have kept me inspired to keep striving. Your processing on this image has taken it to a new level....bravo Kid...:-)))
