never be sad for what is over,
just be glad it was once yours.
don't cry because it's over,
smile because it happened.
aged 20 something with one chance to catch this shot and the terrible light with my inexperience and my old film slr.
But the beautiful children with their depth is enough. How lovely to discover this after a very long time. They will all be adults now.
got a new film scanner and it is good...

Cienfuegos Province, Cuba - Hiking the trails of El Nicho waterfalls in south central Cuba.
The El Nicho waterfalls are a popular tourist destination located between Cienfuegos and Trinidad. You can get there on your own but I would recommend going through a tour company. Trying to get there in our rental car resulted in 4 guys getting lost for hours, a flat tire, and a hole in the gas tank. Of course looking back it was a hilarious experience and I now know how to fix a punctured gas tank using a banana, but take the prepackaged route if you want less trouble.
On this grey day I was looking for a beach picture to post, when I came across this picture of the barn door by the "house of decrepitude", as "thruthelookingglass" and I affectionately refer to the two old houses and barn in town. I had never really noticed this fabulous old latch that reminds me of the spinning arrow on a game of chance! Look at the ring worn into the wood from the movement of the latch! I love the rusty old latch and the combination of the old stone wall and fading red paint on the door. I think I like that old barn every bit as much as the houses, maybe even more!
And as Susan and I marched up to the old houses, past the posted "NO TRESPASSING, NO HUNTING" signs.... I'm reminded of a message from Mark Twain...
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. "
(or, again, as Susan and I say... trespass...it's OK as long as you are carrying a camera and wearing a smile!)
The scariest moment is always just before you start. After that, things can only get better. - Stephen King

Take a chance and play your game
Make romance until it breaks your heart
Today may shine
Today might rain
But take your chance
Don't waste your day
If you say you need more time to think
Just don't wait too long
You might regret someday
You might have a million years
But a regret might come like you pass a day
And the night come along
Sometimes you got to loose it all
then you'll find a way
But if you think time will spare you
No it won't..
Just make your risk
Don't wanna waste another day
And though you got cry and goodbyes
You'll know your way will come along..

Look up. The sky is clear, the trees a'bloomin.' Take a breather and wonder. Catch the light. Let your soul soar. Just for a bit. Take a leap and go into something you know is going to rock your world figuratively and literally. You can't flip the boat and stay afloat at the same time. So just take a chance.

And I did with this shot. I thought I saw something Pink-a-Day worthy from the streetcar when I was heading off to drop off my film so I went back to this corner after that to be rewarded with this! I had just saw the pink bits moving about in the breeze on the bicycle when I went by. I didn't know anything about the button or the orange-arrific bike bell! Whoo hoo!

Roseann Higgins, Phoenix, Arizona Inaugural Grand Canyon Half Marathon Finisher #1143 and Skeleton Club Member May 17, 2014 Can you tell it’s windy as heck?!! OMG It’s a steep hike down and not 3/4 of a mile from the South Rim but 3 miles and 2,800 ft down. So I had a choice. Hike back up through heavy winds or just head all the way to the bottom and up Bright Angel. I took Door #2. Arrived topside at 12:59 am! I ran down to see if I could catch stew dinner at Phantom Ranch at 6:30. Arrived 6:10! But they were sold out! No room for the night either. So, suck it up, girlfriend, you’re hiking another 9 miles tonight. In the dark. Uphill. A very big hill. giggle #matchmaker #takeachance #liveontheedge
