Dreams

By Langston Hughes

 

Hold fast to dreams

For if dreams die

Life is a broken-winged bird

That cannot fly.

 

Hold fast to dreams

For when dreams go

Life is a barren field

Frozen with snow.

A peaceful but chilly moment on our pond next door. Very rare to have lots of snow, but no wind. Winter was a little slower in arriving here this year, but it is certainly making its presence felt now and the wind is back with a vengeance today!

A pretty and peaceful spot at The Largo Central Park Nature Preserve in Largo, Florida.

On a rainy day ...

... at a small mountain lake in the Swiss alps

 

A little story about the picture: We were so looking forward to this weekend, where we wanted to visit this mountain lake all together. The weather forecast did not bode well, but we were still hopeful that there would be some nice moments. Unfortunately, the weather was even worse than the forecasts said, because on the first day it rained almost constantly and it was bitterly cold. Arriving at the accommodation, we still wanted to hike that day to the lake high in the mountains. Everything was gray and wet and we could therefore walk very badly. When we arrived at the little lake, it was still raining and the fog was low over the mountains. We only saw the water from the lake. We could not even recognize the trees all around. We were all alone up there. (Normally there are some visitors on this amazing place.) That was the beautiful side of this weather, because it was so quiet and peaceful in this wild nature. We arranged ourselves with the weather and tried to capture this mood with our cameras. Somehow it should work, after all, they should be weatherproof, according to the manufacturer. Well, we could test that extensively on this day. It was not very long and our cameras were completely wet with all the accessories. We started to freeze because everything was wet on us too. We then tried desperately to avert the damage. At some point we gave up and tried to focus only on photographing, which we partially succeeded, as the rain for a few minutes became less or stopped altogether. Out of this background, this photo was taken here. We spent a whole afternoon in the rain and in the evening anyway or just because of that, we were all happy together with a good and warm dinner in the accommodation.

 

Addition: Both of my cameras were totally wet including bags and still worked after that day. So both survived the hard test in the swiss alps, because the next day it rained on and I continued to shoot with both cameras !!!

By the way, I've never seen more intense colors in the fall than on those rainy & unforgettable days in the swiss mountain world. I learned something new, that you can also enjoy the rainy weather as well.

The serenity of the day, the stillness of the canal.The morning sunshine illuminating the moored boats under the canopy of the trees and casting it's shimmering reflections.

I would love to play with this a bit more...see where it needs to be cropped. Anyway, I appreciate your visits and comments. I'll be back to FLICKR in a week or so....thank you!

 

Thank you for all your visits and kind words of support. While I am working on my project, I have so little time to spend on Flickr, but you are never far from thought. :)

This is my revised version of a previous photo I did titled Madison SP27b.

Despite the slight breeze on the water it was a calm and peaceful start to the day. Taken from the left side of the Lighthouse looking North up Loch Lochy.

Sunday chill out, catching a few late afternoon rays in the pool.

Calm, quiet, tranquil scene captured a few weeks back and Blea Tarn - loved it up there... shared a few pics from there already, however, these ones are edited on my laptop (rather than mobile phone)

 

It was a photo session where the clouds and the sun kept changing the colours in the landscape - loved it!

Thank you for visiting - ❤ with gratitude! Fave if you like it, add comments below, get beautiful HDR prints at qualityHDR.com.

 

Earlier this year we went hiking along the coast of Santa Cruz, California. I captured this scene shortly after sunset.

 

I processed a balanced HDR photo from a long exposure in RAW format.
