A small creek (Bull Creek that feeds the Portage River southeast of Bowling Green, OH) runs through the countryside next to a farmers field as the clouds and sun put on a light show.

....a place to wander with the camera, a place to sit and ponder, just me and some wildlife on this glorious wintry day.
For ANSH Round 89
Shot early frosty morning with OM-D and the Voigtländer Nokton 25mm f/0.95. Temperature -7 degrees Celcius.
The heating and Rach's snoring woke me up at 3:30am on Friday morning, and as I traipsed to the toilets from our cabin, I looked up at the clear night sky, full of stars, and that was it. I was awake and ready to attempt some star trails. That wasn't overly successful, but I got to witness this sunrise which made the whole 'waking up early' thing entirely worth it :)
Yesterday I joined in a photowalk in downtown Houston with the Houston Photowalks group and had a marvelous time. We started out in Tranquility Park where there are usually fountains however on this day they were not flowing but this created the opportunity to take some really nice reflection photos. I love how all the sediment in the pool creates such a lovely texture.

The tranquil gardens of Villa Astrida, the former holiday villa of King Baudouin and Queen Fabiola.
This villa was a refuge for the royal couple and the place where King Baudouin died suddenly on July 31, 1993. The location has become a place of pilgrimage for many Belgians.
The gardens and the villa reflect the blend of Belgian elegance and Andalusian charm that the couple loved.
Like water which can clearly mirror the sky and the trees only so long as its surface is undisturbed, the mind can only reflect the true image of the Self when it is tranquil and wholly relaxed. - Indra Devi

More from the Galgorm Hotel Garden Sculpture Exhibition. A pleasant wander with the camera!
Cocteau Twins - Tranquil Eye
We were 10 minutes late and that did not give us time to compose our shots! The moment we arrived at the place, Filan, Etharanz, Noynoy and I took each others spots and do our thing! =)
a desirable state of being ~ you are consciously aware of the moment ~ you sense your mind, body and spirit ~ relax, recharge and revitalize ~ serenity ~ feel reconnected with the earth, higher power, your self ~ feelings of joy, harmony, peace and love ~ a simple concept ~ you recognize tranquility the moment it arrives.
We had a tranquil day bopping around the Rocky Mountain Arsenal Wildlife Refuge. Nikon D750 | ISO 50 | 24-70mm lens at 60mm | f / 22 | 1/6 second with a Singh-Ray polarizer and a 2 Stop ND Grad.
Tranquility!

A tranquil morning at El Charco de San Gines in Arrecife. Probably about the only time I have been there in the early morning.
Believe it or not, this is part of an industrial park near where I work. I pass here every morning and have been wanting to get this shot for quite a while, but I never seem have enough time before work. Mornings is when it looks its best. The photo is mapped and you can see how it fits between the buildings on the satellite view.
A little rain to green up the grass would be nice. If we get it, I plan to take the shot again.

Bamboo Pinhole - “Le Bambole" Camera. Fujicolor Superia 100. Exposure: f/256 and 5 minutes. Image desaturated in post-processing.
We usually find that in a very quiet environment where nothing much happens, we are easily distracted and readily follow the direction of desires that arise within us.
We regard serenity in our lives as being dependent on the environment. We seem to think that tranquility comes to us when we place ourselves in a tranquil situation, but actually the reverse is true. It is the state of the heart and mind which determines how tranquil our surroundings can be. It is said that, "A calm heart makes a shaky hut stable".
Inner tranquility does not come easily and a person whose heart is filled with craving may stand by a deep, still pool and still feel his heart churning with desires. He may be in a lonely forest but unable to sense the stillness; while those who have relinquished all desires from their hearts may feel refreshed under the burning summer sun. They may live in the middle of the busiest city and not hear its noise.
These kind of thought leave me with other question in mind... What thoughts tend to block our awareness of serenity and tranquility?
