My online journal sharing interests in photography, nature, coffee life, journaling, fountain pens, bicycling, spirituality and asking deep questions.
If there is meaning in the past and in the imagined future, it is captured in the moment. When you have all the time in the world, you can spend it, not on going somewhere, but on being where you are. So I stretch out, close my eyes, and listen to the rain.

Here’s a little bit about the trip to Seattle. First off, the weather was wonderful, highs reached about 70 degrees and lows at night down to 55 degrees. No rain the whole time we were there. I ate too much.
On the road again as I start a 4-day trip, arriving back home on Sunday evening. Wanted to post an image from a couple of hours spent in Inniswood Gardens last week. Backlit subjects are not easy for me but I will not get any better at it unless I keep shooting.
“While there is perhaps a province in which the photograph can tell us nothing more than what we see with our own eyes, there is another in which it proves to us how little our eyes permit us to see.” Dorothea Lange
Photography has given me is the gift of seeing more of the world around me. These ferns were against the wall of a stucco building next to a pathway leading to the swimming pool and immediately caught my attention. I feel photography has allowed me to see more of the world rather than just walking past it.
