I always like to jump in and be a part of things, but sometimes it’s hard when I feel things are in a turmoil around me or within myself. And that’s what I adore about photography. No matter what’s going on, I can stop and have that moment of stillness and peace by appreciating Mother Nature even when it’s not a serene scene that I’m looking at. I don’t have to try and be a part of things or say or do the “right” thing. I just AM.
Stillness

It snowed here today for the first time this unreal winter of non-stop rain – and I came home to this – beautiful!
January 16, 2016 at 9:37 am
How wonderful for you! And thank you about the image. 🙂

I seem to love all your images and wish I had the wall space to purchase all. The one called “Conections” that I bought from you turned out just beautifully!!
January 16, 2016 at 11:52 am
Oh yay!! I’m so glad to hear it turned out as you had hoped. 🙂 I finally put one of my photos up in the guest bath! haha Thank you Carol. So nice of you to say. 🙂

I wish it would snow up here!! Beautiful stillness!! I have slowed down a bit with blogging etc since before Christmas so have been having a hard time catching up. Hope all is well!
January 16, 2016 at 12:07 pm
I wondered if you were still around! Glad you had a nice holiday break..well at least I hope you did! Indeed it’s hard catching up. I took a mini break as well and it felt good. Looking forward to seeing you around the blogosphere!

Thank you Sarah. I’m loving winter with these snowy images!
January 16, 2016 at 12:54 pm
Still no snow here 😦 I think in future years I’m going to have to travel for winter snow too! I can feel real emotions in the processing from your Yosemite photos 🙂
January 16, 2016 at 1:05 pm
Excellent! Keep “aming”!

Thank you Tom. I’m really loving creating more artful images. SO fun!!!

A gorgeous image to highlight such an important thought.

Thank you Charlie. I wish I had more images from Yosemite. I wasn’t there long enough.
January 16, 2016 at 4:09 pm
True words, Laura and perfect to accompany your gorgeous image. I’ve never been to Yosemite in the winter -incredible.

I’m glad they rang true Jane. I’m wondering how many of us feel this way. After seeing Yosemite in the winter, I can honestly say that it’s one of the most stunning things I’ve ever seen! We took Amtrak from Martinez to Merced and then a bus right to the valley floor. Much better than battling the snow driving. At least for us.

Beautiful photo, Laura. Like a fairytale 🙂 Agree with you there – with photography we can lose ourselves in the moment and forget about our troubles for a moment. There’s always more to life 🙂
January 17, 2016 at 8:23 am
Ahhh…a fairytale…I love that Mabel, thank you! I’m liking these descriptions for my snowy images lately!
