    … every where we look, new life is emerging , especially in Spring … flowers, birds, insects, animals, humans and more. It is the story of life in all stages and we are observers and participants in all of it. Life spanning the millennia and it is good.

    Above is an image of an Iris as it slowly unravels on its way to becoming a beautiful flower and below a Black Oyster Catcher plies the shoreline at Pigeon Point Light House looking for food. Pigeon Point has long been a favorite place to go and shoot the coast below Half Moon Bay.

    Hoping to get back down to the lake before the weekend … Lake Pleasant is up another three plus feet from the last trip down there and we should be able to get up into the trees at the north end of Castle Hot Springs Bay … we found the nesting area for a number of Black Crowned Herons last time, but we were a little limited as mostly we were in less than 18 inches of water. The trees are filled with life and we have had spectacular shooting there in previous years. By July the water level will be down about 40 feet so best to get it now whilst we can.

    Time to wrap another beautiful day and get some rest before resuming life’s adventures. We are here! Keep breathing, smile and enjoy the gift of life while you have it.

    Cheers,

    Ted

    I am the dawn, the whisper of winds, the perfume
    of morning.

    The passing night fondled me, hovering close to me,
    softly, silently.

    The breaking day builds the spirit temple of my joy.
    I abandon myself!

    It seems to me that never before have I walked with
    the spirit as now, nor overcome space, time, and the
    elements as I overcome them now.

    I see all as one, and nothing repels me, as this new
    day climbs noiselessly out of the alley of the night.

    Peace lies over the world and over the world of my soul.

    We Have Been Thoroughly Trained!
    By Amaya Gayle Gregory

    Throughout the years, we have been trained. Part of the training is to see others as trained, but not ourselves. Even though we are the others that others are trained to see as trained, we tend to miss that little nuance. The training says we must know what’s right and speak out when we see something that runs contrary to our understanding of rightness. We don’t stop to realize that what we see as right isn’t exactly right or it would be the right version that everyone in their right mind knew as right. There are billions of versions of right but ours is the only real right one. Seems fishy, doesn’t it? We spend our days, our lives, catching others — the wrong ones — doing and saying things in support of their versions of right and our training has us jumping on the critical bandwagon lest we be painted in support of the wrong right. What in this crazy world moves us with such amazing force to crave rightness, to need to be seen as right? Read more→
