Little heart warmers

 On my evening walk...

 a baby duck paddling quickly after it's mother

this little rabbit thinks it's hiding from me...

 

******

...to find the air and the water exhilarating;
to be refreshed by a morning walk
or an evening saunter;
to be thrilled by the stars at night;
to be elated over a bird's nest
or a wildflower in spring
- these are some of the rewards of the simple life.

In the moment

 

We depend on nature not only for our physical survival.

 

We also need nature to show us the way home,

 

 the way out of the prison of our own minds.

 

We got lost in doing, thinking, remembering, anticipating -

 

lost in a maze of complexity and a world of problems...

 

We have forgotten how to be -

 

 to be still, to be ourselves, to be where life is:

 

here and now.

I love taking nature photos. When I am photographing, I forget about everything else. That's why I am fortunate to get good pics even though I use an inexpensive camera. By giving it my full attention, something magical happens...
