The play of water and earth

I swear the view from my window amazes me anew every single day. I mean, just look at THIS! Goodness, what an amazing dance of water on the earth. I’ve never seen the clouds and mist caress the folds of the mountain like this. Just beautiful
Where’s everybody going?

Tokyo Station by night. I’m amazed to watch the constant snaking in and out of the station of the long, long trains they have here in Japan. From the 32nd floor here it looks like a giant train set (if only I had a bank of remote controls!) But as I gaze down on all [...]

When I turned fifty I celebrated with a flight in a hot air balloon. Standing in that small basket, the intermittent roar and heat of a burner over my head, peering over the edge of the woven cane, entranced by the red earth of the Atlas mountains receding beneath my feet, was the strangest feeling.

I was recently reminded – “this is your last chance to enjoy today” Here’s the morning dew on someone’s front lawn – beautiful, huh? Once you start to look for what sparkles, you can see it everywhere. I especially like the sparkles in children’s eyes. Enjoy today – it won’t be back.

Every year I look forward to the blossoming of this Magnolia in the garden outside my consulting room. It won’t flower for long but that makes it even more special. I enjoyed it today. What are you going to enjoy today?

When I looked across the forest from the path, the colours, the shapes of the trees, and the diversity of it all, caught my attention. Pointing my iPhone (only working camera I had with me!) at what I could see, I captured the scene. Mmmm…lovely colours. Then when I got home, I viewed the photos [...]
National Portrait Gallery. Edinburgh
Posted in art, from the dark room, photography on March 25, 2012 | 2 Comments »
In the main foyer of the National Portrait Gallery in Edinburgh, as well as the spectacular friezes, there are these stunning lamps. I was especially taken by the design of the chains supporting the lamps – look at the lovely three circles within a greater circle, creating an inner Celtic triskele….
