I only wanted to take a photo of a fountain, backlit by a low sun.
Well, I managed, but something else happened as I pressed the shutter release. A bird arrived to enjoy the water. That serendipitous happening completely changed the nature of the photo, and took it to a higher level.
I love this photo because it tells me that you can never be completely sure of what is going to fill this present moment. But when you are awake, when you’re aware and really present, then you can truly catch the moment.
