even grander than *the grand*

A trip to antelope canyon is like you have been tripping on something incredible.



Gives a new meaning to the term "water colour painting". After all, the water has been working at it since about a million years.

the roads i took

Two paths, each made of wood
Looked down both, and try as I could
Was any better? I could not sense.

I walked down one, it ended soon;
Took the other on my return
It made not the slightest difference.


I need to get better at path selection :)

blind spot

There's still no light at the end of the tunnel, but the tunnel itself has morphed into a blazing cacophony of all sorts of green. Bright. And beautiful. Seduces you away from plodding away behind that elusive light.

You can stay strong and continue the search.

You can flirt awhile, rejoice in the spring, soak in the summer sun, and then make a scrambled move on, when the hardships of winter come knocking again.

Or, you can stay enamored for a lifetime. Now, would that be such a bad thing ?

.. on the breath of god

A feather, that is.

Collected the book on a whim from the local library, and floated into a world of an entrant into the New World. An immigrant in the land of immigrants, yet individual as the newer one. Accepted on merit - isn't that what is expected in the promised land ?
As one searching for identity, she lives the eternal question - does the search lie in the future, in one's actions, or in the past, in one's heritage ?

It was good reading, if only for the fact that it is easy to empathise with the same question.

supermoon

I was there, and so were a hundred others.

To watch the biggest moon of the century rise.
Over the vast plain where Washington once watched the movement of the British troops.

Even at that distance, it dwarfed everything in sight.


I did not get the photographs I wished for, but it was a scene of a lifetime.

Just f8 and be there ... With so many memories, some are surely going to stick on to the sensor !

wavy

They wear down the rocks, and then we put in some more concrete blocks for them to grind against.

Still, the determination does not waver.

standing guard

Over another pier, at another beach.

At a time when the place is virtually unrecognizable, which may not be such a bad thing.
There are more gulls around than people.
Courtesy winter.
