sharleenstuartProject 10: Dec 2014: Simplicity
Project 10 is a group that I have participated in as a guest blogger for the past year. I really enjoy their choice of topics. Sometimes I come up with something, sometimes I am totally stumped. Sometimes I come up with the topic after the fact. This month was a good month for me. I love to walk in the wetlands. It gives me the opportunity to de-stress from my day to day job which has just changed again. Same company different workload. Another learning curve. That is all I seem to have done the past 2 years.
Walking in the wetlands also offers me something else. The opportunity to see wildlife in it’s natural form. Birds, gators, raccoons, bobcats (although I have yet to see it close up), otto’s (them too). I love it. I grew up being taught to appreciate nature. We had all sorts of critters in our home. Taking this walk just really settles my soul.
However, you can only take a Moorhen so many times and it becomes a little boring. So when I walk I tend to look for different things and experiment a little with how I take the photo. So here is the simplicity of nature as I see it through my eyes.
” A Withered Maple leaf has left its branch and is falling to the ground; its movements resemble those of a butterfly in flight. Isn’t it strange? The saddest and deadest of things is yet so like the gayest and most vital of all creatures?”
~ Ivan Turgeneve, Fathers and Sons
Thank you for letting me post in this group. I have really enjoyed staying a part of it and I am glad I was able to get it done. I hope that you all have a blessed Christmas and a very happy New Year. May you dream constantly, and may those dreams come to fruition in 2015.
