Once in a while ii stops raining in Melbourne!
I can’t go to work on a day like this. Sorry, I just can’t do it.
Its funny how if you are in a big huge space you feel alone unless you have someone with you. I guess that’s what friends are for.
Once in a while you find something special.
The bark of these Australian trees is so beautiful. Most of the time I just walk by and don’t notice anything. I guess I do that with most people too. I have to start hugging more trees and more people.
At the end of the day I often look back and think about how much I did not do. I know that is bad but I do it. The good news is by the next day I forget about it and the day before seems pretty good.
Do you ever get the feeling someone up there is keeping an eye on us. I don’t know if I should feel happy or sad about that. Probably it is my mom, she was always disappointed with my chores.
Have you ever had a holiday you never forget. This is a photo of one of those days. I am glad I have this photo because it reminds me of that day.
Its nice to be the same and its nice to be different. If we were not different then we could not be the same. If you get my drift.
I wonder if flowers have the same insecurities I felt in High School. I was around friends but always felt awkward. I wonder if flowers have friends in the garden and I wonder if they have arguments and other silly problems. Maybe I would have been better off being a flower. But it’s kinda crazy because I also think the flower wishes it could be a photographer. Its a problem.
This is just a flower but as I sit here looking at it I am deeply moved by the exquisite beauty. Of course I can’t just enjoy it I have to start the thinking process as to why it beautiful. What is beauty? Who made it beautiful? Why do I think it is beautiful? For that matter why did my Mom think I was beautiful? Don’t worry, these are just rhetorical questions.
Its weird how a small human being can conceive of the whole universe and consider what happened since the beginning of time to the present. Who would have suspected this person walking along the beach was thinking about the whole universe and worrying about what will happen when the sun explodes in a few billion years.
When the sun is about to set and I realize that the day is over and I am not going to accomplish what I wanted to do that day I feel sad. Its funny how at the start of the day I think I will get alot done but by sunset I have to acknowledge that it is not going to happen. Oh well there’s always tomorrow. Got to run.
Tree bark is usually not very interesting but this looks like some kind of writing. It made me recall the expression “Writing on the wall” which means something is pretty inevitable. I am not sure what the tree is trying to say. Am I missing something?
Some days are so beautiful but I know that they won’t last long. This was one of those days and now looking back on it; I am sad that it was over so quickly. I think I need some help to stay happy and “in the moment.” I was not happy on that day because I knew it would not last and now I am not happy because it is gone. What a mess.
If I was a spaceman and came to earth, I would disguise my spaceship as a cloud. The other day I looked up and saw someone doing just that. It is amazing how much we have in common with spacemen.
Sometimes I feel really fresh and awake and other times I feel a bit dull. I wish I could always feel like these flowers look. I wonder what they think of me and how I look. I hate to think.
In the summer when its too hot I long for the cool days of winter, but now that it is winter I really look forward to the warm days of summer. I don’t think I will ever be happy.
Sometimes I feel stuck. I am trying to accomplish stuff but nothing happens. I feel worse when I just wait but what else can you do when you are stuck?
I really get annoyed with people who just waste time doing nothing all day. But when I am in the office working, I really resent that I can’t be doing nothing too.
With a little bit of imagination I can see these clouds as flying fish. I wonder if fish have dreams of flying, I do.
Maybe she is thinking about all the lost years she threw away and now she longs to meet him again. But more likely she is thinking about what to cook for dinner.
Nature has a way of making colours that are so stunning that it kinda makes me wonder if someone up there was trying to impress me. Well let me say that I am impressed.
I know things like clouds and rocks are not alive but sometime they look like they could be people. This was a cloud that looked like a person. I found it weird because it was a storm yet the water was calm. Sometime I don’t understand people and I never understand clouds. Or maybe its the other way around.
Once in a while the heavenly shades of night start falling and I feel like I am in a storybook. This happened a while ago and I was lucky to get a photo of the whole thing. Now I need to write a story so I can put the picture in the story book where it belongs.
Nice thing about having a partner is you have someone to go home with at the end of the day. The nice thing about the end of the day is you get to go home with your partner. Amazing how things work out for the best sometimes.
When I am walking along thinking about all my problems and feeling sorry for myself, I sometimes look up and when I see this kinda stuff it makes me wonder if I understand anything.
I was walking along the beach thinking about something far away and suddenly realized I was not at home but realized I was feeling right at home at the beach.
Sometimes I wonder who is walking who. The dog seems to be more aware of what is going on then the humans.
I love a sunny day when the water is clear and the sky is blue. This was not one of those days. But it had its own beauty. It was cold and windy and I could feel the sand blasting on my ankles from the intense wind. I think I prefer the sunny days.
There are some people who are eager to meet and talk to you. When I met this flower it was very enthusiastic to have a chat. I was really busy so I couldn’t stop and talk but it made me realize how rare people are who are willing to open up and be a friend. Now thinking about it, I think I am like that.
After the rain clears this flower was out looking for the sun. Kinda reminds me of a girl I knew in High School who also loved the sun.
Did you ever notice that after winter; spring comes for a few days and then it’s back to winter again. Sometimes I think the weather is a lesson in success. You just have to keep going and someday the sun will shine. But in the meantime you get rained on once in a while. But in Melbourne you get rained on all the time.
Just at sunset everybody gets together and starts talking.SHOP
Do you ever feel like you are in a terrible rush to go somewhere and do something important but you are really not sure what you are doing or why it is so important. Well you are not alone.SHOP
After a busy day I often reflect on what I actually accomplished and realize that mostly what I do does not make any difference, really. So what are we doing here anyway? What’s the point of all this? Kinda makes me wonder what it’s all about. Do you ever think about that kind of stuff?SHOP
Sometimes I wonder how I find anything at all. The world is so big and I have so much in my mind. Where does it all come from and where is it all stored?SHOP
On a clear blue day I think about how small my inner space has become. What would happen if I became as big as the sky and headed off into deep space.SHOP
It’s amazing what a stunning photo can do for a room.SHOP
The problem with wings is you have no hands.SHOP
Do you ever find yourself waiting somewhere for something but you are not sure about either one?SHOP
Sometimes living on this planet seem really weird.
Sometimes we look in the strangest places to find truth.SHOP
Sometimes when I think about where I used to be, I feel far from home. SHOP
My dad used to tell me to stop looking at the ground. Now I see why.SHOP
It was just about sunset and I was on my way home when I came across this flower that was casting its shadow on the fence. The colour harmony was so nice and the flower was wishing me a good evening. So I stopped to say hello and had a short talk about how the day had been. It was a bit shy but reluctantly allowed me to take its picture. As I walked away it said, “See ya later.”SHOP
The wind took the day off and the clouds had nowhere to go. The water was so flat that the birds decided to walk. I lay down and slept and dreamt of the days when I thought I was sad, but now think I was actually happy.SHOP
I stopped to take this picture and the old lady came out and asked me what I was doing. I thought she was upset with me but I explained that I was taking a photo of her beautiful flowers. She was thrilled. In the 70 years she had lived there no one had ever commented on her flowers. She loved me. SHOP
We suffered through a long cold winter and on the first warm day we met the flowers. They were complaining about the long winter too. SHOP
Large photos can look stunningly beautiful in the right setting. This is what the image of “Writing on the Tree” would look like above a couch. A good photo can turn a normal room into a stunningly beautiful living or work space. For more details click on any of the images below or click the SHOPPING CART button in the menu to the left.
When day meets night they start to dance and we get sunsets.
