When nothing is sure…
So plant your own gardens and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.~
The imapct of lock down on all of us is beyond measure. The sudden change in life style was difficult for many of us. I was fortunate enough as the idea of gardening came to my rescue. I am definitely not a homebody or hermite but I am managing it 🙂
I have a couple of flowering plants. The garden is blooming in various phases first tulips, then azaleas and rhododendrons with early perennials. Now roses are back but beautiful bright flowering zinnia are show stoppers.

Under the Sun
To me, photography is an art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting an ordinary place… I’ve found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.~ Elliott Erwitt
We have more possibilities available in each moment than we realize. ~Thich Nhat Hanh.
Amantea, South Italy
I agree with Amy’s point that as a tourist most of the time we have few minutes to caputre a scene under the sun. As a frequent traveller (pre covid 🤦♀️) I had faced similar situations and with restricted time in hand I have never said no to a tour to a wonderful place even though I know my limitations as a photographer. Visiting and enjoying places matter more than missing the chance for photo quality.

Sunday Trees: Silhouette
You cannot do silhouettes in fantasy. Ah, no, you must be faithful. It is, the art, a, what you call, paradox. It is always that you must be simple, and then, if you are simple, you will stimulate the imagination of the observer. ~Ugo Mochi
For Sunday Trees
Our default weather is back in action. It’s cold and rain from last night temperaure is around 11degree. Sigh!
Weekend 99: To heal
Sometimes we get busy in things we can’t bypass which means less time for hobby. I couldn’t get enough time to work on a post for last couple of days but all was for a good cause and so no regrets.
In the new normal, we try to maintain a rotuine of taking walk everyday. No hard exercising is possible as the gyms are still closed, a preferred choice is walking for atleast an hour ++. Here are some images from our recent walks.
What happens when people open their hearts?
They get better.
~ Norwegian Wood
The final stage of healing is using what happens to you to help other people. That is healing in itself. ~ Gloria Steinem

Moment of surprise
The world is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper.
There are in life a few moments so beautiful,that even words are a sort of profanity. ~
Even in the familiar there can be surprise and wonder.~

Contemplation…
What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.~

Monochrome Dandelions
If you see a dandelion as a weed, you’ll spray it. If you see it as a flower, you’ll draw it close, turn it this way and that, and become lost in the colossal burst of slender golden petals that spew sunshine into the darkest of souls. And so, how many things have we sprayed that could have illuminated our souls if we would have let them be more than what we let them be? ~
