enjoy every moment.
The past, like the future, is indefinite and exists only as a spectrum of possibilities.
Stephen Hawking
This image brings to a close over 12,000 hits, four years of weekly blog posts, and a whole lot of changes.
I remember writing my first post and agonizing over the image choice and the words to accompany it. Today I realize that choices are just like pathways that we encounter on a daily basis and the more we get in touch with ourselves the easier it becomes to decide which one to take.
Today’s image was taken Christmas morning, just at the point when the sun was able to burn through the layer of fog shrouding the hoar frost covered landscape. It was reminiscent of one of my best selling images, Chair 6, captured from a chairlift on an equally foggy Christmas morning several years ago.
It’s those unique moments when a landscape becomes more than its physical self and is unlikely to ever look exactly that same way again.
For me that might have been the best gift of the day shared with a man who also shares my love for our natural world.
Photographing atmospherics is a passion of mine. It transforms a landscape and creates an image that speaks to infinite possibilities; a perfect image to accompany the approach of the New Year.
Stephen Hawking also encouraged us to be curious and to make sense of what we see, and to wonder about what makes the universe exist.
I am continually reminded to take each day as it comes, to make it count, and most of all, to never take it for granted.
Thank you to all who have been with me from the beginning and to those who have joined me along the journey.
May your New Year be filled with joy and a spectrum full of possibilities!
I blow you kisses. This is sublime.
