Again, the ever-beautiful Isobella…
The opportunity to capture beauty in its raw simplicity is an honour. And photographing Isobella is just that. A beautiful soul who never fails to shine with every image taken…
Signs…
Signs are everywhere. Some are easily seen, some are subtle: such are the signs of life. Subtle indicators of life, left for another to see..
A home abandoned?
An unfinished repair…
A collection of well used boards…
A statement…
A lesson finished
Humanity…
Humanity’s footprints. They are there, everywhere…
A collection of shoes in the carpark, yet there was not a soul on the beach?
Malaysia
An unfinished repair…
Construction…
Adventure…
I love dogs. They are always on an adventure of sorts: sniffing, hunting, playing, searching or simply being the beautiful beings that they are…
And you are?
Hmmm should I?

Side by side, always…
Weeeeeeeee….
I know it was here somewhere…
A little routine…
There is something to be said for routine.
Having made positive changes in my life, I am now a silent and content witness to watching life unfold, through routines that are complete and solid in nature.
Free to now shape my own routine, I fall easily in step with the established routine of others.
He walks with bowed legs, a crooked stick aiding crooked legs. His smile is wide, shining its light upon those who share his morning. His frayed cap is tipped ever so slightly, a silent acknowledgment of my presence with his.
He runs. Panting, sensing and sniffing his well-travelled path. A worn, tattered rope connecting her to him, keeps him close and without flight. She too smiles and bids me good morning.
They are there with me, sharing routines.
As I walk, Regret does not walk alongside me. There is simply happiness and fulfilment for having chosen a routine that is reflective of who I am, and who I have always needed to be.
Sunday…
A beautiful Sunday with my five favourite beings…

If we take the time to look: life truly is AMAZING…
How often do we take the time to strip away what can be defined as difficult times, only to reveal a different truth to the one we thought we knew?
Yes, that sentence is quite complex. But think about it. We can often think we’ve been dealt a tough hand, a bad deal, a horrible time.
Define it how you will, but it comes down to thinking life has not always been kind.
This may well be true in part.
But look deeply. Look hard. What do you really find?
Personally. At this moment, as I sit here listening to music and lolling through old images on the 23rd of May, 2014. I come to a realisation about life.
I’ve had an amazing life.
I’m truly one of the lucky ones.
I’ve travelled. I’ve lost. I’ve cried. I’ve laughed.
I’ve LOVED. And I’ve been LOVED.
What more could I want?
Here’s a few of my favourite images, taken by me and for me that depict a great life.
Life truly is amazing!
Embrace it!
Always…

We never know where our road shall lead us, or the direction it may take…
Take time to embrace new discoveries and reflect upon past journeys.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Horizon
On November 5th, I will be heading off to discover new horizons as I shall be spending the next 12 months on Penghu, an island off the coast of Taiwan. This week’s theme therefore was quite fitting, for I’ll be bidding farewell to my current horizons that are familiar and comforting. And I shall be also saying goodbye to friends and family, and someone who falls into both of those categories is my niece, Kate: she is new to WordPress, take a look at her first Photo Challenge. I think she’s amazing.
