Saturday was a down day. A day to dwell on problems rather than on possibilities. A day when the worst case scenarios seemed like the most likely ones. But when days like this happen, as they do, I’ve learned enough to take myself outside. There I found some things that made me smile–little rays of optimism that pierced my dismal fog.
And today, my book summed up my feelings perfectly: “I found nature’s indifference to my cares and concerns oddly consoling. If I ever started sinking into despair, I need only step outdoors and look around at the glorious green world.” Paul Doiron
Nix the comfort zone 
Your amazing photos must be such a comfort to you. They allow you to be an artist by seeing things as an artist sees them. So inspiring. I need to go on the 5 steps of jealousy about your photography. What do you advise as my action step? Other than picking up the camera.

Yes. Step outside and wield that camera. And then you not only improve your day, you make mine brighter too! I love that rain drop!

What a great quote – I’m writing that one down. And I love how your world and mine are blossoming at a similar pace – I’d swear I saw the same scilla!

I have to say your camera takes more vivid and precise pictures than my iPhone12. Then again, maybe it’s the photographer!
