Photo Rehab, The Clinic: Week 42 Wrap Up

“In December 2014, after completing the Photo101 course, I opened the Photo Rehab Event in this blog, a ‘healing clinic’, for all of us who love photography (hobbyists, amateurs, pro-shooters and enthusiasts) who missed the course and daily interaction with other photobloggers” Lucile De Godoy

“No spring nor summer’s beauty hath such grace
As I have seen in one Autumnal face…” John Donne

October Sunrise 

… The longer you stare
    Into the bright glare
    The red gets in control
    Devouring the sky whole

October Sunrise 

Sunrise, higher than high
In the early October sky
Over the morning clouds
The sun has spread its shroud
Blues and reds playing in a mix
Eyes staring completely transfixed
The cool crisp air caressing
Almost feels like singing…

A response to Sylvain’s challenge theme of communications
“Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools because they have to say something” Plato

SL WEEK 15: Communications; Lesson in Water Guns

“So listen carefully, because I shall say this only once”

Others nodding in unison.

“This is the safety, once you pull it back, you can shoot.”

Everyone staring in awe and with a bewildered look on their faces.

“You know what a safety is?”

“Um…” “Um” “No?”

“OK, I will show you one more time. Now watch and listen carefully!”

“Oh, too much sun?”
“Sun?”
“Yes, sun. From laying on the beach?”
“No, I heard it was a cooking accident.”
“Cooking?”

“Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony” Mahatma Gandhi

Happy Place, At Sea (Part Three)

Step into the vessel
Forget the pressure
When setting sail
And hitting that trail

Hoping for
The gail to stay away
For a smooth journey
With a gentle sway
On the ocean’s gurney

“Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking” Marcus Aurelius

Happy Place, Seashore (Part Two)

Happiness
Is a little stretch of emptiness
Of seashore that is

Sitting on the rocks
Watching the waves
Feeling the misbehave
Tossing shoes and socks
Walking to the waterline
Reminders of cloud nine
Sand between the toes
Silently uttered woes
Of never leaving…
…Paradise

“The most important thing is to enjoy your life – to be happy – it’s all that matters” Audrey Hepburn

Happy Place, Poolside (Part One)

Don’t worry, be happy
And yes, do make it snappy
I know you’re not in a hurry
And you needn’t worry
The happy place
You were looking for
Never really stays
In one place for too long
Don’t try to act like a nut
But get off your butt
Hit that road
Follow the toad

Oh, but wait!
Happiness starts at home
So, don’t hesitate
Get into the zone
Forget for a while the rules
And just dive into the pool
