“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

“No spring nor summer’s beauty hath such grace
As I have seen in one Autumnal face…” John Donne
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…
Photo Rehab, The Clinic: Week 41 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
Check out all the magnificent photographs for this week from Lucile’s site:

October, Rocktober, Sobtober? Part One
Little if no sunlight
Feeling the urge of flight
Looking through windows
Outside tall shadows
Cold weather gracing us
With minus degrees Celsius
Colours quickly a fading
The nature slowly graying
October or sobbtober
Surely nothing to rock over
You followed September
Surely, a month to remember
But, as life always has a twist
Therefore I must insist
This time, this October
Was truly a rocktober
With sunshine in abundance
And colours of substance
So far nothing to complain about
No time for doubt or pout
Both spirit and camera uplifted
With feelings of being gifted
With a beautiful October
In honour of Caturday, for all Cats

Caturday 2015-10-10
Happy with my kitty
So I wrote this little ditty
Why don’t you sing along
To the tune of this familiar song
Soft kitty, warm kitty
Purring on my lap
Sleepy kitty, happy kitty
Why don’t I too take a nap
My little ball of fur
Listening to you purr
Life is kind of a blur
But this is how I prefer

“When the sun has set, no candle can replace it.” George R.R. Martin
Friday, Sunset in Suburbia, Prequel
Waiting, impatiently
Holding my position
By the window
Nothing moves
No other sounds heard
But the clicking
Of my camera
Rehearsing for
The main event
I am fully prepared
For the sunset…

“When the sun has set, no candle can replace it.” George R.R. Martin
Friday, Sunset in Suburbia
Sitting at the window
In my little house
In deepest of suburbia
Watching the clouds
As they pass by
The sun slowly setting
Disappearing behind
The tall buildings
I keep on clicking
Capturing the turn
Of the brightest day
Into the darkest of nights
