Share each Friday, on your own blog, one photo…or maybe even a gallery of some of your favorite photos that you have taken during the week, that make you smile or that was a great photo capturing opportunity…anything really! And as photographers are often known to say, “The best camera is, the one that you have with you!”

Thursday

Not a pretty day
The lack of sun
Cannot be fun

The icy cold mist
Does nothing to enlist
To the fan base
Of this common day
Also known
As Thursday

Oh, but look!
There might be hope
In the horizon
The sun is arising!
All hail
It’s Thursday!

Optimistic (The Daily Post) Five

The Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge: Optimistic

This week show us something you’re optimistic about, or perhaps a talisman that helps you stay positive and hopeful, regardless of what life (and the weather!) throws your way.

coffee, half full

“Half full or half empty? That is the question, isn’t it!” Gun Roswell

Optimistic (The Daily Post) Five

The cup
Is always
Half full
The liquid
May run out
For a time
But sooner
And not later
It will be
Filled up
Again

Optimistic (The Daily Post) Four

Winter?
So what!
I don’t care!
I am feeling
Quite optimistic
Riding my bike
Sitting on a bench
So what if it snows
It’s almost June!

“I believe any success in life is made by going into an area with a blind, furious optimism” Sylvester Stallone

Optimistic (The Daily Post) Three

The hustle and bustle
The busy working life
Because I have
Holiday on my mind
And soon it will be time
To unwind

Sunshine on a winter’s day
The nature’s showing a halo
The cold and snow to fade
And soon, it will be May

“Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence” Helen Keller

Optimistic (The Daily Post) One

Living, breathing, growing
Even if it is still snowing
Bending not breaking
Sometimes shaking
But soon it will be warm
After the cold and storm

Throwback Thursday 2016-01-28

Each Thursday we walk down memory lane and dig deeply into the archives of Rantings Of A Third Kind. For these posts, I have chosen some of my personal favourites. Some of them may tickle the funny bone, some even provoke thoughts and some of them will give you a view of the world in photographs taken by yours truly.

Here are a few featured today for your enjoyment today:
