noon at Schoodic Bay

Photo of the Day 167/365

This photo will bring me good memories for a long time. We visited Acadia National Park about 2 weeks ago and on one of the last days, we went to Schoodic and on our way out he asked to stop at a pull off. He jumpted out of the car and went running on the rocks. His wife and I followed to take photos. He wanted a last chance to run/jump on the rocks. You can barely see him at the left of the just to the right of the pine tree. It was a great trip and I can't wait to get back.

Singing Bowls

Images Exposed Daily Photo Challenge

Monday Fill-the-Frame: These are my singing bowls. They are not the big ones but are still beautiful and sound (to me) just as beautiful. To make them sing, most people think you strike them first and then keep the sound moving by moving the wooden peg around. This is incorrect, you (should) start by silently touching the peg to the bowl and moving it around the rim in and make it sing gently - that's where the meditative aspects come from. Smaller bowls are harder to make sing than larger ones, too.

Red Tinged Clouds over the Trees Photo of the Day 345/366 I took the photo last week on the way home. It was a wonderful sunset sky and I couldn't pass up taking a number of shots while it was available. These clouds with the red edges from the setting sun were a wonderful sight over these trees just behind the rolling field in the foreground. A nice evening sky for sure.

    Photo of the Day 307/365  Autumn Colors on Display by the Creek This photo was taken last weekend on our mini-vacation. We were on our way home and happened to find a pull-off - in the rain - and I took some photos by this creek. The colors just seemed to pop in the damp drizzly weather but the camera couldn't quite capture the bright colors. I didn't want to over-edit it but this is close to what I experienced that moment.

Tracks into the Sunset Photo of the Day 342/366 This photo was taken last evening on the way home from work. I took a number of photos and could not quite get the sun peeking through  the clouds. This is the closest I got. I love the colors in the sky and the reflections in the railroad tracks. I've taken this scene before, but it always makes me think of life moving on and on, rolling into the sunset of life - as I get older, those thoughts become more frequent.
