Spring: the season of new life. What looked dead in Nature comes to life again. Sometimes very easy; sometimes a struggle. The beginning of every life begins with seed, that plants itself or with a little help from us. The same with Love. Reminds me of the song The Rose from Bette Midler https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxSTzSEiZ2c Most pictures in this post will be flowers, because most flowers are on their best in Spring. Spring starts according to calendar on March 21. The...
Autumn or Fall is my birthseason. And it has also my favourite colours to wear. The dogs liked it too. Specially Izzie...walking through the leaves. In this post I will bring you these colours, but also the mysterious site of autumn: the Fog. Because for me Fog is a part of this season. It discovers the change in Nature for a reason, we don't know. A foggy early morning walk gives beautiful connections with nature. I made a collage...
A cat symbolise patience, but also elegance, curiosity, independence, protection, and magic. It hides itself on a place where it can look into the world. The one above and on the left side I met early mornings. She became a little more free with me and Izzie every morning. More cats on my path:
Although winter starts 21th december I will post all Snow- and Ice pictures in this season; even when the snow falls in Summer ;-). Sometimes you have to take a more closer look to see something beautifull.
A squirrel works hard and always prepares for the times ahead. It plans, places tactics, makes strategies, and is ready for anything that comes in its way. That's the reason why it is looking around all the time. When I see a squirrel, crossing my path, I think of the Dutch proverb "to crack a hard nut". I then go to myself to guess whether I still have a "a hard thing to do". I remember a morning, not so...
A horse's eye is the mirror of the soul, that's why I took the above picture for the Title page. Horses are common in mythology and in legends. In the past, they were often used as pack animals for all kinds of activities. People my age will remember the greengrocer with a horse and carrige. They were mostly sturdy horses. Horses are herd animals. When a horse is alone in a meadow, it radiates loneliness to me....
Clouds tell their own story. They may change form even more often, than humans change their mind. It is always a blessing to witness the metamorphoses. Never forget: behind the clouds there is always a Sun. In the mornings te rising sun can activate the colours in the sky The combination of the sky with the nature below gives a different picture than just an aerial photo. Especially if there is also reflection in water. On 11 februari 2020...
In India, cows rule the roads. Taxis, rickshaws and even ambulances come to a halt when a cow steps on the highway with its hoof. Because that is not the case here, in the Netherlands, the cows are a bit shy, as witnessed by the young at the top of the page. Left and right some of her cattle. The right one came very close to me; perhaps the Matriarch In walking and cycling areas, there are more and more...
A deer is my guiding spirit in the Underworld (Sjamanisme). I gave her the name Leila. A few days later I found on the place where I saw her in my journey a little Angel amulet with the letter "L". It's so sad we mostly see deers in captivity like the one above. Still I was lucky on a few days in 2019, because of my early morningwalks. The first was a moving on my right side on 23th july...
The moon and the planets reflect the light of the sun. Planets look like stars to us. Difference: Stars are always in the same position relative to each other (constellations), while planets move relative to the stars. For me it's an amazing world on his own. The moon is close to the earth and revolves around the earth. It reflects the light of the sun. Depending on her standing relative to the earth, we see that reflection from nothing to...
