The truth always sets you free - it's just such a f**cker hearing it sometime and esp so when it rips the heart strings apart. And that's the type we all learn most from and grow most as people by and i mean that within the vein of my limited understanding of Buddhism and within my own faith frame work. There's lessons to be learned in pain, broken hearts and difficult truths if we chose to be taught by them. My Nan always said that in life when one door is slammed shut on you - 16 others will open up before you - and the key to life is to watch for those doors because they can be missed and else the misfortune traps you - find the one that opens to the best things and walk though it. The trick is to look for those 16 doors that are opening when one slams shut behind you. My Nan swore and lived by that and there's great truth there - i have found out by following her advise. And a truth i have added is that one of those doors you might just find a blessing that worth the most to you, and will turn out to be the most important to you, and it may be found just on the door step so watch you dont miss it in looking to far ahead because you may not recognise the blessing at 1st when it comes to you and will forever regret it if you let it pass.

I have 2 further Passion Flower images to add, Marsh Lake re-edited in colour with some extra views of the lake ( also in colour ) as well as "The Unforgotten Path" being re-edited in colour. I am having some issues finding the original file so if it is lost i shall be commencing a new field trip to the shoot location. I has always considered doing so anyway as i think it could be fun to capture the scene in different seasons to see of the central image of the path takes on a differing visual image if the scene is viewed in different seasons ( and therefore taken in varying light which i am hoping will effect the mood of the the scene ). So if i can't find the original file in my back catalogue it affords me an excellent excuse to take a field trip up there so actually which is fine with me as its a beautiful location and i do try to find every excuse i can to wander up there .

And introducing Tilly Beans :o)
