"Flow with whatever is happening and let your mind be free. Stay centered by accepting whatever you are doing. This is the ultimate". ~Chuang Tzu~
WANNABE WARMER WEDNESDAY #6
Can't believe I'm still here. LOL. My attention span leaves a lot to be desired. My favorite of all the summer blossoms are the water lily/lotus from the Chicago Botanic Garden. I could sit with them all day long because every time you turn around they're a little more open, a little more closed, lighted differently. The last couple of years had been hard to shoot them. 2020 brought closures from the pandemic and 2021 brought construction to my two favorite parts of the Garden. Here's to hoping that 2022 is going to be a better year!! ♥
Full Flow
We have just spent the last few days in Glencoe in which we had some mixed conditions weather wise. This is the River Coupall looking towards Buachaille Etive Mor, heavy rain over the previous days lead to a very full flowing river and with late afternoon light helping to enhance the mood.

At midstream you stand, the flowing current
touch your feet, transient, fleeting, in an instant.
Flows the water current, constantly touching you
How many cusecs of it, you think, belongs to you ?
Either consider the entire water current is yours
else be certain, really nothing of it is yours
What you belong to is what that belongs to you
Yet, own nothing of the Whole that you belong to
Only class of conscious force is at work
in all parts of each thing of everything Here
All five elements have come into existence
by reason of distinct discrimination of essence
Comfort and discomfort experienced by the senses
Chemical reactions of different types of substances
which collide with the senses in different conditions
and create subtle , entirely varied vibrations
All mental and physical substance, existent
Are part of the incessant flowing force, consistent
Substances flow unceasing, uninterrupted
Your belongings are eternal, unlimited.
Immortal Soul is pure, in union with One
'I' am part of the Whole, which contains me.
Whole is One, a part of which 'I' am wholly
at one with the One, the Whole belongs to me.

A look forward minus the ice and snow, when she could run free. Thanks for looking and may your day be smooth!

I adore waterfalls. Why, you ask? Oh, there are many reasons I could cite. How much time do you have?
Talking about time (and waterfalls), one thing I like about waterfalls is how they flow at a constant rate as if there is no need to keep an eye on the time. As if, they themselves are the Time, flowing constantly in one direction for no reason and with no regret whatsoever.
PS: I have been to the beautiful Shenandoah NP twice, but didn't post a photo thereof for any particular reason. That changes now.

Cottam Power Station. The River Trent was flowing fast...left to right...along with the late afternoon clouds shifting along on a stiff breeze. The long exposure helps recreate the sense of 'Flow' to my mind.

After posting a shot with Worthing pier in it yesterday I thought I would post another in totally different conditions.
A high tide sunset with waves coming in can be a tricky game sometimes along this beach as there are some steeply shelving banks of shingle to catch out the unknowing.
Here I was taking shots as I was heading towards the pier between the sets of Wooden groynes, the sun was now behind the bank of cloud but still giving me some lovely colour.
I did not want a long exposure to take away all the detail of the sea but just enough to capture the flow back from a receding wave, you have to be smart on the remote button at the right time.
Anther wet and windy day here , got a soaking on a walk first thing and looks like it will be wet around sunset time again not that a sunset looks likely again today.
Apparently, I am easily amused spending countless hours thinking about lights and motion My mornings are spent blowing bubbles, waving my arms and lights around in the dark, and hoping for magic. I've mentioned that I am not one that feels like sitting and meditating does anything for me but the act of creating my photos puts me in a flow state. It is one of the times I can maintain mental focus for a prolonged period of time. What activities help you?
The streams were full of water this day in Cliff Gilker Park. The multitude of tiny waterfalls were flowing, and produced a plethora of opportunities. In this shot, the foliage is full, the two waterfalls are overflowing, and crested with an untamed rapid..
When taking this image, I was thinking how this could be most anywhere, how it appeared almost tropical with growth, and how very abundant with life the scene appeared. I purposefully restricted the scene to the bare minimum in order to help convey the feeling of concentrated flow.

Snow drifts flow past sage brush with frosted mountains in the distance. This Bear Lake Valley scene is between Bennington and Georgetown, Idaho
Rising below the slopes of Mynydd y Drum in the foothills of the Brecon Beacons, the River Dulais is a flash flood river, which has been the driving force for over 400 years of industrial innovation.
The torrent flows down the Dulais valley for approximately 13 kilometres (8 miles), south-west through the villages of Seven Sisters and Crynant before cascading over the Aberdulais waterfall – the source of this image.
Here it joins the River Neath close to the tidal reaches near Tonna.
The gorge in which the river and waterfall now lie was formed about 20,000 years ago. As a glacier further up the valley melted, the resulting melt water slowly cut its way down through the 300-million-year-old rock. This can be seen on the west side of the gorge today.
The rock is Pennant sandstone, which is a very severely compressed bed of sand. Beneath it is a layer of coal, that has been gradually eroded by the flowing water allowing the rock above to collapse and form the Falls as we see them today.
In wet weather, and in winter, when the river is in full spate, it's a truly awesome - and noisy - spectacle. My image ‘Flow,’ tries to reflect that experience.
