Sun bathing
We’re in charge of our photo adventures. Adventure means taking a different path. It can mean getting down on the ground for a really low angle shot, or photographing not the entire flower but a backlit petal.

Today’s Capture Your 365 Challenge is Backlit. I had a little struggle with this one as it’s not something I do very often. That was one of the reasons I decided to take on some of the prompts. For the challenge (and the fun of the challenge).

Misty sunrise
When we are alone on a starlit night, when by chance we see the migrating birds in autumn descending on a grove of junipers to rest and eat; when we see children in a moment when they are really children, when we know love in our hearts; or when, like the Japanese poet, Basho, we hear an old frog land in a quiet pond with a solitary splash — at such times the awakening, the turning inside out of all values, the “newness,” the emptiness and the purity of vision that make themselves evident, all these provide a glimpse of the cosmic dance.

Waiting for the beekeepers
The opposite of talking isn’t listening. The opposite of talking is waiting.

This week’s Daily Post photo challenge is Waiting. Now that my computer is working again (thank you, M the Younger!), I was able to go to my archives for a few photos to fit the theme.
