Primum inter Pares (2013)

#SilentSunday #Photography #Photo #Pictures #Picture #Italy #Spring #NaturePhotography

This photo, titled "Primum inter Pares," showcases a bucolic landscape, capturing the essence of the countryside. A trail meanders through a vibrant green field of tall grasses, bending gently with the breeze. The focus is on a few strands of grass, standing slightly taller than their companions, symbolizing leadership and equality. They arc elegantly against a dramatic backdrop of a cloudy sky that blends shades of white, grey, and a hint of blue. The overall atmosphere is one of peaceful coexistence within the natural world.

"Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend." ~ Melody Beattie

#quote #gratitude #NaturePhotography

"All respect for the office of the presidency aside, I assumed that the obvious and unadulterated decline of freedom and constitutional sovereignty, not to mention the efforts to curb the power of judicial review, spoke for itself." ~ Ruth Bader Ginsburg

A sunbeam filters through the dense foliage, illuminating a vibrant pomegranate flower in full bloom. The delicate petals, a striking blend of deep orange and creamy white, stand out against the glossy green leaves. In the background, more blossoms hint at the abundance of the plant, creating a serene and lush scene. The overall atmosphere is peaceful and almost magical, perfectly encapsulating a moment of natural beauty and tranquility.

Evening comes. And brings silence, colour and peace.

(Photo date: 6th December 2013)

Evening is coming, there’s a small river, some plants and some fields. The light is becoming orange and the clouds have nice colours. The orange sky is reflected by the river, and everything is calm and peaceful.

Silent Sunday

#Photography #Photo #Picture #Pic #SilentSunday #NaturePhotography #Italy #Spring #Peace

A tranquil rural landscape at sunset, with the golden light of the fading sun casting a warm glow over a field. A serene pond in the foreground reflects a solitary tree with budding leaves, alongside other flora gently swaying in the breeze. Fluffy clouds scatter across the sky, hinting at the end of a clear day. This peaceful scene is captured in a photo that exudes the quiet stillness of a 'Silent Sunday'.

Spring Silent Sunday

Silence. In colours.

#Photography #Photo #Picture #Pic #SilentSunday #Spring #Italy #NaturePhotography #SpringPhotography

A tranquil expanse of canola blossoms paints a vivid yellow sea under the vast dome of a gentle blue sky. Wispy clouds meander lazily above. This picturesque scene, christened "Spring Silent Sunday," whispers of nature's serene beauty on a day of rest. The earth seems to lie in contented silence, save for the soft rustle of flowering canola. A distant line of trees stands as silent sentinels on the horizon, their foliage a dark punctuation to the bright field. It's a landscape that invites one to pause, breathe, and relish the quietude of spring's embrace.

I've created a 2025 calendar using bird pictures I took in 2024. It's free, so pass it on to bird-loving friends. Here's the link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OzbiOhuY4ulVrHKO7TFlZDBd9qCNHPUu/view?usp=drive_link

"Our goal is not just an environment of clean air and water and scenic beauty. The objective is an environment of decency, quality, and mutual respect for all other human beings and all other living creatures." ~ Gaylord Nelson

#quote #NaturePhotography #respect

Line of very tall grasses with seed heads dormant from the previous year stand tall next to trees that are beginning to develop green leaves. To the left of the dormant grasses short green grass extends toward a tree line in the distance. A couple of short bushes also on the verge of developing new growth are near the camera. The sky overhead is bright blue and cloudless.

"The truth is what facts are. I like facts. I like things to line up and be clear, and when we are honest and true about things, it helps things to make sense, and it cuts out a lot of the fat that gets in the way and causes for the misunderstandings that I believe lead to violence and... dysfunction, etc." ~ Amanda Seales

An autumnal view of a lake in late afternoon sunlight with changing colors of the leaves on the trees and bushes. A tree branch near the camera with brown leaves frames the right side of the view and a partial view of a bush with red and green leaves is on the left with green reeds in the center with a patch of green algae hugging the shoreline in the foreground. A blue sky with a few fluffy with clouds is above the tree line in the sun along the shore in the distance where a pier extends onto the lake.
