A Pond Near My Home

I like taking water shots without a filter - just the light and my own perspective. It's similar to how I view Life.

light plays with shadow and reflection 
a changing canvas of
intuition and substance 
reality through the
filter of judgement

The Sky's the Limit

I'm transfixed by a pink vision on the rock



long hair billowing she synchronizes 
balancing, stretching, and pulling 




quickly scaling the height


My 8 year old Granddaughter climbing in Breckenridge

finally releasing (the scariest part for me)
she flutters downward 
gracefully rappelling back to Earth

no big deal
just 
skill and trust
and
believing in yourself

Perspective

I remind myself:
Worry is never productive.
It doesn't solve any problems.
Fear grows out of proportion.
Worry makes a problem bigger than it actually is.

Confidence

not knowing the route 
or worrying about dangers
just forging ahead

I ask them to stay safe and healthy

yes it's true

I do
