- Open Observation
Whilst sat in the park grounded to the earth and open to the world in every way and moment, I glanced at the side and spotted this beautiful picture. Vivid in light and a real representant of the world we live in capturing both nature and everyday usage of substance objects. A moment of true appreciation for this experience.

Dear Julie Ann,
Thanks for stopping by.
Yes, it was wonderful and clean and crisp and nor too cold.
Happy you had a nice day too, and you enjoyed seeing the lake in your neck of the woods.
Happy Every Day Month too.
I love when I spot these little moments of beauty. They’re everywhere if we look!
Dear Leah,
Indeed, just as they are.
Nice to see you back.
Beautiful moment! Yes, sometimes you see beauty even in a dry leaf! perhaps it’s the way nature expresses & make us feel happy when we find beauty in the most ordinary things around…

Dear Basant Singh,
Thank you for stopping by.
The beauty I experienced was of the whole moment and the equal place of the cup, the leafs, the grass and the ground.
It is quite amazing the way nature expresses itself to us isn’t it.
Thank you for the insightful share.
the white cup thing shouldn’t be there, it damaging the view.. but it still nice picture..
Agreed.
The white cup shouldn’t be there. It takes a way from the leaves on the grass.

Dear SK,
Thanks for stopping by.
That’s an interesting view to have.
I think it deserves it’s place there with equal value to the leafs, the grass and the ground just as it is.
Dear Izzat Aziz,
In what way do you think it is damaging the view?
I find it is a perfect reminder of everyday life and brings to light acceptance in the way things are.
We tend to avoid “everyday usage of substance objects” when we take pictures on Nature.
We may have fooled ourselves.
Dear rainfield,
I think that’s an interesting observation you make, though it would depend on what each person sees in the end.
That’s indeed a beautiful view, and the cups are from our carelessness!

Excellent picture. I agree with rainfield, we tend to only include the nature in our nature shots, but I think you have a good point. We can’t ignore the man made elements of our lives and we should use them as a symbol for the connectedness our man made world has with the natural world. I’ll definitely be more open to such scenes from now on. -Scott
Dear hot oil unions,
I am glad that you understand this, as this is the reality taking in the whole experience of man made and nature.
Thanks for stopping by.
For me it is often sounds in addition to images. When I’m very centered and my mind is open, I notice the differences in birds’ songs. It like to listen for the differences in their melodies as they communicate. Amazing!

Dear Nea,
Happy that you like listening to the birds communicate.
It is wonderful to capture all that is around isn’t it, and being observant in sounds is just as important as vision.
If you look at a dry leaf it may not bring any joy to your face but when you see a bunch of them lying a ina prk with sunny day it will freshen up your day.
Dear James,
A dry leaf does bring great joy to my life. This is one capture I share to bring insight into the whole experience rather than the focus of just nature.
Thanks so much for dropping by.
Appreciate your view.
Just a wonderful picture with bright sunshine.It reminds me of a beautiful fall morning.
Dear Phillip,
I am happy you like, and that it reminds you of such.
Thanks for stopping by.
