Beautiful .. and yes, for me I will be forever grateful that photography allowed me to see the moments … which in turn often become little shards of memory …

It absolutely is about the connection - with nature but also with myself.

I will watch the video later. Enjoy the holidays!

100% about the moments, and how much more we notice. The sandpipers look charming. Happy Christmas Gill. I’ll look forward to seeing what next year brings for you.

I'm always so glad to see your photographs. They put me right in the place. But I've never seen a place like that one with the sun coming up through the old forest of oaks with the little purple flowers....that is crazy wonderful! I love your work1

Its about the connection. So well stated Gill! Your YouTube video was really good! I'm kind of at a crossroads of whether to continue with film, myself. For me, it is SO much work that my last few trips I found it detracting from my experience. We'll see.

I know we commented yesterday, but still, have a great holiday!

Thank you very much Erik. I am glad you enjoyed the video. I can understand what you say about the amount of work that goes into a video and I am sure it can take away the enjoyment from a trip. I did enjoy your videos though and they definitely add to the story of your trips 🙂

Thanks! I haven't really decided yet, and I suppose if people really enjoy them I would continue.

Yuletide greetings to you and yours! I look forwards to your blogs...there is a lot in them that resonates with me. I've been looking back over my images from 2024 too...the first year I captured an image of the Aurora that I'm proud of! Yay! See you on the other side! Have a great time.
