Off the Beaten Track?
Did you ever have one of those days, you know, when you wake up inthe morning and you know, you just know its going to be a beautiful day?
Mom and I headed out to Avon Valley Country Park. Its a wild life haven I have been visiting and capturing since I moved here 3 Summers ago.
Somewhere I had got to know really well, or so I thought!
Familiar avenues, familiar old trees that have come to feel like old friends you know so well.
Beautiful sky's that take your breath away?
Vistas that explode with colour.
And water, water you just have to love.
Some spots were created for the photographer.
I could set up camp here and just shoot this view for the rest of my life.
Then just when you think you found your place your comfort zone.
It all changes!
Just a little something, in this case a small bridge across a deep ditch, through the trees and ...................................................?
A whole new world opens up a new perspective on the world you were so comfortable with so familiar you took it totally for granted.
A new angle to look at what you had always known but just could not see.
New vistas new opportunities to experience the beauty of our world from a new point.
and
Finally the thing I love about the natural world the best things come in the smallet packages.
Actually its funny, If you think about it. It is funny how nature mirrors life, you think you know something so well, you take it for granted, then when you step back you find it was not what you thought it was!
A sobering experience!
Have a wonderful day and may your God go with you;)
