Stolen Moments

Stolen moments
When there is Beauty
Right in front
Yet
All we can think of
Is otherwise.

New to Newcastle – The Beach

Someone once told me that all the beaches in Australia look the same in one way or other, but I disagree. Each beach I’ve seen here has its own unique characteristics and vibes. And in such comfortable early spring weather, who could say no to the fresh outdoor air, sea waves and blue skies?

 

I’ve Scene You Around

When the temperatures were friendlier.

Well actually they still are. Been having chilly mornings with increasing sense of Spring in the afternoons. People are still throwing on layers and wearing scarves on the streets.
May it stay this way for a long while more!

Sunset at Penrith

I realise I have lots of sunrise pictures, but rare are those with sunsets…

That’s because I’m always back home, safe and sound inside my cosy room, before the sky gets dark. Coming back this late is a treat I partake in only when I have company.

Smudgy Clouds

Interesting weather, interesting clouds.

Yesterday’s looked like someone splashed paint across a blue canvas, then used their giant thumb to make smudges over the white…

Beauty Before The Storm

Morning Walk

A last minute cancellation of plans suddenly left my day quite free. Since Dad was free, we went down for a walk along the waterway. Just us and the peaceful, tranquil early morning.

Lunch Outdoors

Maybe the period between winter and spring  should be called… Springter.

And it will be known as the perfect season.

When the sun is shining but it’s not too warm, when the wind is blowing but it’s not too cold, when the clouds appear leisurely and you can decide to pack your lunch, sit outside your house and enjoy your meal watching the sky go by.

On A Sunny Winter Day

My favorite kind of winter – the sunny kind 🙂

If Only We Knew

If only we knew how fleeting our lives are

We might live

Uttering less hurtful words,

Feeling less anger,

Thinking less negative thoughts.

We might give more love,

Extend more helping hands,

Act with more discrimination.

If only we knew.
