New Year, New Chapter
My annual ritual- watching the New Year’s 1st sunrise. Sitting in the dark, waiting for the first rays of the sun to breach the horizon gives me a sense of renewal and hope. My own spiritual practice, not associate with any religions. Now, I also capture its image too. Here is January 1st, 2020 sunrise. Continue reading New Year, New Chapter
New Year, New Dawn
Happy New Year 2019 everyone As I have been doing since my childhood, on the first day of the year: I wake up early to watch the first sunrise. And, for the past few years, on the morning of January 1st, I also capture an image of the sunrise. No matter how pretty or moody the sky is, it’s worth getting up early to watch the new … Continue reading New Year, New Dawn

Autumn Leaves
Beauty From A Different Perspective Autumn usually makes me feel semi-depressed. Knowing that the growing season is coming to a close.

The whole perspective of everything coming to an end has never settled well with me. Until I came across a … Continue reading Autumn Leaves

The webs they create always fascinate … Continue reading Happy Halloween
Composting
Right In The Kitchen People start projects for various reasons. I know many people raise vermicomposting worms to be used as bait or to sell their casting, a technical term for worm poo, or just to compost. Why do I raise worms? Convenience and a little bit of laziness. We have a large compost bin at the corner of our property where we dump a lot … Continue reading Composting

Sunrise & Sunset
The New Year Breaks In the last couple of years I have made it a point to capture the January 1st sunrise and this year I managed to capture sunset as well. It’s nice to wake up to a new year dawn albeit a moody dawn this year. It was a little too cold to wait out in the garden so I went out every 30 … Continue reading Sunrise & Sunset
Happy Earth Day
Respecting Mother Earth This is the only home we have. Mother Earth gave life to us. She was here millions of years before we were. The Earth is kind enough to provide all that is necessary to allow us to exist, but if we keep destroying her, she may not be able to continue supporting us. She can create and she can destroy. The picture above was taken … Continue reading Happy Earth Day
