“Kissed by the sun” an excerpt from “Grains of Sand” – this photo was taken in Naxos, the largest island in the Cyclades.
Found freedom
I found freedom
In your love
And broke free
From the shackles
Of my loneliness
Death Valley flower in poetry
Time rolls on
Saturday micro-poetry on a sunny day

Slopes of Aiguille du Midi

Mt. Blanc Mountain Sheep
Came across a flock of sheep on the first day of the Tour du Mont Blanc, and this one let me get close enough to take a friendly photo.
The folds of your heart

This limestone quarry in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan used to be one of my favorite swimming spots as a kid, but it’s been closed down and mostly abandoned for the last few years.
