Junior Youth Retreat, part 3, My Personal Nature Hike
During my church's junior youth retreat this past weekend, I managed to find twenty five minutes to go on a short nature hike by myself. I was amazed with the serenity of nature during that short walk. I will let the pictures speak for themselves. They are presented in the order experienced.
Great photos - especially the one with the shaft of light down through the trees. The newts (?) were good as well. This type setting and quietness can really recharge batteries - physical, emotional or spiritual. ec
Yes, I aggree with mreddie; the one I prefer is showing this "shaft of light". You're alone maybe when walking, so you've time and opportunity to catch beautiful views, nobody to tell you: oh ! tim, come on ! Beautiful macaon too.
I just went on a nature hike without leaving my computer! Those were excellent pictures! I can't wait for my work day to end now. Only nine more hours to go.
That shaft of sun IS the favorite, of course, but I also love any path in the woods, so that first one speaks to me as well. And of course, what a great butterfly pic. We love seeing nature through your eyes, Tim. I can just imagine what the inside core of your soul looks like!
My main blog: Ramblings generally focuses on telling a story via photography and words. These stories generally center around family, nature, and church although sometimes just about life in general. I also have a blog entitled Fingerprints. I post less frequently in Fingerprints. It serves as a catch all of anything that does not go in my Ramblings blog including memes, quizzes, and reports on books and movies.
The road awaits
Time doesn't
The road beckons
Time steps forward
Will we move
In step with time?
Will we step forward
Shaping our time?
Will we take time
To see the present?
Will we explore the past
And understand our heritage?
Will we laugh?
Will we wonder?
Will we touch?
Will we feel?
Time flies on
We have choices
Shall we go fast?
Shall we go slow?
We shall go forward
But we will choose the pace
We may dance with all our heart
Or bathe ourselves in a setting sun
