Bliss

Some moments stay with you

It could be because of who you were with, the emotion that a view triggers in you or a number of other reasons. 

This was one of those moments. 

Shared with a very special soul. 

Lake Hume Sunrise

 

I normally wouldn't recommend venturing out in the dark when the temperature is below zero, but if it means you can witness the world awakening, it is worth it.

It was so still as the light changed that you could hear the ripples of the water as it went on its journey. Rich golds, mauve and pinks painted the sky and I was left speechless. 

It is a time that stays firmly fixed in my memories for all the right reasons.

Do you have certain scenes or moments that stay in your memory?

welcome!

Join me while I share some of the beautiful and varied location I have spent quality time at.

Most will be from locations around this ancient land I am privileged to live on. 

Some cover other lands, both wild and cultured. 

Along the way, I will be sharing some of my textile projects and experiments, my sourdough baking episodes and other goodies as the urge takes me.
