Through other eyes
Come with me on a journey without destination through my time and my space.
“Yet I also appreciate that we cannot win this battle to save species and environments without forging an emotional bond between ourselves and nature as well—for we will not fight to save what we do not love, but only appreciate in some abstract sense… We really must make room for nature in our hearts” – Stephen Jay Gould

Come with me on a journey without destination through my time and my space.

A collection of past and present images from my camera sensor to you (I’m still working on the future).

One image a day of whatever passes before my eyes and my lens.
“Humanity today is like a waking dreamer, caught between the fantasies of sleep and the chaos of the real world. The mind seeks but cannot find the precise place and hour. We have created a Star Wars civilization, with Stone Age emotions, medieval institutions, and godlike technology. We thrash about. We are terribly confused by the mere fact of our existence, and a danger to ourselves and to the rest of life” – Edward O. Wilson

Stepping out of one comfort zone is hard, but stepping out of two both on the same morning is really challenging. But it somehow worked in capturing the less romantic side of my nearby village. And I can’t wait to have another go.

With the mountains still firmly in the grip of winter, every year I eagerly await the blossoming of the almond trees on the stony plateau near my home. A fragrant demonstration of resilience and vitality bringing with it a breath of Spring.

Today is the first of March. I’m not sorry to leave February behind for another year, but even in the midst of winter, nature manages to surprise and amaze, with the first flowers and a smattering of courageous arthropods to delight my spirit and my eyes.
“A maverick may go his own way but he doesn’t think that it’s the only way or ever claim that it’s the best one, except maybe for himself. And don’t imagine that this raggle-taggle gypsy is claiming to be free. It’s just that some of the necessities to which I am a slave are different from yours”, Orson Welles
