“You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment." -Henry David Thoreau.

Rockland Harbor, Maine, 10/29/26.

Good morning, Monday!
Thoughts for today... It's a new month, a new week, and there's a new opportunity every single day to start fresh. Leave yesterday behind you. It's over, can't be changed, and it's not worth putting your energy into it. Let it go. Tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. You can plan for it, but don't anticipate what will or won't materialize. S**t happens, and if you live in it, that opens you up to anxiety. If you depend on it, you leave yourself open to disappointment. Live in this moment. It's the only one you have. May you find peace in it...
Make your day great!

“And suddenly you know: It's time to start something new and trust the magic of beginnings.” -Meister Eckhart.

Breakwater Lighthouse, Rockland Harbor, Maine, 10/29/26.

Good morning, Sunday! One of my first followers, the late Dave Johnson, would post "rabbit-rabbit" on the first of every month. I miss seeing his posts. He became a dear friend, and he lives on in my heart.
The term has British roots, and people believed saying it on the first brought good luck for the month. In ancient Celtic culture, rabbits and hares were viewed as highly sacred, supernatural beings rather than ordinary wildlife. Gilda Radner preferred saying "bunny bunny" for peace and love.
So, rabbit-rabbit and bunny-bunny to us all and to the world, especially this month. Peace and love to all. "Hare-hare"!!!
Make your month great!

Side note: I can see the distinct upturned tails of Long-tailed ducks in the pictures from Thursday morning. They were out at the mouth of the harbor.

Happy Halloween, everyone!

Happy Halloween!!!

My favorite decorated house in Camden, Maine! Wait until the end to see the cheerleaders. Because my Mom was a "Big Blue" cheerleader, I appreciate their colors a bit more...

"You are the sky. Everything else - it's just the weather." -Pema Chödrön.

F/V Atlantic Reaper and F/V Reaper of the Sea, Rockland Harbor, Maine, 10/29/26.

Good morning, Saturday! The more I ignore the current insanity in the world, the happier I feel. It's not that I'm not aware of what's happening. I just avoid the constant bombardment of things meant to divide us, keep us distracted, and trigger our fight-or-flight response. It's not that things don't make me angry. Some of them completely p**s me off. But if I let those external things affect me, they've won. I'm over it!
So I'm doing the things that make me happy and help me find some sense of inner peace. This doesn't mean I can completely ignore what's going on (impossible), the never-ending to-do list, or "adulting" in general. It's not a new concept. Publilius Syrus (a 1st-century BCE Roman writer) wrote: "In nil sapiendo vita iucundissima est". Translated: "In knowing nothing, life is most delightful". Well, I'm not for knowing nothing, but I'm all for not letting it get to you.
What am I doing about it? I go out into nature and watch the sunrise and/or look for wildlife. I take pictures and share them, hoping I've made someone else's day better. I hope to be the light in the darkness. Whatever this may be for you, I hope you'll embrace it. Sending love and light to you all...know you're not alone.
Make your day great!

“A man is a success if he gets up in the morning and gets to bed at night, and in between, he does what he wants to do.” -Bob Dylan.

F/V Pontus, Tenants Harbor, Maine, 10/28/26.

Good morning, Friday! It was clear Wednesday morning. The upper cloud cover forecasted to arrive in Tenants Harbor before sunrise didn't show up for another hour. The clear sky looked like an intense shade of liquid gold. I always think about the amazing views the men and women who go fishing get on some days during their commutes. I also don't forget that on other days, it's not so pretty, and yet, still they go...
Make your day great!

"Great photography is about depth of feeling, not depth of field." -Peter Adams. (Australian photographer and photography historian)

Bald Eagle couple, Port Clyde, America (Maine), 10/28/26.

Good morning, Thursday! After watching the sunrise in Tenants Harbor, I rode to Port Clyde. As I was photographing the waterfront, I heard them calling to each other behind me. I couldn't see them. I changed into my long lens and moved closer to the harbor. They were too far away for an extremely detailed picture, but spending time watching this couple was too magical not to share.
Make your day great!

This morning's random thoughts about not having the perfect picture of the time spent watching them...
We all choose whether to live in a happy state or not. That doesn't mean we don't have some hugely less-than-wonderful things to deal with. Even then and always, life is full of small, wonderful moments we might not always be able to save (remember), capture (hold onto), or share (express). Those moments never disappear from our life experience. They're meant to live within us, to carry us through darker hours. We all face moments of struggle, doubt, and adversity. Those aforementioned special moments are the life ring we carry aboard to hold onto when we need it. Hold on tight to them when you need to. Know you are loved...

Good afternoon, Wednesday! I did make it out this morning and couldn't resist the moon. Bella Luna!
