the point up close.

in PR for the weekend. family weddings. lots of people. now everyone's left, and i'm here with my solitude tonight. took the camera down to the point- time to look closer at this place in front of me.

beautiful long evening and low light.

afternoon apartment

recently on my days off i've been particularly interested in listening to new music and looking closely at my surroundings. especially green tea and afternoon shadows. the lengthening day means the light spills in to my apartment at the perfect time in the afternoon and i lap it up. the space looks different, more awake but also more mysterious.

long winter shadows...

in the depths of winter now.... i can see the light coming. the days are getting longer. already into february, and my self reflection and photo sharing has gone by the wayside. the balance between work and life is a hard one to strike, but at least i can try to get some more posts up here. that's the intention. here's to photos and beauty and love and sharing.

a room of one's own...

settling in to a new space with new light, new floors, new smells, new feels.

it's good.

there's room for quiet, or cooking, or stretching, or sleeping, or eating, or...

it's feeling very good.

back in this city...

getting reoriented to this place. this home. this skyline. it's feeling good to breathe the coastal air. thoughts on what is next are constantly rolling through my head... trying to give myself some breathing room, change the nagging voice to an inspired voice... it's possible.

moving back in to the particulars of asana practice, guided by the details of my teacher's words... there's a sense of looking inwards, reaching upwards, while simultaneously staying close ...

took some photos on a short walk through the neighbourhood, marvelling in this special spring evening light...

dark nights.

the longest night of the year arrives tomorrow. these short days, long nights. so much darkness. so much going in. haven't been able to fully experience it. the daily grind of this and that distracts from the moment- from the quietness of the night- the warmth of the fire. more intention to be in this dark time, with more awareness and gratitude for the darkness surrounding and the light that's coming...

golden again.

fall leaves, fall trees, trees' leaves' falling in the breeze.

this autumn light and autumn air, there's something about this time of year.
