Opening My Eyes





One way to open your eyes is to ask yourself, 
"What if I had never seen this before? 
What if I knew I would never see it again?"

    Your photos take me to a place I wish I could see with my own eyes.
    They draw me in and I would love to follow those pathways. I appreciate so much that you show me what it is like in your part of the world.
    Rachel Carson's words remind me to make the most of every day and the beauty which surrounds me here and now. Thanks GiGi.

    Hi Gigi,
    Oh Rachel Carson's words resonate in my 'take for granted' spot in my brain!To never see these scenes again...oh yes, it does heighten the senses to think with this sensibility.
    Thanks Gigi,

    Hello, my friend. I haven't been around the blog block in ages what with the end of the school year craziness. I wanted to stop by and tell you how much I've missed you two and this inspiring place you have created here. It's good to be back. I have missed you, your words, your friendship, and these amazing images.
