A Green Window

I have always wanted to see something green from my window. When I was a student I lived in an apartment on a very busy street and only thing I could see outside was asphalt and a long line of high houses. I have been more lucky with other places that I have lived in. I just love to see some trees every morning when I wake up. The natural view is so much more inspiring and calming to see. I can follow the birds, I can see the leaves moving and enjoy the changing Seasons. When I go for my walks, I love to take some pictures and many of them stay just in my private collection. The photo is a sort of window to me. I think the need to be surrounded with a living environment is so deep in us, that we need to go to the woods or have a walk at the park or just see the beautiful pictures. In the scale of the history of Human being, the time that we live now, this sort of "modern life", is so short. I think we can't ignore our biological and genetic history. We used to live totally in the woods and were not the first ones on the food chain. Just the invention how to use the fire gave us the more dominating position among other living species. With this I just want to say we have to stay in contact with the nature, it is crucial to our well being.

Even if you would forget it or even if you are too busy or the nature seems to be too far from where you live...just try to find that time and go out! Actually I am going to do that now and have this time no special plan where to go. I will just go and let my feet guide me this time! 

With this green attack:-)) I wish you a wonderful day!!

Short light treatment

Just in time outdoors and enjoying the short period of direct sunlight. Even if the wind was cold, the light of the spring winter and being able to stand for a while at the warm spot...made by SUN..was  wonderful. I was totally awake and ready to see if there was something new and promising to see at the park. 

Some small trees are getting their first leaves for this season. So fine and thin, like the finest silk paper. How can the nature recover so fast from the darkest time and maximise the situation now, when there finally is some yellow power in the air.

The trees beside the water are getting some extra reflections from the surface of the canals. Light from both directions: up and down. I was really admiring the abstract art by the water. The beauty of going for a walk, cycling or just being outdoors: the nature or the environment always surprises you somehow and it is never boring. The amount of the inspiration is huge. You can see different dimensions in one moment, if you just stop there and let your fantasy do the work. 

These reflections under the bridge were stunning. The atmosphere was special under this movement of light and at the same time seeing the nature on the left side. It felt like a space where you want to stay. The situation was not so peaceful, because the workers at the park were just cleaning the outside of this bridge with a high pressure spray of water. I just closed that noise out of my head and concentrated to capture the "fire" made by shadows on the ceiling. 

I was thinking about the summer. Maybe the spaces under some bridges could be sometimes used for a little floating summer terrace or a small outdoor cafe. With a good luck and right amount of sun, the drinks could be enjoyed under this theatre of reflections. Sounds good! 

Some more views from my walk. At the end it got more cloudy, but my energy storage was reloaded anyway. Enjoy your week!
