That looks so peaceful and inviting. I speak as the chainsaws and woodchipper fire up for the next stage of the work here and we await the return of the scaffolders and roofers later in the day.

Thinking that walking and capturing the the stone and water views are offering you some peace and tranquility after the stirring of feelings brought on by the studio clearing. x

Both sets of your photos in the last two posts are redolent with the all enduring properties of the natural world. They suggest calm; smooth repetition and the sense of much time passing, and give us a feeling that we are just fleeting by comparison. And that that doesn’t matter either. Wonderful choices.
I think this is very much reflecting the Tao idea of non-doing. You are being contemplative, which is different from contemplating; you are not doing, you are being. Perhaps we go too little outside our everyday lives; we are all so caught up with the business of living, justifying, achieving and acquiring. Maybe we should try just existing for a change?
Enjoy just drawing a breath.

I;m lucky to have the chance to be in nature on a daily basis - but even so I realised I had not been down to the shore for ages! Contemplative is the word for these last few days.

Beautifully serene Freda... hope you were feeling the same way :-)
Particularly love the picture towards the top with the three breakwaters (am assuming that's what they are) - lovely composition. And I can almost smell the shore! I miss the sea...

It was a very still and serene morning and some of it does rub off on you when you walk in such beauty.
