Swallow In Flight

I watched them get bolder and stronger, until the day it was time to start the long journey South. It’s always with a little pang in the heart, when they leave and with them their joyful ways, knowing all the dangers and challenges they will meet. I wish them well and despite my love for autumn and winter, I can’t wait to hear their excited little chirps when they return again next year. As long as the swallows returns, something is still right in the world.

“That’s How The Light Gets In”

“There is a crack, a crack in everything
That’s how the light gets in.”
Leonard Cohen

I Stand

I Stand

I stand
My face towards the sun
A smile emerging
I step
I am
I stand
Anew

The Presence of a Cat

Early frosty mornings, coffee made, fire lit, and I’m watching Her Ladyship watching the fire.

Letting Go

There is simplicity to be revealed in letting go. There is breath. There is listening. There is allowing. There is the currents of life carrying you to what is not yet known. There is a met in the simplicity of being. There is rest. There is trembling. There is fear. There is grief. There is darkness. There is light.

And there is free.

Feelings For Horses #2

The one that left a little beautiful piece of himself in my heart that day was this bay boy with the calmest soul-reaching eyes. Time evaporated standing with him, feeling his gentle breath on my cheek, soaking up the most wonderful scent of being at home in the world, and feeling him choosing to stay with me, quietly being, quietly seeing, quietly knowing.

Winter Tales From Behind The Lens

My new work had its first exposure to the public this past weekend at the Christmas Market in the Courthouse Gallery, Ennistymon. The reception was very moving. The encouraging words, the lovely conversations moving in many directions and the purchases people have made, watching not only my newest framed work but also older pieces and eco-friendly cards/small images to frame finding their way to people’s heart and into their homes. It is truly a blessing after many months of work and before that years of dreaming and planning gathering momentum and leading up to the moment where I had enough courage to take the leap (and growing my wings as I fall) into giving my photography art my full time and attention, no longer just a sidenote. A meaningful sidenote it was, nevertheless still just a sidenote.
