2016-12-29: WPC Path
The end of the year is a great time to reflect on the path that has been travelled over the year, and the ones that you hope to travel on in the coming year. 2016 has been an interesting, and really good year. The photos below encompass some of my thoughts about the various paths that I am on.
There are times when the path is clear; you know where you are going and the way is easily defined. If you have to retrace your steps for some reason, it’s easy to get back where you started.
On some days, the path might seem barren and you feel all alone, but you never know what might pop up ahead.
Sometimes others will doubt that you are on a path at all; they will question your direction and your vision. But you know exactly where you are going.
Sometimes you need to create your own path. You can’t see where you are headed, and if you try to turn around, the way is just as obscured. Going on intuition is the only way forward.
Sometimes the only thing to do is take a break, rest, and return to the path later on. This is especially true when you have no idea what you are doing, or where you are going!

2016-12-19: Monochrome Monday
Something a little different for today’s Monochrome Monday. During last week’s full moon, the moonrise happened while I was out on my afternoon walk with Spencer. I hadn’t planned on taking any photos, but it looked so lovely rising above a farm in my neighbourhood, I had to try to capture a few quick shots. It was also -28C and standing still for any length of time was not going to happen (neither was spending much time without my mittens on!)
Handheld with a fairly slow shutter speed, I managed to get a clear shot, but it was so dark and noisy, it wasn’t going to work as a traditional landscape shot. So I played around instead, and came up with this interpretation. It’s very dark and moody, but I liked it and thought I would share.
Have a great week everyone!
2016-12-15: WPC New Horizon
For the coming year, I plan to continue to challenge myself to explore new places, walk my own path, and plan adventures to the places that call to me.
That’s what I did in 2016, and it has been a fabulous year.

2016-11-25: Feel Good Friday
These are the pictures that jumped out at me to post today; I’m not sure why, but I decided to run with it. 🙂
These are from my time in Damaraland, Namibia. We had the opportunity to explore the Twyfelfontein World Heritage Site to see the bushman rock art. The rock art depicts people, the animals and birds of the region, and even the location of both permanent and seasonal waterholes.
If you’d like to learn more about the area, here is a link to a wiki page about it.
2016-11-20: What I've seen this week
It’s seems like such a long time since I have done one of these posts! I was planning to do one last week, but woke up Sunday morning to a computer meltdown instead – not quite how I was planning to spend my day.
I’ve got a bit of a mixed bag from the last two weeks… Fingers crossed I can get back into the routine of weekly photos again 🙂
Have a great week everyone!
