2025 a Year of Highs and Lows

2025 a year where my husband has had constant undiagnosed pain in his lower back. The DVT from my trip to Canada had me wearing compression stockings for 6 months.  A friend has been lost. Two friends have had to take the breast cancer road with dear Liz also requiring heart surgery. The world hasn't been a peaceful place. Through all this, nature and friendships have been spirit lifting. 

I am still quite time poor at present. Two big photobook projects need to be completed by April. I have hardly started. The rainbow caught my attention, as I sat down to sift through my photos to select one for each month. A quick decision was made to make this year's focus, the sky.

January - after the storm.


February - after Cyclone Alfred.

March - a bear with full moon eye.

April - a stunning sunrise.

May - a wonderful day spent with my brother, concluded with this tranquil sunset.

June - the joy of sunset on Prince Edward Island.

July - summer sky Prince Edward Island. The morning fog still trying to lift at midday.

August - a foggy, full moon setting at Girraween National Park.

September - the bliss of watching the sun rise on the family farm at Afterlee.

October - Lennox Heads sunset after a perfect day of walking, relaxing and watching the waves roll in.

November - a spectacular sunset after a massive thunderstorm.

December - the only month where there was only one choice. 
The 5.51 am sunrise on Christmas morning, was one of calm beauty. Thankfully the birds were not their usual raucus selves! A special dawn for a special day.

I have been wanting to share the following two pics for some time.  Not long after seeing the moose 
car washing, my Instagram friend in far western Queensland on a vast property, posted the pics of calves washing her dusty ute.

AUSSIE CAR WASH

As the sun sets on another year, I send peace, love and joy to you and your loved ones. Find time to soak up nature's amazing beauty.

I would love to read your comment.
