Fancy boat!
Let’s jump in and sail together the Mediterranean.
Let’s!
I’m envious at how well you manage to photograph water. There was so much water when I was in Wales, and I kept trying to capture it, but it never looked right. In the end, I changed to the movie setting on my camera and made small films about all the waterfalls and lakes. But I can’t put those on my wall…
I would love to see them. Are you sure you can not post them here? I’ve watched other videos on WP.
It might be possible. I’ll work on getting over my technical phobias and look into it 😉
Oh Siddharta that pearl of a book…
I agree, and I have just been re-reading Goldmund and Narcissus and am reminded all over again how talented Herman Hesse truly was.
So who are you?
Narzis or Goldmund? 😉
The jury is out on that Julien….. let me finish the book, then I will let you know.
For the record:
Maybe Hesse is reminding you of your own talent 🙂
Thank you. That is one of the nicest compliments I’ve received. Truly.
Oh well, I take no credit for that.
Hermann asked me to tell you this 🙂 😉
Feeling the water alive…thrilling presence enlightenment, or experience of god in the moment, worship of water…
connecting to the Life in all things, water, like Sid did.
“Siddhartha stopped fighting his fate this very hour, and he stopped suffering.”
― Hermann Hesse
Now, let me try it….
