From the balcony

January 22, 2021 in journal

This image is a perfect example of what I talked about in "Images only you can make".

I made it from the balcony, on a beautifully white morning. This scene would have never worked if it wasn't for the snow: there's water, aquatic plants, cement, grass and so many other elements - too busy. But this morning, all of that had been erased by the snow.

There it stood the pier, alone. Something belonging to a very different, remote time. Almost out of place.

You don't have to go to faraway lands to find beauty. Just don't forget to look for it.
