The answers were nearly always – light.
Light.
There.
The quick glow of a fierce sensation.

- Photo by DK @ Daybreak. 5:45 a.m. 60° F. September 17, 2022. Cove Island Park, Stamford, CT. See more photos from that morning here.
- Title & Inspiration: Aldous Huxley: “It’s dark because you are trying too hard. Lightly child, lightly. Learn to do everything lightly. Yes, feel lightly even though you’re feeling deeply. Just lightly let things happen and lightly cope with them.”
it never fails us
No. It does not.
Perfect
PS – will you please add this to my ever-growing list of photos I would love copies of?
Awwww, of course!
Have him put you on the list for a 2023 photo calendar or set of blank cards like I’ve ordered, Mimi. 😉💕
😄
I’m learning this of art, life and photography thanks to two capturers of said light I know. Thank you.
Thank you Lisa!
It’s all about the photons!!! 🙂
Yes! More Photons!
The lines in this photo brought one word to mind immediately – sweeping. Beautiful effect of the breeze on the water and the clouds. Possibly some tide moving the water? Good one, DK.
Thank you Anneli. Tide is very very active in this area. I think between wide and tide, you nailed it.
That’s the excuse the newbies use when they have trouble docking their fishboats. “It was the wind and the tide…. ”
But it looks like those factors were at play in your photo. A very nice one!
Fantastic Photo: Emergence Rising…
The Words: Unfolding exposure, brings forth illumination, lifting…
/// Please add me to the list of people wanting this and other signature photos of yours!
Thank you Christie.
Oooh what a break of day you captured! That light…we all crave it.
Yes! Thank you Valerie!
