The sky broke like an egg into full sunset and the water caught fire.

Faerie Paths — Ocean
Blue, green, grey, white, or black; smooth, ruffled, or mountainous; that ocean is not silent. ~H. P. Lovecraft
Faerie Paths — Beauty
I believe the world is incomprehensibly beautiful — an endless prospect of magic and wonder. –Ansel Adams
Sunday Evening Art Gallery Blog — Water Drops
In one drop of water are found all the secrets of all the oceans;
in one aspect of You are found all the aspects of existence.
The timeless in you is aware of life’s timelessness. And knows that yesterday is but today’s memory and tomorrow is today’s dream.
Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror.
But you are eternity and you are the mirror.
No man can reveal to you aught but that which already lies half asleep in the dawning of your knowledge.
Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror.
But you are eternity and you are the mirror.
In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.
For that which is boundless in you abides in the mansion of the sky, whose door is the morning mist, and whose windows are the songs and the silences of night.
And if you would know God, be not therefore a solver of riddles.
Rather look about you and you shall see Him playing with your children.
And look into space; you shall see Him walking in the cloud, outstretching His arms in the lightning and descending in rain.
You shall see Him smiling in flowers, then rising and waving His hands in trees.
Kahlil Gibran

Sunday Evening Art Gallery Blog — Clark Little
Water. So soothing. So refreshing. So tumultuous. A friend one day, an adversary the next. Yet it makes up 70% of our bodies.
I have seen hundreds of beautiful images of water. Waterfalls, lakes, oceans. One is as breathtaking as the next. But when I came across Clark Little’s take of water, I found a new inspiration from it.
Clark not only takes pictures of water, of waves, but takes them from an angle only surfers can see. And in his creativity, he captures not only the force of water but the peace that lies just beyond.
Whenever I see pictures like this, I imagine a story to go with it. But then again, any extraordinary image can have a story to go with it. I love pictures that make me ask, “How do they do that?”
Alas, like the magician and their tricks, if you knew how it was done, a bit of the sparkle goes with it. I would rather look at something in awe and keep the childlike wonder of how it works.
You can find more of Clark’s wonderful photography at http://www.clarklittlephotography.com/. And go ahead — take your time — wander through the waves. A whole new world exists just on the other side of it.
