Just because I’m kind, does not mean I’m a fool.

That would be a misunderstanding.

Because it is raining heavily here in Marseille, there is a strong possibility that this morning’s sunrise will only be witnessed above the clouds…so I present to you this…

“In nature there are neither rewards nor punishments; there are consequences.”
- Robert Green Ingersoll.

A sunrise driven fire sky. Brilliant reds and shades of grey are the dominant clouds in the sky. Streetlights are randomly visible in the city of Marseille.

Shelter
The image shows several leafless trees on an open grassy area. One large tree stands in the foreground, with additional smaller trees positioned further in the background. The photo is in black and white. The sky appears uniformly bright and without visible structure. Das Bild zeigt mehrere laublose Bäume auf einer offenen Wiesenfläche. Ein großer Baum steht im Vordergrund, während weitere kleinere Bäume in der Tiefe des Bildes angeordnet sind. Die Aufnahme ist in Schwarzweiß gehalten. Der Himmel wirkt einheitlich hell und ohne sichtbare Struktur.

Spent last week in Sunderland visiting my Aunties who were too ill to be at Mum’s funeral.
We did plenty reminiscing & laughed a lot despite the sadness.
My ‘many’ cousins took me out,got me tipsy and we took long walks by the sea.
It did me the world of good.
Often, others know what’s best for you🤍
A low cloudy sky just before sunset reflecting on wet sand by the sea with small waves receding. On the horizon in the distance is Roker lighthouse.

For when you need to breathe...
The sun shines on a flowing river as there are some green shrubs in front of it.

I'm going through my back-catalog of aurora pics for my upcoming side quest website, and still in awe of some of the light shows we've gotten over the past two years during this solar maximum cycle.

This was from mid April in Iceland this year. #northernlights

Sunset tonight
December 1, 2025
The setting sun shines through high, thin clouds just above the distant trees. A dock juts into the frame from the lower left corner. The setting sun shines through high thin clouds, just above the distant trees. A dock juts into the frame from the right side. The setting sun disappears behind the distant trees. A single pine tree stands on the right side of the frame.

Autumn at Loch Awe, Scotland

Where quiet waters hold the sky,
And autumn leans in glowing light,
The hills breathe gold as moments pass,
A painted world of calm and light.

A calm lake reflecting autumn coloured trees in vivid shades of red, orange, and yellow. Rolling hills stretch into the background under a dramatic sky with dark clouds and patches of blue. Rocks are scattered in the clear water near the shore, adding texture to the serene landscape.

Sharing a favorite from our walk on Friday near Bdote, the sacred place of creation for the Dakota people.

Bdote sits at the confluence of the Mississippi & Minnesota rivers.

History on cultural significance in alt text.

#StunDay #EastCoastKin #Photography #Landscape #StateParks #MNStateParks
Photo: The late afternoon sun is reflected on a body of water. The sky is partly cloudy. A tree line is in the distant horizon, and native plants and brush are in the foreground. Historical background: This spot is located in what is called Fort Snelling State Park today. Long before Fort Snelling existed, the surrounding land was known as Bdote by the Dakota people, who are Indigenous to the region. Efforts to add “at Bdote” to Fort Snelling signage a few years ago were shut down by state legislators as “rewriting history,” despite the fact that Bdote is what the area was known as historically. Excerpt below from the Sacred Land Film Project’s “Bdote in Mni Sota” report, by Addie Wright: Minnesota, known as Mni Sota Makoce to the Dakota, is “the land where the waters reflect the skies.” The Dakota word Bdote means “where two waters come together,” representing the spiritual and physical place of creation for the Dakota people. Bdote is located at the confluence of the Mississippi and Minnesota Rivers (on the eastern edge of the Minneapolis–St. Paul airport, and south of the Twin Cities). This place of waters meeting is most often referred to as where the Dakota arrived in human form. Seven tribes of Dakota are said to have descended from the seven stars of Orion’s belt, arriving at the convergence of the Minnesota and Mississippi Rivers. Bdote presents a potent example of a spiritual landscape overlaid with history, where sites of profound cultural importance are born near well-established sacred natural sites. The river confluence was the place of creation. Ceremonies were conducted at a flourishing freshwater spring and on a nearby hilltop. The land was taken away by colonizers, followed by resistance and hangings, as deceit, murder and military action sparked a long battle for truth and reconciliation. Dakota elder Dave Larsen describes the Bdote as “where everything began and where everything began changing.”
