The weekend is supposed to be quiet, no work to be done and no hassles. While everyone agrees with that, not all weekends follow this excellent rule.
My weekends lately didn’t even hear of it and followed their own rules. Except this one. At last a weekend filled with family life and relaxation. Here are some impressions of the weekend.
Or so it is said. If it’s not the for end of the world, at least this is true for this year’s summer. Signs show that the summer is on its way out and preparing to leave us with colourful leaves and fresh nights.
Insects that were hardly photographable until now, slow down and show us their beauty. Birds gather together, not for warmth, but in preparation of a long trek. So where does that leave us, poor photographers in search of beauty to capture?
Summer has its undisputable winning creatures. When I was in the tropics a few years ago, I was happy to have a single silhouette of a hummingbird in one of my pictures.
Never would I have thought to get so close to them, way out of the tropics as well. Hummingbirds are fairly rare in Europe, but not here. Here, they are the kings or queens of summer.
Yeah, it happens. Today I wanted to go to St Leon’s Wind Farm in Manitoba. Shortly after arriving on the scene, my gas light comes on, telling me that I have only a few miles more to live.
So, I tried the gas station in St Leon. Closed. My GPS tells me the nearest gas station is 10 miles away. On my way there, the ads on the side of the road tell me that here is the place where they create free energy. That helps 
. A long story short…
Many places in nature are called magical. Some places are even called religious. However, it is often pretty difficult to sense the spirit of the places in question.
After two years, I decided to return to Bannock point and try to feel some more of the spirituality of the place.
