This week, share a photo that represents focus to you. Are you a stickler for getting in close to your subjects and capturing every detail, or do you prefer a more ethereal look that illustrates the sensations of the moment? Or both?

I choose to share a completely unedited, in focus photo, for this week’s photo challenge. Yesterday my daughter and I went to Whiskeytown Lake, part of a 39,000 acres national park in northern California. It’s a magical place! We’ve enjoyed coming back here for years, to hike the trails, and enjoy the lake.

Yesterday I wanted to capture the mix of pleasure, and concentration on my daughter’s face, as she walked on some uneven rocks at the shore. I followed her explorations with my camera, and snapped a couple pictures. I like this one the best. Show me your focus! If you’re participating in the photo challenge, feel free to leave a link to your entry in a comment.

 

Love,

Ms Zen

It’s all about experiences, and the healing power of nature. Life is about choosing happiness. I entered the magic world of photography when I was five years old. My gypsy soul have taken me to many different countries, and definitely taught me to be more humble. I believe that you are what you eat, body and soul. I enjoy growing my own food, and spending time outdoors. Above everything else is my daughter. A Sagittarius loves to travel, have an open mind and, and a philosophical view. It motivates them to wander around the world in search of the meaning of life. Sagittarius is extrovert, optimistic and enthusiastic, and likes changes. A lot of that perfectly describes me. The fact that my ancestors, on both parents sides, were vikings, doesn’t exactly lessen my desire to explore. Maybe a slightly more mindful exploring, compared to the average viking. My blog, and my art prints is a results of my (inner and outer) explorations. Love, Maria

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. #robertfrost #tworoads #theroadlesstraveled #pineforest #sweden #dalarna #nature

So very excited about the new book that came in the mail today!! #attainablesustainable #selfsufficiency #homesteading
Yesterday morning I glanced at the kitchen table just before leaving the house, and noticed this letter to the Easter Bunny. When my daughter left the room to put her shoes on I quickly wrote an answer at the bottom, using my left hand so that she wouldn't recognice my handwriting. Guess if she was thrilled by the end of the day when she noticed that the Easter Bunny had replied! She talked about it all evening 💗 #lettertotheeasterbunny #easter #easterbunny #easteregghunt #almosteaster
We woke up to a #white #beautiful world today 💗 #winterwonderland #april #sweden #snow
I meant to share these photos this morning. It was such a beautiful morning. I took these photos with my phone while I was walking around the house pulling the curtains away from the windows. There's so much to be #grateful for. #sunrise #gratitude #nature #mymorningview #deer #wildlife
Thank YOU!
