My Happy Place

My Happy Place

It’s not a beach in the Bahamas. It’s not the top of Mount Everest. It’s not a view of the beautiful land I call home.

It’s a small gravelled garden where I stood and felt happy with the world. It matters not to the general viewer the where or why, it just was!

It’s where I want to be, not for the garden, the walls or the door, but for how I felt at the time and the reason I felt that way, but the door beckons and will call me away to my responsibilities.

At times, I wish I could be more selfish!

    A truly absorbing image Tony – and a well written description. We all need one of these from time to time – I’m glad you have this one and that you cared to share it with us. Hugs, 30 S.

  • A90Six replied

    Thanks Sandra! Yes, we all need one to make us feel better about ourselves and drag us back from the doldrums.

    Tony, I have an absolute fascination with images of doors and windows. I’ve wondered if it has to do with the subliminal … the mystery of what’s on the other side. I have recurring dreams of undiscovered rooms in my house … and the doors that lead to them. This particular image conjures up a mixed bag of sensations … and I admit to a tiny bit of envy about that wonderfully happy moment in your life. Envy and admiration that you can pinpoint that moment so precisely … so definitely. So often those moments of pure joy are elusive and soon vanish completely. The ability to hang onto one of them so concretely is a rare blessing!!!! A mysterious and thought-provoking image!!!

  • A90Six replied

    Hey Lois, Always take your camera with you and never miss a thing!
                                            :) Tony.

    I wish that I could capture an emotive moment like that in my life photographically as you have done…......this is a wonderfully stirring image on its own; the narrative just personifies it. Beautiful work….............and welcome back!
