Story Water

FEATURED OCT 2009 THE WORLD AS WE SEE IT, OR AS WE MISSED IT

from Rumi’s Story Water

Beauty surrounds us,
but usually we need to be walking
in a garden to know it.

The body itself is a screen
to shield and partially reveal
the light that’s blazing
inside your presence.

Water,stories, the body,
all the things we do, are mediums
that hide and show what’s hidden.

Study them,
and enjoy this being washed
with a secret we sometimes know,
and then not.

(Coleman Barks translation)

The incredible beauty of Doubtful Sound, South island in New Zealand. Doubtful Sound is the second largest of the 14 fiords in Fiordland National Park.

Oh my Lord Rosie – how did I miss all of these? Did you do them in the past day or so? This is just incredibly beautiful – a place I would adore being, a place to reflect on the beauty of the world we live in. Simply one of the most inspiring shots you’ve ever done – and that is going some!
rodeorose replied

Hey Lianne- two went up in the last couple of days, and there are two more at least I feel deserve to sit with these, but I’m not wanting to overdo them all at once. I am so thrilled you enjoyed them so much. xx
