inspiration: looking for the quiet
Finding quiet spaces, places to reflect and let ideas unfold, giving one’s self the gift of that, may at times seem difficult, and at times, it is. It’s necessary though, both to look for that quiet and to accept it when it comes.
Sometimes, you find it by looking up.

This post came at a most opportune time- when I am NEEDING to find quiet! ha ha!! I loved the photo- and it just highlighted everything the post was saying...esp. the fact it was taken from a busy city- and yet it looks so nice and tranquil. GREAT Post!!
I love this photo. Beautiful and quite inspiring!
Agree with Anjuli--just looking at this makes me calm. Actually, I start every morning by looking at the blue Arizona sky and thanking the world for being there.
Mmmmm. Beautiful.
lovely concept, i feel calmer already. must be why my office is plastered with images from the natural world
I'm impressed that you said the photo was "made." A travel editor friend of mine recently told me she was informed by a travel photographer that this is the correct way to phrase that. I've always said or written "taken," as in, "the photograph was taken..." In fact, photos are made, just as you say here. I rarely see that being correct phrase being used. Now that I have, it does make sense. Not that this has much to do with your post, actually. It's just something I noticed as I spend some time here reading your blog.
Bike Lady,
actually, I think what you say does have do with my post quite well. thanks for sharing your thoughts.
