I enjoy taking photos, even though I mostly never have a good camera with me and so I need to capture moments on my Samsung. I enjoy capturing these moments forever in time.

These are all fantastic photos. Each one tells a different story and carries a different feeling. It’s the person behind the camera that captures the moment – a piece of you gets translated into the capture. I am with you on capturing photos and looking back at them to remind me of how I felt. There are so many things that call our attention these days, and having a photo to focus and re-center ourselves, we get to relive moments and put things into perspective.
Where was 26. All of the feels? It reminds me of feeling so many different feelings at once, so overwhelmed with all kinds of emotion and no idea how to react π
I can’t pick a favourite out these twenty seven summer photos. I do like them all. The sunset ones are spectacular. I love the full moon rising over the eucalypts. The Moon is always up in the sky but not everyday the weather is clear enough to see a full moon rising at sunset. Great photos all round.

Hi dear Mabel it’s so nice you stopped by to look at these I love hearing from you! Yes each one is a moment from my life that I treasure. It sounds like you are doing the same capturing these moments and then reflecting on what they meant afterwards…pure magic! You’re right about the many things calling our attention, mostly it’s online and mostly it’s negative shallow BS. I find nature or animals tends to bring me out of all that and realise there is a world that’s alive and conscious outside of the human world π. This is very soothing to me. The ‘All the Feels’ shot is from Monash University Clayton campus in Melbourne, near to the student quad/open space. I think it’s a piece of art but it really captures my imagination. Take care, Athena AKA CC
