derrickjknight – UK – I am an octogenarian enjoying rambling physically and photographing what I see, and rambling in my head as memories are triggered. I also ramble through a lifetime's photographs. In these later years much rambling is done in a car.

Like Hopkins, you caught (for me this morning) “morning’s minion. . . ” – – well, one of them, out of the many millions.

I’m a little surprised by the sharp angle in the wings. Once again, the camera sees something my eyes can’t — or haven’t.

Ilona Elliott – Pacific Northwest – I'm a writer/artist/gardener living in the Pacific Northwest, cultivating various plants but mostly daydreams. I'm passionate about the environment, (oh yes, a tree hugger), art, music, travel, human and mother nature, so that is what I write. I live with my husband of 42 years, who is funny and smart and puts up with me, and my rescue dog Cosmo, who is funny and smart and loves me unconditionally. I've spent all of my life working to express myself through the visual arts, and now, through writing. My work is generally creative non-fiction in the form of essays, poems and memoir. Sometimes I rant. Sometimes I'm reflective. My desire is to be my genuine self, to write from my heart, and, hopefully, to make people think hard or laugh right out loud. I love it when that happens.

2ndhalfolife – In the second (or really third?) half of my life now. Moving into the more crone stage: out of my head, into my soul. I am revisiting this blog after many years, many life changes and challenges and finding myself surrounding by joy and resilience. Join me for the transformation and transition.
