“It’s a new dawn … (and I’m feeling good)”
In an effort to improve mobility in my arthritic knee, I’m seeing a physiotherapist who has given me a new exercise programme. Since the best place to add something to my day is the beginning, I’m getting up earlier.
Beautiful morning skies are an added bonus.
The post title comes from the song “Feeling Good” by Anthony Newley and Leslie Bricusse, made famous by the fabulous Nina Simone.
Sometimes the journey is the best part

“The journey not the arrival matters”
– T.S. Eliot
Eliot’s words are particularly true when the journey is made in good company. This shot was taken last year when the boy-child and I were on a road-trip to visit family in Whanganui. A-typically for a teenager (but typical of the photographer that he is), he insisted on an extremely early start so that we could experience sunrise on the Desert Road.

Sunrise, sunset: quiet moments of reflection
Today both sunrise and sunset delivered moments of gorgeous light to my garden. Shame the hours in between were so grey.
