The WP Daily Post Photo Challenge of this week is Peek.
When peeking at someone or something, it is enchanting to notice them peeking back.
A connection is made.
A momentary relationship.
A brief encounter that touches the heart.
And now, as I peek at your heart, there you are peeking at mine.
Blessed Be.

Hi Mary!! I got so happy when I saw your name in my email 😁 The captures are so beautiful…and remind me that I am not spending enough time in nature! Yes…life has been hectic and it is sad that my connection with nature has been put on a back burner.
I hope you are well and that light is shining on you 💜💜

Sweet moments. I had these peeking moments with some blue tailed skinks in my back yard and deck over the summer. They did not run away quickly, but just studied me studying them for up to a minute if I didn’t get to close.

I wonder what they think and I suspect there is much to learn. Nature can feel that it is all about survival, I’d rather think about it as co-existence. Peace, Harlon
