Feeling nostalgic already
The photograph you see below I took last year in August, the morning of my boyfriend’s birthday. We drove for quite a few hours to stay in a yurt (first for both of us) near this beautiful beach in Grayland, WA, on the Olympic Peninsula. We woke up very early to catch a glimpse of the sunrise lighting up the waves of the Pacific Ocean crashing on the shore. Instead of the warm orange and yellow rays we rose to a completely overcast sky and a mist as we walked through the coastal forest on our way to the beach. I would be lying if I said we weren’t disappointed, that is until we reached the water and the fog covering the entire shoreline. With it came flocks of seaguls, soon after our solitude was stolen by a friendly encounter with a young lady walking her dog, after she left we smiled at a lonely bicyclist followed by a couple riding their horses. This gray Grayland morning became a photographer’s paradise for the few hours that we got to spend there before breakfast. There are plenty of photos of sunrises and sunsets beautifying the ocean vistas but I think this little number below takes the cake, at least for me, only if for the memories. I hope you enjoy it.

Old Absintherie
I really like this photo. I took it last December while wandering the streets of Prague. We stumbled on this old Absintherie in one of Stare Mesto’s narrow, windy streets. As the place appeared as old as the famous liquor itself, I imagined the days when famous writers, poets, artists and philosophers would frequent this little bar. I pictured Rimbauld or Hemingway sitting in a well worn chair, a caraffe of water, a glass of absinthe and a lit sugar cube as they shared their incredible stories or wrote in their notebooks. Just a thought.

Polish Winters
I took this photo when we were visiting my family for the holidays this last December. It was one of those cold winter days when big snow flakes fall from the sky and the sun setts at 3pm. The forest as well as surrounding towns and villages used to be owned by an affluent Zamoyski family. One of their many beautiful palace residences is still located in these woods. I remembered it from childhood as my dad used to own beehives and thousands of honey bees he cared for not far from the palace. It’s one of those places in my memory that I long for as an adult. There was a big cherry tree with the sweetest fruit I’ve ever tasted and a beautiful clover field with little yellow flowers that gave the honey it’s floral fragrance. The beehives were lined in front of my favorite hazelnut trees. It’s a good thing I’m not allergic to bees because I could not resist these delicious fresh nuts and braved the stingers each time I visited. It’s no wonder that I wanted to share this place with my American boyfriend and convinced him to walk with me looking for the palace. As it turned out I grossly underestimated the distance and after 2 hours of walking and not finding our destination we decided to head back. It was a long walk yes, and the wind was blowing through the fields on our little country road such that exactly half of our bodies were covered with white powder. We did not see the palace and we got a bit cold but in the end we have this memory and some beautiful photos to show for it.
