What’s inside the sun? A flower that forever spreads its seed across the universe? Or is the sun inside the flower? Energizing and empowering it to live, flourish, feed and be reborn in perpetuity? Both are one and the same.

The tunnels through which we all must pass often open to a new beautiful world.

Take time dear one, to walk in solitude. Stare at the great expanse. Be awe-struck power in nature much greater then but inclusive of you. Be at peace with change. Contemplate your inter-being with all that is. #robertjschoutphotography #sunset #oceans #follow #sharethis #portugal #vianadocastelo
Twilight. Light from the moon and nearby street lamps accentuates the sky, adobe walls and color in overhanging vines in a riad courtyard in Marrakesh. Natural perfection.

Raindrops are aerial acrobats. Each falls in free form, then clings and swings upside down from their shared trapeze. (Share your story of raindrops with me. What do you see?) #robertjschoutphotography #raindrops #naturephoto #poeticphotography
I invite poets to respond to this image from my #gardenmessengers photography collection. What do you see? What does it say?

When earth’s elements combine the man-made world becomes abstract and disappears into imagination. Water and light reflect and, with our gratitude, blur concrete commercial landscapes. #lasvegas #bellagiofountain #robertjschoutphotography #reflections

Gradually it emerges. What once appeared barren in reality harbored an abundance of life. The same is true for hearts and minds. Nature conveys truth for all who stop, look and listen.

Brandywine River Reflections
Everyone and every thing reflects something that is true of itself. Is it our authenticity?

Anticipation of Life
Every life strives to be. It yearns to stretch to the sun. Yearns to unfurl and see what it means to be alive.

Sunset Reflection
Take time to stop. Rest. Reflect for just a little while each day. Sit on a bench, a curb, on a step or anywhere. You, as much as anyone, deserves stillness and peace .
Location: Praia d’Ancora, Viana do Castelo, Portugal

Moonlight at Yellowstone NP.
Even in the darkest times our light still shines. What we choose to reflect matters . We can either reflect beauty or despair.

Street Celebration in Funchal.
A rainbow of colors dancing in the sun brings a smile to one’s heart as the mind calls out, “let’s dance.”

An image from my Piece of Heaven collection (floral images and garden messengers). For me, it is evocative of the interbeing of all things; one dependent upon the other.

A blanket wraps the world in mystery for a moment. Are we trusting of what we, as yet, cannot see clearly? Do we see beauty in black and white?
