Wild Horses

Just returned from a trip to the Outer Banks in NC. First time visiting Coastal NC. One of the highlights was an evening with the wild horses.....

Kadampa Meditation Center

"The whole secret of existence is to have no fear. Never fear what will become of you, depend on no one. Only the moment you reject all help are you freed."

Recently visited the Kadampa Meditation Center in Glen Spey, NY. With a stream, a few hiking paths and benches tucked away throughout, it made for a quiet and reflective afternoon.

                                                                             

The Elusive Bobcat

Another one from the Turtle Back Zoo.....Bobcats are beautiful, but this one was a challenge to photograph. Constantly moving and pacing, he hardly stopped for more than a few seconds. I decided to plant myself and wait this guy out. After about 10 minutes of watching him duck and weave behind logs and brush, he finally stopped behind this tree and groomed himself for a brief moment, then looked up at me. I quickly focused on him and fired off about 5 or 6 shots.
