International Day Of Peace

Taken with my new/old Olympus C-8080

With such beauty all around us

why do we have to indulge in war?

May we reflect and act upon darkness and light
and act today, no matter how small or big,
for peace
love and 
light. 

Happy Equinox
May Peace Fill Our Hearts 

Autumnal Equinox

"Although the word equinox is often understood to mean "equal [day and] night," this is not strictly true. For most locations on earth, there are two distinct identifiable days per year when the length of day and night are closest to being equal; those days are referred to as the "equiluxes" to distinguish them from the equinoxes. Equinoxes are points in time, but equiluxes are days. By convention, equiluxes are the days where sunrise and sunset are closest to being exactly 12 hours apart." Wikipedia

 First Signs of Spring

With the Sun's move in to Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, we start a brand new astrological year.
