The Magic of Nature Photography Quiet Moments

What is your favourite thing to do that is your “silence” where time can just feel like it stands still?

For me, its my camera, in nature. Especially macro. With macro, its more than what you see when you initially look around, it goes deeper, its the details that are often missed.

This past week our family was rocked, a legend who will be dearly missed passed yesterday and already his presence is deeply missed. The irony, but nothing is a coincidence, passing on September 9th. 9-9-2025 – which this year is also a 9 year. 9 being a year of completion, ending of cycles in numerology. He actually passed on 999!

Its incredible the energy that can surround death, massively mixed emotions of incredible happy memories, and then the realization that he wont be around anymore or the heart wrenching reminder that upon his arrival in Heaven he would also be greeted by my brother, who we lost back in November. I think honestly that’s been one of the hardest parts of this. Losing someone who Ive known my entire life, who we as a family spent a lot of time with growing up, and who knew my husband before I did (well he did, my cousin, my dad, my brother LOL). Who we had a blast with through the racing and hockey years. He will be dearly, dearly missed on so many levels.

Its almost like I could hear my brothers voice, welcoming him with them in Heaven. It is like warm hug knowing our loved ones aren’t alone, but, yes of course there is a but, but they aren’t here with us. And as I typed that I heard nope we are. Humans cannot see the spirits, but when we allow ourselves to be open to the spiritual side… magic can happen. Even through the heart break!

As a beautiful reminder, from a man who truly LIVED and LOVED what he was doing. Through all the things! Something we all need to remember and embrace!

I love the magic this lens can do with macro images.
