It's snowing today, in northeast Ohio. That, in itself, wasn't it.
The "kodak moment" came as I hurried home from running errands this morning. I pulled up into my driveway and saw my visitors.
Two doves were sitting in the blowing snow. One sat perched in a tree near my walkway. The other sat on the rail of the walkway. They seemed undisturbed by the falling snow, blowing wind and freezing temperature. They seemed... at peace with the moment.
I scurried in and grabbed my camera and tripod. Then, as I slipped out the door to snap away, I hoped I wouldn't disturb them. More than I wanted the photos, I wanted them to feel at home. I wanted them to feel like they could sit there, in peace, all day if they wanted.
I got my photos. And they were all that I was hoping they'd be. And more. I found in them, a moment of peace.

I enjoy reading your writing.
You always make me feel at ease, peaceful...yet, you always get me thinking. Dreaming, really. I don't know how to explain it.
We're connected.
