"Take me away, a secret place
A sweet escape, take me away . . . "
- Pocketful of Sunshine , Natasha Bedingfield
Yep, this space...
feels like a secret place, early upon the dawn
at the first sign of life
when the darkness turns to light,
and out of blindness comes sight.
As you are reading this,
I AM here,
with friends,
braving the cold
not just because I can
but because I have to
this place IS my stillness
my peace
my calm...
my sweet escape from the chaos of life
my center in the unevenness
in this space everything is right
everything is good, and sooo many possibilities exist
{KK 411 & 99}
THIS, is my pocketful of sunshine
that I carry around in my soul.
So thankful for this!
Love, Kim

Definitely worth braving the cold for these views! Every image is breathtaking and they remind me of the beauty that exists in a world where I am sometimes overwhelmed. The last photo is my favorite - the texture is the perfect enhancement.
Oh Kim, these are STUNNING!!
Super skyward photography.
Beautiful images!
What a beautiful collection. I needed a little sunshine today...our weather has been awful!
Your photos take my breath away...absolutely stunning. I'm glad you have this peaceful place to go to when you need it...thinking of you, Kim!
You make me want to take a trip to the beach today! Beautiful.
So warm, I want to hold my hands up to the computer screen to soak it in. Beautiful place.
How very beautiful and calming!!
Beauty at it's best Kim, and so glad you braved the cold so you could share your beautiful work. The last photo is so awesome.
Simply breathtaking! I, too, love the last one.
Oh, Kim, these are amazing; perfect capture of the birds and that golden light...simply gorgeous!
These are super gorgeous! It's like flipping through one of those glossy calendars... beautiful images.
Such beauty at the waters edge... What is it about the ocean that give us peace and stillness? Whatever it is I wish you could bottle some and send it to Ohio. :)
I'm so glad you have such a gorgeous place to go to. Rest to your soul at these unfair times. Keep soaking up the beauty God brings.
So happy that you have this place, how are you doing sweetheart.
This IS a beautiful space, Kim, where you can find peace within and calm down, get still. No matter the cold. It's so important to rest your soul and have a place for that.
These shots are just incredible. You certainly have a beautiful and peaceful place to retreat when life gets overwhelming or when you just need time to ponder.
Beautiful place, beautiful words, beautiful evocative images! Such tranquility and peace- thanks for sharing these lovely images.
Oh my goodness, this is paradise beautifully captured in your pictures!
Fantastic shots
Such beauty, Kim, and you capture it so well!
These images are golden - each and every one of these images are absolutely stunning.
Were these all from one morning? They're all just deliciously beautiful ... and make me want to come back! xo
Oh, Kim, these are all so peaceful. The sun shining through the wings - makes me think of the view we might have nestled safely in His arms. Psalm 61 Blessings.
Beautiful photos!
Beautiful Kim. Great silhouettes.
What a stunning place you have. These are so peaceful and beautiful.
it is a magical place kim...for all the reasons you stated. hard to believe the difference just a month makes in terms of temps.
These shots are beautiful! It has been three years since we saw the ocean. Looking at these photos almost gives me the ability to taste the salt water, feel the sand, hear the gulls. Nice feeling tonight. It is 9 degrees here.
Absolutely beautiful series of photos. Fantastic colors.
ohhh, the beach the sea. so very nice and uplifting... will be spending some time near the sea soon when I am visiting family and friends in the Netherlands. Beautiful images!
Nothing more amazing than the shots you post of the mornings at the ocean. You could not capture this llighting anywhere else, and know this place is such a solace to you!
Absolutely breathtaking. Those colors! Sigh. Thanks for joining i at Song-ography.
I am always impressed with how you can get up and out so early....but it is most definitely worth it! Lovely golden shots!
This is such a beautiful series of images, Kim!
Your sunrise images are so very powerful and emotionally resonant.
