A Time of Peace


Peace settles over the lake at dusk, like a balm to the soul. Except for the occasional plaintive call of a loon from far away, there is only a deep and penetrating silence. The forest settles into shadow while rich swaths of color still play in the western sky. Image and text c Lynda Lehmann.

I've been posting a lot this week. I love to share the beauty of nature and I blog whenever I have the time. I certainly don't want anyone to feel pressured to comment when I'm putting up so many posts. But I do hope you enjoy my photos!

This image is available at my primary site at www.lyndalehmann.com, as an 8 x 10 inch print in archival inks, matted (acid-free) to 11 x 14 inches and ready for framing. You can also purchase it at Imagekind un-matted, matted, or framed.

  3. Lynda -

    A visit to your blog is always like a great escape... a vacation when one can't be afforded.

    I love the tranquility, the sense of peace, and the chance to "get away", even from my desk chair.

    Beautiful imagery.

  5. Lynda with photo like that who doesn't want to leave a comment. Title 'A Time of Peace' is just right for this photo, and to not forget we need that time of peace in our life. And no pressure at all from you, Anna :)

  10. Anna, I think we all have the capacity to make our own peace, if we make it one of our priorities to do so. There is such beauty around us, and if we turn a bit inward, we can find the capacity for building all kinds of inner resources. The ability to appreciate beauty is one of them. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me.

I try to respond to comments whenever I can. I ALWAYS appreciate your visits and friendship, and I will reciprocate with visits to your site. Thanks for sharing parts of your blogging journey with me. I value each and every one of you.

NOTE: Please, no more memes, schemes, or awards. They're fun and they may help us to know each other better, but I'd rather spend the time reading your posts and having you READ mine!

Happy blogging!
