"I only went out for a walk and finally concluded to stay out till sundown,
for going out, I found,
was really going in."
John Muir
A little side note...this quote was from John Muir's writings in 1913...
the same year that both my parents were born...
Linking to...
This is very beautiful, as is the quote.
ReplyDeleteNice shot and quote! That makes a great day...enjoy!
ReplyDeletePerfect quote. I am not sure that people today take time to ponder much less express such things.
ReplyDeleteGreat B&W photo.
ReplyDeleteBirches are great in B&W!
Love the photo and the quote. Interesting that it was in the same year as your parents' birth!
ReplyDeleteI love the trees....you can almost imagine a paint horse standing in them.
ReplyDeleteThank you Bibi and ClickN!!!
ReplyDeleteI know you're right Rambling Round...I live here in God's country and forget to ponder the beauty...
Thanks HansHB!!! The trees are actually Aspen...part of a very large grove...
Thanks Adele! I don't usually see a date associated with any of the quotes I pick...so when I saw it was 1913, I was struck by the coincidence...my mother passed away a few months before her 90th birthday...in September of this year, she would have been 100!!! And my father in May!!! He passed away when he was 83...
Thank you Linda!!! I like that image...love paint horses!!!
Thank you Dragonstar!!!
This is quite a grove, and quite a photo. B&W is the perfect choice.
ReplyDeleteAwesome click in B&W!
