The last one of this short series.

Around here we are starting the new year with snow.

My wish for the New Year, not to have all of the violence world wide, Peace on Earth. I don't ask for much do I?

Thank you for commenting.

---Peace on Earth. I don't ask for much do I?---

Either the reality or the Holy Bible learn us that since the time that Kaïn killed his brother Abel people are fighting and killing each other. Nevertheless do I wish with you that peace on Earth once will come true, Sandi.

Thanks for the final image in your fine small series in which a duck tries to get airborne, LOL!!!

Regards, Cornelius.

The duck has now fully landed. Another lovely shot Sandi. That water spray/drops look wonderful. The causes for violence in the world are greed, oppression and religious fanaticism. How can one rid the world of these? It won't be easy.

Peace On Earth good will toward man starts in the heart one soul at a time. So spread that to your neighbors and hopefully it will spread just like Cornelius' cold. It may take a while but it is a worthy cause. That duck is a creature of beauty and you captured the motion wonderfully Sandi.

Looks like he had one too many for New Year's Eve, Tigz.
He's having trouble keeping both oars in the water.
Super shot.

Like yourself, I wish for peace therefore here comes my next New Year's resolution: "do not let any anger, violence or grievance find a place in your mind".
Happy New Year, dearest SAS and let's take it easy and let's waste some time sometimes. :)

Love this action shot (the water drops look fantastic). The fact the subject is a duck is a bonus.
As for world peace, no it's not too much to wish for.
