The pain in Vinay's voice disturbed Radhika. “Shangri-La is a state of mind, Vinay. If you're happy, then everything around you will be okay and in harmony. Nothing is perfect anywhere. We must find our own paradise amidst the chaos. Just the way a beautiful lotus blooms in dirty water. ”
Nita Bajoria, The Leap
And then, in the midst of the still‐encompassing dream, he felt himself master of Shangri‐La. These were his beloved things, all around him, the things of that inner mind in which he lived increasingly, away from the fret of the world. His eyes strayed into the shadows and were caught by golden pinpoints sparkling in rich, undulating lacquers; and the scent of tuberose, so faint that it expired on the very brink of sensation, lured him from room to room. At last he stumbled into the courtyards and by the fringe of the pool; a full moon sailed behind Karakal.
James Hilton, Lost Horizon

Thank you John for commenting on Mother and Child. I believe with your gifted talent as a photographer, taking photos in Greece would be very impressive, the light here is truly amazing, and we would benefit greatly in seeing Greece through eyes.

Thanks for the comments on my picture Bow Wing. If I happen to catch a group of these Herons fishing the shoot is pretty easy. Its more about where to set up for the best lighting and setting up the cameras autofocus system to best match the conditions.

Hi John, Thank you so very much for your kind words and insight into "Light and Shadow"... your words bring back strong memories when I was a child, "passing the bathroom mirror" I can still feel that sensation today. However, I had posted another photo of Alex in the past when he is again looking at his shadow while drinking with a straw from a cup... so I am not sure if because of the similarity that maybe this should not be entered in the contest. What do you think? Again your words of support lift my spirits immensely. Wishing you and your family a very Happy Christmas and New Year!
