This is just...
This is far far far from being publish worthy but is what I was able to do. So, you get to see it.
I'd been tinkering with the thought of creativity and why I sometimes struggle with it so much. At @naturaleyemedia we've taken up the challenge of spending a week creating something new for ourselves regardless of the busy schedule. This week was my turn.
It's just a dot...what's yours?

Got to grease these rusty gears...
Finally got my hands on a machine that doesn't slow me down (for now)...the @asus@asusrog Strix Scar 16.
You might just find me crushed under the weight of the behemoth that is the power brick. But hey...you win some, you lose some.

Some more moments from the Oxford University Museum of Natural History
Well worth a visit, IMO. There's a lot more than what you'll see on social media and even if you don't go to the museum itself, the walk is worth it.
That's one thing I find in the UK - the walks don't feel like a chore.
But anyway, it's interesting how everyone experiences the museum in their own way. Shows you how all of us see life differently. Also proves why it's so important to share life with one another.
Hope it's a rested Sunday.

Let's keep this going!
Glimpses into the Christmas market in Oxford, England.
This was quite close to the Natural History Museum in Oxford.
These markets have been a new experience and something I wouldn't mind doing again. Yeah, they're crowded but the food...the food more than makes up for it!
I have two more carousels from the natural history museum to share. Will do that sometime.
Need to do better with covering Bristol and London.

Yeah, I'm thinking I like this method for carousels much better. Sure it's extra work but it's more fun.
If you're in Oxford, head over to the Oxford Museum of Natural History. It is absolutely worth it. Even if you're not into museums, the vibe itself might make it worth the visit. Plus the art is too notch.
The last time I was at @morethanadodo in Pitt Rivers was during the day but I feel it really comes alive during blue hour. Thought I'd share some shots taken at blue hour since it looks so cool!
This is all free. Visits like this really make me think about how much more we could all be doing. Yup, I'm looking at my own country here, unfortunately.
Do you enjoy museums?

Day 99 of the #100daychallenge so why not try something different?
Also, I wanted to redeem myself for the absoluteely mess of a panorama I had put out earlier in this challenge.
I've been thinking about life a lot lately and what I want out of it. Sometime over the past few years, this has been a place that has given me the peace and space for me to lend myself to this important dialogue.
This is the must-visit M Shed at Princes Wharf in Bristol, England. I've been here a few times already and it's always a place that leaves me wanting a bit more.
Here's a tip for you - if you do visit, find roof access. It's worth it (if permitted 😉)

Colour or black and white?
I got asked what's the one thing I'd love to pass on to someone if were to tell them about what they should do to make life worth living. Well, that's easy - follow Jesus. That's the only tried and true way I've found to find purposes, meaning, and happiness. Whenever everything else fails, he doesn't.
No matter what I've faced or where I've found myself in life, I've found him to be the only reliable answer through it all. That's why I am where I am and while I don't know where I'll be tomorrow, I'm confident it'll be better than today.
I'm normally one to avoid tourist-y places like the plague, or at the very least visit at times when there are fewer people around but this is one of the few places I wouldn't mind visiting even if it's a little crowded.
Every time I've been to Lion's Point in Lonavala, Maharashtra, India it's been an experience. There are paths that you can find that'll take you away from the crowds and the noise so you can be with yourself and your marker and contemplate life.
Since there have been requests, this was shot on the Canon 650D with the 18-55mm lens

There have been moments where this #100daychallenge has felt like a chore. I guess today has been one of those days.
But it's also important for me to remember that I'm closer to the shore than when I first started. That's often what's kept me going and that's where I'm at today too.
This may be a post more for the sake of ticking a box than for the sake of art but I guess there's still some value in that.

What a year, eh? But also (and perhaps more importantly) what a year that's coming, eh?
There's going to be an entire ocean of opportunities and experiences to explore.
I'm somewhere in the middle. There are things I'm looking forward to but there are also things I'm a bit apprehensive about. But looking back, most of my apprehensions have had no foundation and things have been just fine. That's something to look forward to!

The last week of the year's here. I usually feel the years have passed by too soon but not this time. This year felt like it's gone on forever.
This is also one of the few times I don't think time stretching has been a bad thing. Sure, there have been a lot of low points but it's also been a year that's been so full.
So full of challenges. So full of wins. So full of learning. So full of growth. So full of being knocked down. So full of finding the strength to keep going.
So very full of friendships. So very very full of some of the best people.
So amazingly full of God's love and light.
It's been a full year. It's been a good year.
I am grateful.
This is one of my favourite portraits I've ever taken and it was just a moment in time. Took this during a photo walk in Darjeeling, India. This lady was just resting her legs before the uphill climb with her groceries and she kindly agreed to pose for a photograph. I love these kinds of shots.
