Momentary stills...

... from the Stream of Life.

...

These are a bunch of stuff that's been idling in my photo collection for a while. They all have something to do with nature - sky, birds, clouds and the radiant light of the sun itself. They are the lil things in life that have the wondrous power to trigger a smile.. that is.. if you'd care to spare a moment to observe them and enjoy.

Sky... is the Limit.




Even a heartless concrete pole gleefully bows before the glamorous morning Sun. For it knows without this giant star.. Earth would have been yet another lifeless planet snuggled amidst countless galaxies.. where life visibly not exist.


While his piercing eyes scan the green canopy, her razor sharp beak gently preens its jet black plumage... and thus begin another fine day of the raven couple.. dwelling at the border of the Habarana Jungle.


Every time I stare at this vast blue heavens.. I feel so tiny.. like a nanobot. The world so large, so vast, so boundless.. even one streak of a cloud straddling so high up.. dwarfs these lofty tropical giants on the land.


To rain.. or not to rain.. do not take so long to ponder.. shed your tears and let us quench this lifelong thirst. Oh mighty regents of the heaven, we that dwell in this arid planes are forever at your mercy.


When a scalloped gray cloud wears a golden silhouette.. there's a blazing fireball hiding behind those fluffy tufty clouds. Time to time it'd take a sneak peek at the tiny world beneath, where life revives every morning with the rays of hope.. it beams.


That hazy glow of the horizon is neither a sinister grin of the rumbling Zion nor a blaze exuding from a crevice in Hades. It is only time for the weary sun.. to take a dip in the blue ocean.. far beyond these rolling hills.. and call it a day.

I had lots more to be posted here but I guess this is enough for today. ^__^

  4. @ Rain:hehe.. thanks. I only tried to make it sound poetic.. not at all wise. =D

    @ K: Thanks. And I'm glad to know they didn't turn out nonsensical. =D

    @ Chavie: Thanks and glad you liked them. ^__^

    Oh ya, that's true. You won't believe but the actual sight was even more eerie and mysterious. I seriously wanted to get off from the cab and check it out but the cab was speeding too fast and we were already getting late (on our way to Matale), so had to settle with this motion blurred one. *sigh*

  7. @ Fufu: Glad to hear and you noticed their difference? I'm a big cloud fan. =D There's lot more I've collected over here.

    Thanks for your feedback and greatta know you liked them.

    Oh ya, same here. It's a pity we're having the monsoons so no more blue skies for a while. You're welcome and thanks again.

  8. Beautiful skies! There is something very clean about the skies. We are in to the winter now and such skies will be rare. Even when they do show up, there are enough jets and other stuff flying over, they create their own streaks of clouds.
    I am glad that I will see those same skies in December, even for only two weeks!

  10. @ Magerata: Yep, they sure are. I think it's cuz most of them were snapped close to the dry zone on our way to Tantirimale or Somawathiya.

    Yep, they're called contrails right? We see them hardly over here. Really? That's great! Hope you'd enjoy a wonderful holiday here.

    @ Anjana: Thanks. I just tried seeing them from the nature's POV.

    Oh ya, very much. I've also started making plans ahead, even took a few IQ tests but looks like my IQ has dropped drastically in just a few years. -__- If I don't make use of this teeny brain of mine, I'm gonna end up being brainless for good. lol
