Mood-Altering

The Lens-Artists Challenge, this week offered by Sofia, invites us to looks at mood. It’s been a very busy week for me, with time in short supply, so perhaps I need a spot of local walking to induce a mood of peace and calm.

… and just take a stroll down a woodland path …

Or perhaps a spot of merriment and street theatre is what’s required …

Or a seaside sunrise: even on a grey day.

Mind you, it’s as well to avoid nesting birds. They can get in a very bad mood, as this arctic tern can confirm …

He’s dive-bombing me. He thinks I’m possibly egg-collecting.

Best burn off a bit of energy and settle my mood …

… before returning home to be simultaneously awed and calmed by a local sunset …

  6. I love the shafts of light in that woodland shot and the tern in a bad mood made me laugh (although I wouldn’t have been laughing if he’d gone for me like that!)

    1. Oooh, he was scary. But just being a loyal father. And the shafts of light was one of those lucky moments when you’re glad that mobile phones have been invented!

  7. A walk through an old growth forest does it for me. A soft well trodden path with fallen pine needles under foot. No people nearby, no sounds or views of the modern world.
