Live Peace and Passion

I’ve subscribed to John Carey’s site – fiftyfootshadows.net – for some time now. I appreciate and enjoy the way he writes, photographs, and films life around him. The footage below, was filmed by John while he waited for a train in India. Though there’s quite a lot going on in the short piece, it’s intriguing to me how serene it feels. I think it’s interesting how most people in this film just walk on by, looking straight ahead, without regard to John’s filming in the least. This added to the appeal of the footage, along with it’s randomness and simplicity. But most of all, I enjoy the glimpse of peaceful, everyday life in India at the train station. Thank you for sharing your film John.

If you’ve been visiting LivePeaceandPassion.com for a while, you know that I adore Manatees.. I got permission to share these two wonderful photos with you here. I hope you enjoy them and take a few moments to also visit SAVETHEMANATEE.ORG – a precious organization focused on protecting manatees and their aquatic habitats for future generations.. I am the proud adoptive mom of Whiskers, a West Indian Manatee who is being cared for at the Blue Springs State Park in Florida. I will scan and share a picture of him next post. Meanwhile, enjoy these photos of Whiskers’ friends below.
