A Moment In Time...

“Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."

~Steve Jobs

There certainly seems to be depth that is unexplainable, magnificent, a photo in a world that
becomes increasingly one all your own. Fantasy begins and yet reality has never been so

Oh, this is so hauntingly beautiful! My sincere compliments!

Punit from Somewhere in, India

Fantastic and it syncs so very well with your title and description. The blurring couple there, to me, exhibits temporary nature of our existence in front of the "more permanent" nature. Interestingly, the previous photo blog I just visited is of Nitin (http://nitin.aminus3.com) that has the following quote in its description that is equally apt for your photograph as well:

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”

Mark Twain
