Hi, I'm Marilyn. Â I've been posting here on RR for a few years now and thought it was time to update my profile. Â It's been wonderful learning so much from the amazingly talented people here. Â I've had the chance to meet many in person and some have become great and good friends. Â Starting with a Kodak Brownie camera when I was about 7 or 8, moving up to Instamatics, Polaroids, then the Pentax K1000 that really got me on the way, I've been looking at the world thru a lens for a long time. Â Got the bug honestly; my dad was a photographer and gave me the gene!! Â Digital changed the world and I jumped in with both feet. Â You would've gone thru 100's of rolls of film in one day the way we can shoot and delete all day long. Â Progess...it can be awesome sometimes.
At any rate, RR rocks, the talent is over the top and I'm just gonna keep on shooting!!
Thanks for looking and keep those cameras rollin'!!
peace.....marilyn

You have a safe trip home now. You can see why it's called eel river from this image. Wonderful prose yet again Marilyn, penned with feeling deep within the soul. Bravo!!!!!

Safe travels home! Again you've captured the essence of things here! Travel definitely opens the heart and mind and soul and always teaches you things you never expected to learn! The best part about traveling is that home is always a somewhat different place when you return to it. It's still home, it's still familiar, and it's still a great place to return to, but you always see it somewhat differently--small things you might have missed or taken for granted are brought into focus, and the big things you're accustomed to are somewhat brighter and a bit more engaging...I love that feeling. The image that accompanies this piece is also incredibly well presented; it's beautifully captured!

"There's no place like home," as Dorothy said! Hope you had a wonderful time, traveling. Great poem and capture.

Going Home is the song that was sung by the grieving throngs standing along the railroad tracks as the train carrying the body of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt made its slow passage back to Washington, DC, in 1945. Anyway, more fine prose, this time depicting your sabbatical with friends and family, Marilyn; plus I really like the insert showing the Eel river snaking its way along the wide terrain.

Going away is a wonderful thing but nothing beats the feeling you get when you are ready to go home. Very nice

And the most wonderful thing will be when you enter your house again, and it looks like a place you've never seen before.... That's so weird, isn't it?

Yes it is good togo away but it is even better going home. Makes you see your home in a different light.
