In the Spotlight

Today I am thankful for the freedom that we get to experience, here in Tasmania.

Watching the state of Victoria, in Australia, calling a 6 week lockdown for Melbourne residents tugs at my heart strings. We used to live there and many of our friends are now about to start the long journey ahead of them.

I know many around the world have endured similar, and each time my heart broke a little more for you all. But today it is reflecting on just how blessed we are here at the moment to be able leave our house, see our friends and enjoy the great outdoors. Social distancing and hand washing are front and centre of our lives. But we still get to enjoy the simple luxuries many are not allowed to experience at this time.

I am sending prayers to the universe for this to all come to an end, take care everyone.
I feel the same way here in Queensland. Those poor people stuck in social housing πŸ˜’

Oh, this is just such a difficult time for everyone. I heard it on the news this morning about Melbourne residents. I just hope that we can all get back to normal soon. Very soon. Beautiful shot, by the way!

I feel for Victoria too. We have three grandsons living there, but not in the hot spots. Even so they are still affected.

Beautiful lighting in this lovely shot. Covid19 will not be over until the vaccine is found. We have had some days of 0 cases but are continuously told to be careful.

sorry to hear about what's happened in Melbourne for your friends. We are still opening in phases here in NY and like you say constant hand washing, wearing masks and social distancing. Hoping the ppl of the world can get through this.
Lovely photo Keren.
