Light and Dark

This is my life. I am at an impasse - stuck in every way imaginable. The paradox is that everything I am doing is filled with light, but none of it makes my spirit soar. That is, with the exception of photography.
The work is to acknowledge the powerlessness of being in impasse, to embrace the mystery of it, and to be fully present.
On another note, a photo I posted last Wednesday wound up with 30 fav's, yet did not make the TT. Are photos that are posted on Wednesday no longer a part of the algorithms considered in the following days toward the TT? Just kinda bummed. But once again, why does this bother me so much? It's because I have an ego that needs taming. All part of the impasse.
If you read this far, I thank you for caring. :)

Beautiful moody shot.

This is quite beautiful and perfectly illustrates your state of impasse. Regarding the TT - the mystery of the algorithm is something we all try to understand but fail!!

@judithdeacon Thank you for your thoughts, Judith. I truly appreciate them and you! :)

Incredibly gorgeous photo. Life is tough. I often feel stuck, too! Hoping the sunshine comes out soon for you.

Looks like storm season has arrived! Love the light when the storm clouds are setting in the right part of the sky. So sorry your spirit is grounded ... hopefully just for a moment ... As for TT ... I so seldom get there it doesn't factor into my ups and downs. Please know that all I find inspiration in all your work. I don't understand how Kansas sunrises and sunsets can be so much prettier than mine here in Nebraska! And your fence lines ... and hawks ... and, and, and ... Did you read Lou Ann's post about the English University Study that says we 365rs are a taking care of our well-being? If not, have a look: https://petapixel.com/2018/05/01/photo-a-day-projects-improve-well-being-study-finds/

I'm hearing you - I am finding that a large amount of images on the popular page get there with 0 comments and 0 favs. I used to be there a lot, but haven't been for some time. That's ok, until I find people with 0 followers, and who follow 0 people, get 0 comments and hit the PP.
I went to help and saw that Ross says don't even email me about who gets onto the PP.
Rant over, I love this place, but I would rather we didn't have a PP if it means nothing.
love your work Kareen.
