Night Light

I love that at this time of year even Evening’s swanning light cooperates with Mr. Electricity to say, “Happy Holidays!” 
Do you see it too?

So much gold shining bright…

…mixed with wondrous sapphire skies keeping the Christmas star well-hidden until the night of the 24th.

There is peace here…
…within a quiet so profound that my footsteps, my breathing feels muffled, scarf-covered and warm.

Or maybe that is just how it is for me in this little corner of Provence.

I am thinking of you all and that it has been over four years for me of writing at Lost in Arles. I have seen so much beautiful spirit in the blogging community recently and not only because of the time of year. I find it incredibly inspiring and hope that you do as well. May we all continue to be night lights for each other in the dark.

Camera update: These were taken with an SLR that Remi is lending me. Apparently, I don’t know as much about working in manual as I thought that I did. But I will get there and it still felt wonderful to head out with a camera in hand just because I could. Thanks for staying with me during this bumpy time. And if your eyes are left lacking, there is always the archives to dig into. 😉

With my Best from Provence,
Heather

  1. Sweet blog! I found it while browsing on Yahoo News.

    Do you have any suggestions on how to get listed in Yahoo News?
    I've been trying for a while but I never seem to get there!
    Appreciate it

  2. Yes, you DID leave amusing comments on my blog posts but after the buttermilk incident. 🙂 Who would have ever thought that friends could be made over buttermilk? And thank you for that…do you think the book could help me? I just can't get the math in my head.

  3. He's right. Your photos are atmospheric, moody, dreamy… I used to have trouble with the technical aspects of photography but I bought a book at the V&A called, "Read this if you Want to Take Great Photographs" by Henry Carroll. He lays it all out so simply. I highly recommend it. Did we really meet over buttermilk? Funny, I thought it was the amusing comments I left on your blog posts.
