Philosophic thoughts about moments and transience of time.

Transience of Snow<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This morning I left Anton\u2019s beautiful cottage<\/a> (see this map, the cottage is marked in red) \u2013 the fantastic Hytte i Lyngsalpene<\/a> even before sunrise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While putting on my snowshoes I was thoughtfully wondering if I would be allowed to touch the untouched and intact snow cover – this white and endless beauty. Do not call me crazy, but my tracks would be visible for days!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Transience of Light and Shadows<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Down near the frozen J\u00e6gervatnet<\/a> thousands of trees casted their long shadows on the endless expanse of snow. Would the shadows still be there when I came back from the frozen lake?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everything is transient over time! <\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

It would be interesting to see the transience of light and shadows over time – maybe this could be one of my future photo projects?<\/em> Exciting!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

While I walked across the light forest I remembered John Muir<\/a>‘s famous quote: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u00abThe clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.\u00bb

“I have been waiting a long time for these short moments,
when coloured sparkling, shining,
glittering and shimmering bright spots of light
flit across the deep sky –
like cosmic paintings of my dreams.”
