I have been wondering if I would get back to my blog but have lacked motivation and inspiration. This week’s photo challenge is abstract and is perhaps the inspiration I needed. The following images are from photos I took at the Marble Arch Caves in Northern Ireland. I am a point-and-shooter and the lighting in the caves did not produce any great shots. So I decided to play with them and these are some of the results. I have tried to produce balanced abstract compositions by cropping and enhancing the textures, colours and forms from the cave interiors.

It was. Caving isn’t really my ‘thing’. I don’t like tight spaces and I have declined going into some for that reaso. But these were quite easy to navigate. Too bad I’m not a better photographer to have captured the interior with better images.

Hi Carol. Yes, that’s what I am trying to do although I hadn’t thought of it in those words – trying to find a way to live with his spiritual presence while missing terribly his physical presence. My new normal. I appreciate your words, Carol, thank you.
