Putting this together when you have no motivation, feeling down and just not wanting to do your daily routine has made me appreciate just any encounter I come across.
As many others have said on here before and videos and stories ( Gavin Mccue ) we only see the good. We always see the happy. We see these amazing subjects that we just wish we could get, but not every day is gonna be like that I took this video of a snapping turtle that came across a path while I was on a four hour walk looking for a creative subject, and it just appeared didn’t plan. It didn’t know what to do. I wanted to move them to help him to get out of the scorching heat, but I knew I have to leave nature how it is it will find its own way this big guy over here made his way to the pond to get out of the heat, and I took the time to just strictly observe them. Yes, this has a small video clip some stills, but I mainly just stood there and appreciated how prehistoric and how long this species has been around. he’ll probably outlive me and that is the take away from today appreciation.
