Clarity

This picture was taken on an early morning walk in Eureka Springs. There are so many things to do and see when you travel, but I find the most rewarding is to just walk around in the quietness of the morning. It is then you see things not normally seen. Clerks are opening their shops, sweeping the sidewalk, no parking zones brightened with a fresh coat of school bus yellow paint, fresh baked goods fill the air while locals walk their dog. The evening holds a different charm as the colored light from bar signs filters through cigarette smoke creating a mystical charm to a lonely street or alley way. It is during these times that one can breathe deep and obtain clarity.
