Blue Basin


There are places on earth that will leave you breathlessly standing in awe of their magnificence.



This most wonderfully happens when you do not quite know where the trail is leading



and in little stages the setting reveals itself.




Likely, you didn't mean to even to go the whole length of the path



but it seduced you along by inch and you went with reckless abandon


and you went along joyously,



feeling the electricity in the air come coursing into your body.



At the end you were surrounded by a basin of nature's magic, cast in fading light.


An amphitheater full of stillness and epiphanies embraced you.


And on the journey back, you heard some exotic symphony that had no sound.
