I took a class, Composition-On-Location: Princeton University, via the Princeton Digital Photo Workshop group. The class was led by Alan Kesselhaut and Bob Mulholland. Alan spent some talking about the basics of composition before we started a slow walk around the Princeton University campus. Both instructors were willing to answer questions while also giving guidance on approaching some of the subject matter -- mostly buildings -- we encountered.
Of all the shots I took, this one of the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs was my favourite. I made it while walking back up Washington Road. The class was over and I want on my way back to my car.
The base rum used in Kraken is from Trinidad and Tobago, distilled from molasses made from local sugar cane.
I bought Bhavna something special for her birthday. I bought her a bottle of single malt scotch aged for 14 years in Caribbean rum casks. We both enjoy scotch but I prefer rum. While I was in the store I bug myself an inexpensive bottle of rum. Kraken rum served over an ice ball.

Yesterday's walk around Hobler Park near The Great Road in Skillman was a delightful escape from the everyday hustle. I was joined by Bhavana, Kiran, and a warm-hearted cluster of area residents. We all found solace under the open skies. Bhavna's sister and my other in-laws were among us, infusing the day with familial warmth.
As we meandered through the trails, our steps mixed with the rustling whispers of the dried grass underfoot, Terry Lynch, a renowned author and international speaker, guided our thoughts towards nature's healing effects. She illuminated the concept of nature as a conduit for vitality, inviting us to draw from its energies.
Terry spoke of stress and anxiety, not as burdens we must carry but as fleeting shadows dispelled by the light of nature. She encouraged us to breathe deeply, let the crisp air cleanse our worries, and let the serenity of our surroundings seep into our souls.
And so, we stood quietly, amidst the grassy fields, raising our hands skyward, emulating the trees around us. It was more than a mere gesture—a moment of unity, a collective release of pent-up emotions, and a shared rejuvenation. It felt as though with every breath, we were restored and intertwined with the pulse of life that thrummed beneath our feet.
We departed with more than just memories; we left with spirits lightened, minds clear, and hearts full of the healing power of nature.
