Photography or a image I feel often captures those treasured moments in ones life but I also find that just like the act of writing our collective pictures can also be an art-form. The beauty and meaning of photograph can be expressed and shared in many ways including "by not using any words".

While I do like photography I used to share images when I could that I captured day to day events, the feedback was mostly positive and I continued sharing these "Ulog type" photos.

Almost every picture as a story to tell, or at least that is what I have often been told by some of my regular followers when I first started sharing photos on here.
To those who have often said and expressed that to me I would have to agree with them.

Today 30/1/2022 I share this capture.

Well seems like the year is passing by just as fast as I expected with January already coming to it's close.
The good things about that is that hopefully the days will get longer and more covid restrictions will be abolished.

I went to sleep later than I wanted which really I shouldn't of as I had plans for today, but really I guess I also allowed this knowing that today I didn't have work to get in for, I felt like I needed anyway that extra rest time.

When I got up this morning I was pleased to see it was bright outside and a few moments later the sun was fully out.
This is all good because like I said already I had plans for going out later today and don't want it to be ridiculously cold out.
I did see one of our neighbours and she went out wearing a skirt and while the weather is nowhere appropriate for that it was still a good sign the day is decent.
Well unfortunately by the time I got out it was freezing again, and there I was at first thinking I was going to probably feel too hot with the extra layer on.

With no work today it gave me the chance to rest more this morning and in the afternoon to catch-up with things I wanted done at home before going out for dinner and movie with my friend.

We was running a little late but hurried to the restaurant as we really didn't want to miss the movie but on arrival we was a little horrified by how busy and chaotic the scene was.

We picked our food quickly as there was little choice, still on a half dirty table.
I went up to order our meals so nobody would steal our seats, got ignored by the manager and than the guy served 2 other people before me when I was there first.
Was beginning to get a little pissed but the guy took my order very well and was very polite.
The food arrived quickly, thanks goodness as the place was packed I thought we would of have to leave before the food even got there.
While the food arrived quickly it definitely wasn't great, it had definitely gone downhill since I was last there.

We didn't have time to finish our drinks, but sprinted out of there and made it to the movie in time, I was expecting to be very disappointed by it but it turned out to be a really good watch.

As for steps I'm keeping less tabs on it because I had to do a factory reset on my phone and right now it's working so well that I don't feel like I want to add anything that may trigger it to slow down again.

Picture

Anyway as for the picture today I share one of my cat Daniel, which I began posting more of him lately.
Shame really as unfortunately poor Daniel is no longer with us, he died at home with us under the best care and love we could give him.
Daniel was completely different to he's brother Toffee, he as always been a gentle soul who didn't ask for much, he mostly just wanted to be excepted and safe, he was always very shy and took what he suffered from previous humans harshly as it took a very long time for him to settle with us, shame really as I always wanted him to feel more at ease here and to put that life behind him. It's obviously not easy as even for humans trauma sticks with us, sometimes forever.
Which actually by looking at this picture you wouldn't think he had a care in the world he looks like a sleeping baby here. As I took this photo of him sleeping comfortably with he's head on the chair's back rest I noticed it's always how I wanted him to be "comfortable and relaxed". While the light made he's white fur a little too bright for this photo it's still nice to see Daniel relaxed in this way.

I often spend some of my time taking care of many abandoned cats who mostly all suffer from some form of psychological trauma and I sometimes share their life's moments here on Steemit.
