A particle of the world might be the world itself.

Nyon - Vaud (Switzerland)

Another morning brushes the houses of my street with sunlight.
It would even look nice, the way it is right now,
Quite difficult to take good photos, at least the way I like, I don’t know it’s right to call them good.
It might give to the adjective a too categorical and absolute meaning.
I wonder what I want to do in reality, with this imaginary notebook.
Maybe I want to make an attempt to think over, by writing...
Thinking over...another face of individualism, I suppose.
Wasting time to think over in a kind of small enclave, as if it was the whole world.
I cannot claim to know the entire field only running up to its borders, if I don’t fully know my own clod first.
Then maybe I’ll find out that every clod is like the field.

the image compression of this lovely mild telephoto shot mirrors the density of the thoughts expressed...I had to read them several times...V

This really sums up being 'bathed in sunlight'. Beautiful soft tones

Interesting crop. Little roof. No street. It's the windows, right? Windows that look out over your 'clod', your part of the world. The concept of 'thinking over' is interesting. From my knowledge of you, you 'think over' with your camera, but you want to write. Good. As for me, I like to withdraw into a rather small particle, as I feel the 'world itself' is too rough, too evil, to superficial. I feel/think/hope that I can make my particle a good particle. And once again, no Marisa photo without color - those flags add so much to the image. Nice.
