“Nothing is more important than reconnecting with your bliss. Nothing is as rich. Nothing is more real.” – Deepak Chopra

The prompt for day four of Photography101 was the prompt of “Bliss and captions”, I already used captions on my photos so have not changed that at all.

Although I know the meaning of the word, I decided to look it up in a dictionary and this is what I found:

Noun: perfect happiness; great joy

Verb(informal): reach a state of perfect happiness, oblivious of everything else.

Love of reading

I have a quiet few moments reading a good book.

Listening to music

I listen and get engaged in music.

Holiday bliss

I am on holiday with my family, visiting far away places and enjoying sights and sounds away from home.

Watching the sun go down

I am watching the sunset over the sea with my loved ones.

Hot latte on a cold day

I am sitting relaxing with a coffee after shopping trip (not my favourite thing to do at all, so a coffee is what I look forward to).

The list could go on, but I think you probably get the gist; my idea of bliss is when I am not at work and have time to relax or spend time with my family. I think that is probably why I enjoy photography so much as it gives me the “me” time that everyone needs every now and then.

How would you interpret the word bliss in a photo?

As long as there are games to play it is not over. – Alex Ferguson

In control

My kids tend to be outside playing more than they are inside so I do not mind if they have the odd 30 minutes or so on computers or game consoles. My sons favourites at the moment are FIFA 15 on the PS4 (what he is playing here) or Minecraft on the iPad.

Team selection

Selecting his players, making transfers, planning his tactics, he loves managing his team just as much as playing the game itself.

Serious moments

It can be serious business waiting to see if your transfer bids have been successful!

Concentration

Then it is time to concentrate on a game, at this point I was told my time was running out, 2 minutes and counting.

In the distance

Above and beyond

Intense moments

He started to get fidgety as the game was nearing an end and seconds later after a good win for his team he jumped up and headed outside to practice his kick ups in the garden.
