I turned around a bend on the steep hill, and found myself in paradise. The warm rays of the sun had painted the entire landscape golden, the sky was the perfect blue to set the colour off. I stopped to take in the beauty. Sometimes you need to do just that.

Lovely shot! We should stop and appreciate the beauty every day...
Appreciating the beauty of what we've got seems so important to me right now. Thanks for the lovely post.
The benefits of running; being surprised around each bend.
Taking in th beauty is something we don't do often enough. With the help of your photos we do it a little more.
You are right! And thank you for sharing your beautiful spot with us.
Stop, admire the beauty, and catch your breath!
We sure do! When I worked at a previous job I had the perfect spot to stop and watch the sun rise during certain parts of the year. It was glorious.
I'm glad you paused to drink in the moment - and share with us.
ah truly lovely. fills me up...
and stop to smell the roses too...

I always think it such a shame when joggers pound the paths and fail to appreciate the beauty around them. I've been left behind many a time by hiking friends because I wanted to stop and look. We all need to stop and look sometimes.
Yes! Stopping to take it all in is a good thing for sure!!
What beauty we miss as we rush around!

@ Fiona - thank you. And right in the middle of Bombay, at that!
@ Tricia - I do hope things are well with you. And thank you.
@ Diane - totally. If you want to be surprised. When they saw the picture, three of the girls I was running with commented that they didn't even see it.
@ Mary - I am sure you see all the beauty there is to be seen. You are that kind of person.
@ Dorte - Thank You!
@ Alex - that too ;-)
@ Jemi - isn't it great having a favourite spot like that.
@ Sue - it was really beautiful. Couldnt' not have.
@ Jan - thank you. And as I keep saying, within the city.
@ Rama - wildflowers in this case!
@ Rosalind - that is such a pity. While it is good to be that focussed, isn't it better if you can do both things together.
@ SueAnn - absolutely. It makes sense to just stop for a couple of minutes.
