Hello you beautiful soul, it’s Daniele here! Thank you for stopping by.

šŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗā£ Regrets often pop up in my mind daily. šŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗā£ Regrets often pop up in my mind daily. ā£ ā€œOh I should have done thatā€ā£ ā€œThey are living such a great life! I could have made the same decisions but I didnā€™t and now I'm failing at lifeā€ and suchā£ For me, I guess most of them are due to the social comparison I deal with. When I see people doing something I'd like to, the comparison starts and regrets are born.ā£ Another reason that can lead to regrets is trying so hard to make others happy before myself. And guess who does that? šŸ™‹šŸ¼ā€ā™‚ļøā£ .ā£ A few days ago, I saw the new @davidattenborough movie on Netflix. A life on our Planet is a truly beautiful, eye-opening and heartbreaking picture of our Mother Nature's health conditions. ā£ It made me feel both grateful and amazed at how beautiful our home is but also hopeless, sad and angry at how it gets treated by many people. ā£ Also, at the end of it, a life comparison between my life and his one and negative self voices and regrets started popping up. ā£ .ā£ However, it wasn't all just negative, as they made me feel the need to spend some time with Mother Nature. So, the next day, I went for a hike in the Blue Mountains. ā£ It was just me, the wind, the water and the wildlife.ā£ While walking, these regrets started fading out and got replaced with a sense of gratitude and appreciation. Along with some tears of joy. ā£ Mother Nature really knows how to heal us. ā£ And now more than ever, we have to help her heal from our mistakes. ā£ .ā£ This planet is our only home and we need to act quickly to save her. ā£ Donā€™t take the nature around you for granted. Protect and love her. She needs our help just like we need her.ā£ .ā£ Have you watched A life on our Planet?

šŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗā£ At first, I didnā€™t feel like sharing šŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗā£ At first, I didnā€™t feel like sharing this picture, even though I really liked it. The main reason was my nose. ā£ I couldnā€™t stop focusing on how big or weirdly shaped it looked. My nose is one of my body parts that I often think about ā€œfixingā€. This thought doesnā€™t last long, but it still pops up once in a while. ā£ And it did when I saw this picture. ā£ .ā£ Loving our body can be a lifelong and/or challenging journey for lots of people. No matter how often you get told things like ā€œOh you look beautifulā€ or ā€œI wish I had your eyesā€ and similar. If you donā€™t love it from within you, it will hardly look perfect for you. ā£ I had to go through anorexia and having almost lost my life to start loving and accepting my body. For sure, there were other mental challenges that led me there. But achieving the ā€œperfect bodyā€ was one of my goals during that time.ā£ .ā£ Now, I try to love and appreciate every part of my body. I know changes can be made, but your body is one of the things that make you unique. ā£ Your body is beautiful, strong and the expression of your soul. Nourish and celebrate it.ā£ .ā£ You might have heard or got asked the question ā€œWhat would you change about your body?ā€. ā£ At first, I didnā€™t think much of this question. But, now, I canā€™t stop thinking why is it so popular? ā£ Why would you have to focus on what you don't like?ā£ Instead, why not asking ā€œWhat do you love about your body?ā€ā£ .ā£ For me, I love that my body kept going even when it wasn't receiving fuel and didn't let my organs collapse. ā£ Also, I love that it goes through a lot to allow me to explore Mother Nature.ā£ Finally, I love when it puts a smile on my face to share with others.ā£ .ā£ Now it's your turn. What do you love about your body?ā£ .ā£ #encourageothers #dailyencouragement #loveyourbodynow #bodypositivitymovement #nomadict #discoverearth #travelinspiration #discoverglobe #roamtheplanet #discoverglobe #exploringaustralia #visitaustraliašŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗ #welivetoexplore #voyaged #worldofwanderlust #travelawesome #anxietybloggers #mentalhealthisimportant #canonaustraliapro #exploremoretoday #travelstribe #createyourreality #sigmaphotoaustralia #discoveraustralia šŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗ #moodnation #portaitphotography
šŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗā£ The last picture (maybe and for now šŸ˜…) of the ā€œMoody Lookout seriesā€. This photography session was so fun, inspiring and rewarding to do! It really brought back the love and passion I have for photography. Along with teaching my eye to start finding new ways of seeing the world. ā£ Even the editing session was great! This foggy style was relatively new for me so my creativity had a lot of freedom to just go crazy. ā£ .ā£ This shot in particular was relatively easy to edit yet it really excited me. If you scroll, you can see the before along with the tool that transformed the look of it. ā£ Besides the basic changes, a simple radial filter gave this shot a new life! ā£ .ā£ I added a small one on the face so it would affect the whole photo except for the face. Then, I brushed it a bit and increased the feather in order to make it look more natural. ā£ Finally, I turned the temperature slider to the left to make the landscape look very cold.ā£ It felt weird to slide it so much, compared to my usual edit. But the final effect truly conquered me. ā£ .ā£ Now, when looking at this shot, I canā€™t stop thinking about a different world. A frozen one where everything looks still and ethereal. But also mysterious, scary and beautiful at the same time.ā£ .ā£ I wasnā€™t sure if this ā€œtutorialā€ was a good idea. But I felt sharing it anyway! Did you find this quick breakdown of this shot useful? Let me know so I can do some more!ā£ .ā£ #nomadict #discoverearth #travelinspiration #discoverglobe #encourageothers #roamtheplanet #discoverglobe #exploreaustralia #bluetones #exploringaustralia #visitaustraliašŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗ #welivetoexplore #voyaged #worldofwanderlust #travelawesome #anxietybloggers #outofcomfortzone #canonaustraliapro #exploremoretoday #travelstribe #createyourreality #sigmaphotoaustralia #discoveraustraliašŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗ #moodnation #visualofearth #canonaustralia #eclectic_shotz #uniladadventure #portaitphotographyā£ #discoverportraits
šŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗā£ LET LIFE GUIDE YOUā£ .ā£ Sometimes y šŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗā£ LET LIFE GUIDE YOUā£ .ā£ Sometimes you just need to let life guide you. This is what @zach.mann and I did last week when we decided to drive to Canberra for a day! ā£ In the morning, there wasnā€™t the slightest thought of going there. Fast forward to the night and we were in the capital city of Australia and 4 hours from home! ā£ .ā£ When he asked me if I was keen on doing it, I looked at him very weirdly for a few seconds. ā€œWhat?! Where?! Today?!ā€ But the confusion didnā€™t last long and I quickly looked for a place to stay. ā£ However, when we found it, more doubts started to arise. ā£ ā£ ā€œShould we do it? - Is it a stupid idea? - Should we stay here and save this money?ā€ ā£ ā£ These doubts were trying to stop us but they didnā€™t last long. In less than 2 hours we had made lunch, dinner, got snacks and were hitting the road towards the capital! ā£ .ā£ Even though this trip was very quick, it was fun and spontaneous. There wasnā€™t enough time to plan, think or worry about it. ā£ It was either ā€œWe are doing it to break the routine for a day or we stay hereā€.ā£ .ā£ So, next time something unexpected comes up, go with your gut and donā€™t think too much about it. It might unfold something unexpected and totally worth it! ā£ I know how hard it can be not to let your thoughts stop you from breaking your comfort zone. But, at times, something comes up and thereā€™s not enough time for your brain to make them up! Often, that thing is worth the shot! ā£ .ā£ This picture is from the Parliament House, which is shaped like a boomerang! It was just us, the rain and the Federal Police parked next to us!ā£ . ā£ Have you ever gone for a totally unplanned trip that was decided on the day? Where was it and how did it go? Iā€™d love to hear!ā£ .ā£ #nomadict #discoverearth #travelinspiration #discoverglobe #encourageothers #roamtheplanet #discoverglobe #exploreaustralia #visitcanberra #exploringaustralia #visitaustraliašŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗ #welivetoexplore #voyaged #worldofwanderlust #travelawesome #anxietybloggers #mindsetmastery #canonaustraliapro #exploremoretoday #travelstribe #createyourreality #sigmaphotoaustralia #discoveraustraliašŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗ #moodnation #visualofearth #canonaustralia #eclectic_shotz #thinkverylittle
šŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗā£ During the editing process of this pic šŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗā£ During the editing process of this picture, I couldnā€™t stop thinking about the mind. Probably because last week it was mental health awareness week in New Zealand.ā£ At times, our mind can feel like a cage which traps us in. A cage from where you donā€™t know how to escape. In which time stops and you feel powerless.ā£ .ā£ This is something that anyone can experience but handle in their own way. For me, mostly due to anxiety and overthinking, my mind can become a sort of enemy. Daily fights between my soul and mind drain all my energy. My desire to break free, do countless things and become like the person I aspire to or compare to, fight with the feelings of being incapable, judged or unworthy. ā£ Then, I enter a cycle of making everything bigger than itā€™s supposed to. Or even making a simple decision can feel like a life or death situation because I'm surrounded by multiple and sneaky what-ifs.ā£ .ā£ However, there can be another side to all of this. This cage can also end up becoming my comfort zone. A place to feel safe, to avoid getting hurt and where I donā€™t have to give explanations to people who might not take me seriously or might make fun of me. Itā€™s my world. Only known to me. Itā€™s just me and my mind. An entity that can be both a kind and friendly Dr Jekyll or a strong and hostile Mr Hyde.ā£ .ā£ Iā€™ve stared at this shot for a lot of time. While writing this caption, I was feeling both powerful and vulnerable. And multiple questions started popping upā£ ā£ - Is this really relatable to other people?ā£ - Am I just making things up?ā£ - Should I just keep all of these for myself and try to write something cheerful or positive instead?ā£ ā£ But my soul was writing these words. ā£ .ā£ I like to think and believe that this cage can be broken. Because it hurts more than it feels comfortable. No matter how deep, thick and powerful it is. Or, at least, I hope we can become better friends. ā£ Whether you can relate to this or not, you are not alone. ā£ . ā£ As a final reminder, our mind is not a totally negative entity. Itā€™s a beautiful and complex creation of Mother Nature. It allows us to be the unique person that each of us is. And itā€™s so marvellously mysterious.
šŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗā£ In all honesty, I spent a couple of ho šŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗā£ In all honesty, I spent a couple of hours trying to think about what to write under this picture. I wanted it to be something meaningful, deep and related to the shot. However, I couldnā€™t think of what to say.ā£ My browser history was getting full of ā€œquotes about lifeā€, ā€œquotes about natureā€ and such but it just didnā€™t feel nor right nor honest to do so. Plus, it would have diminished the love I have for this shot and for being honest and open on here.ā£ .ā£ Somedays you just donā€™t feel very creative or full of things to say. ā£ It happens and itā€™s totally normal. ā£ It might also suck and you can end up beating yourself up for this, but itā€™s part of the creative process. ā£ .ā£ You can have times where itā€™s hard to contain your countless ideas and projects. ā£ While other times you just feel bored or empty for the whole day.ā£ Itā€™s part of the creative journey and part of life.ā£ .ā£ Everything will unfold and blossom at the right time. ā£ .ā£ This is a concept I always think about when looking at the fern. A tree with very wide and large leaves which, at first, are all folded into themselves. And then, at the right time, the magic happens. What was first a thin and small circle, it transforms and opens up to the world. ā£ Also, the more I look at it, the more it reminds me of human life. Especially babies in the womb. They often spend their time in it hugging themselves very tightly. Then, after 9 months, their life starts to unfold. ā£ .ā£ Whether we want it or not, we canā€™t unlink ourselves from Mother Nature. ā£ .ā£ #canonaustraliapro #roamtheplanet #fantastic_earth #discoverearth #earthofficial #nakedplanet #awesome_earthpix #discoverglobe #awesomeglobe #theglobewanderer #travelawesome #destinationearth #welivetoexplore #canon_photos #macroshotoftheday #travelinspiration #macronaturephotography #naturalworld #nature_brillance #natureoftheday #macroworldmania #passion_in_macro #macro_mania__ #macro_captures_nature #tourtheplanet #visualsofearth #natureaddict #wildernessnation #lonelyplanetces #nomadict
