Thank you, Shital, great work! Great to get to know your work, and I have written about Kairos time, take photos, and am an artist-writer, too.

For me, Kairos is the time to write and read. Chronos is usually my working time, although I also do it with pleasure.

Quiet observations of everyday life are the kinds of images I love to pause and look at. It’s so wonderful to see your side of the world through your eyes, Shital. Another inspiring post. Thank you for sharing!

Ethereal photos with a unique perspective and your posts are like prose, which appeal so much to me. My favorite line: "In my Kairos time, I meet myself – quietly and uninterrupted." I love my Kairos time!

There are a lot of these that I like, but particularly the second and fourth images. The amount of blur and the composition on that second image are absolutely perfect, to me. And I use blur myself quite often. The fourth one, I don't know exactly, but all the elements just sing together, with the guy on the right seeming to look in the direction of the bird, his companion looking behind him, the framing of elements on either side of the truck.. it just works magically together. Other images are really good too, but those just pop out for me.

And here's to Kairos time!

Amazing photographs. The colors. I think we’d all like Kairos. So hard to be spontaneous. I look fondly at young children at a playground or beach. Everything is new and exciting in their little cosmos. Thanks for sharing this.

Shital, “Gobsmacked” wouldn’t be too far off! I love today’s images. “Blow Horn” provided a deft touch to the truck and circling bird. The brightly colored rectangles painted diagonally on the building captured my attention. I thought I might list the images I really like. “All,” would be more appropriate. Your discussion of Kairos and the relationship with creativity is refreshing. I’m in your debt. 🙏🏽
