Le compte-rendu : 21 Juillet Nav 8 (mise à jour : 06 févr. 2022)
Each departure must be a renunciation of wanting to control the elements of the day, it is the water and the wind which impose themselves as events.
A headwind awaits us but our harnesses are in place and they will become our best allies.
It's up to us to read the rhythm and the jerk of the waves to try to match the tempo of what opposes our progress.
No time to meditate against the waves, you have to observe, anticipate, choose and never take the time to regret.
The main thing is to move forward. No image, fixed or animated, can transcribe the efforts made, because for that it would be necessary to stage our life in a way that seems unworthy of our intimacy, as well as the reality of our characters !
I have always told my daughter that a father should not be an example but a referent, an adviser, the person she can count on to never betray her confidences and consider her truths.
To want to be an example is to put on a show !
Amélie who doesn't care about capillarity !
We had never done it before, the GoPro virus had never reached us but since it's the last trip together and I'm tired of always doing the same as pictures, the camera is installed on Amélie's canoe .
Without sun it sucks,
but as soon as he shows up everything takes on character.
We advance against the wind with the sun which declines as the hours go by,
Everyone struggles with the rhythm that you have to know how to maintain in order to move forward.
We are close to take the images but in such conditions, we sail rather far apart. But the images, such as they are, are never the transcription of reality.
It remains to recover the camera to store it before it is completely wet,
and the time to do this maneuver, the force of the wind takes us back seriously... it shows on the gps tracks !
Our destination is Honka, it is so on our way and in our hearts that we couldn't avoid going back.
Max loaded !
I always have the idea that a guy could come out of the cabin and fire a shotgun blast at the drone! Finland is a country with a lot of weapons! It seems that these are the cultural remains of the revolution.
Honka offers us a demented first evening under the crazy moon.
While Amelie sleeps, I reload everything that can be and I promise myself not to make any more images of my next trips, I feel that I'm really fed up and that from now on, I do it too often reluctantly.
I want to travel without having to think about capturing what seems to me the most beautiful, because you also have to manage the batteries and the sun and que it becomes a discipline when it's daily, and after 7 years of doing it, I have no qualms about getting drunk on it !
The morning after our arrival Amelie is asleep, and as if to flatter my neurosis, I take pictures !
Since our departure I have been looking for a puppy, a Lapinkoïra, a Finnish shepherd, a so-called "primitive" dog, used by the Saami to lead their herd of reindeer.
But this research does not give anything, yet I am convinced that I will find it, sooner or later. It was on this island that we had come across two of them, in hair and bone !
At 6am the sun is already slamming so hard that its omen is hellish. The meeting of these two dogs was a sign that I have never neglected.
We decide to stay two days, one to rest, the other for me to take mushrooms in this place that I idealize with so much pleasure.
I experienced beauty in Honka as one breathes. Lying in the sand, leaning against my canoe, I laughed so much with the trees that I had to listen to them to regain some discipline. I never forget that people who are too happy often look suspicious !
Nature I contemplate it, I venerate it, I eat it, and it is more spiritual than what my detractors could consider !
It's so good to be able to feel the beauty of life at this point, to touch on its mysteries without trying to understand everything that could break its magic.
Sometimes I take myself for the wife of Charles Ingalls !
Honka, it's kneeling with joined hands and bowed head in the velvet of your beauty that you bewitched me.
I will come back, it is already planned.
