Lockdown 2020, Bainbridge Island WA - one voice, one year, one island, one eye's view. Collective work of original photos, poetry, and prose reminding us that even in the midst of crisis, there is a bounty of beauty and wonder to bring joy to our hearts and hope to our souls.

When Washington mandated its lockdown, the beauty of spring beckoned. The author decided to capture eclectic scenes during walks and bike rides on Bainbridge Island. It provided her with a reason to be outside in nature. In the midst of winter's dark days, still isolating, still fearing infection, she challenged herself again - to share the photos taken at the beginning of Covid and describe what those captured moments meant now, reflecting on how the pandemic had changed her life priorities. Making this book and immersing herself in the process has been her survival lifeline during Covid.

To help you visualize the context for these moments, Bainbridge Island, the size of Manhattan, is a 35-minute ferry ride from Seattle. It is a small-town, rural community of about 26,000 people, and blessed with considerable access to walking trails, boating opportunities, and bicycle paths. The island is a favorite getaway for mainland locals and tourists visiting Seattle.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"What a wonderland of beauty your book captures. A thought-provoking, soothing experience to be savored."

"Your book is incredible. I hardly have words. Stunning and interesting photos. Your insights, reflections and poems really drew me in. Such a beautiful piece of work!!"

"Shows what can happen when a person chooses to do one thing for whatever reason and then courageously follows the paths that appear from that choice."

"By the end of the book the reader has learned many things and now has more topics, thoughts, areas of life to ponder. Most of all we feel we know you a little and appreciate the strength you exhibit to show yourself to the world."

"This could be a wonderful travel guide for Bainbridge Island. I want you to take me to the 'Listen' spot."

About the Author

A native of the Pacific Northwest, Melody Mociulski was especially drawn to photography and creative writing in 2008 when she started traveling to SE Asia each year for international development work. Through daily posting of blogs and photos capturing country news, she developed a love for this form of creative expression. Through visual and written accounts, she endeavored to convey the beauty and pain witnessed in these amazing people and cultures. Melody would say she is more adept at photographic composition than the technical aspects. Viewfindings represents Melody's first attempt at poetry. Although intimidated by poetry at first, she now eagerly embraces it. Melody hopes you will enjoy Viewfindings as much as she enjoyed making it.

Covid 19 Quiet Times

Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2021

When I picked up this book, I assumed it would be another sentimental meditation directing ‘think this way’ or ‘try harder’ with a backdrop of Covid-19 despair. That is not this book. Rather this is a book about quiet time - the unexpected quiet time during the Covid 19 pandemic. The short reflections are calming, thought-provoking and educational. Most delightful are the photographs paired with the reflections. I frequently asked myself, why did the author choose this photograph to go with that text? My favorite pairings are Magnificence with Mt. Rainer, Wonder with the goat, and Peace with - well, I don’t want to give a spoiler. I highly recommend this book to read now and to read again later as a reminder of the Covid 19 quiet times.

A truly beautiful work

Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2021

One of the entries in Viewfindings entitled 'Balance' explores the nature of symmetry and equilibrium in the world around us, and this book is a perfect reflection of such qualities. It manages to explore the depths of the uncertainty and somberness of this moment we're living through, while leaving an abundance of space to revel in the joy and light which continues to sustain us. Part travelogue, part memoir, part book of sonnets, Viewfindings brings us into the interior world of the author in all her openness and curiosity, while simultaneously pushing us out into the greater world, beckoning us to look more closely at that which surrounds us, and to simply sit in it. Very highly recommended.

A feast for the heart and soul

Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2021

Viewfindings' intimate collection of reflection, poetry, local history, and heartwarming photography combines to create a superb collection of beauty, intelligence, wisdom, experience, optimism and resilience.

The subjects and descriptions Melody shares are all tangible and each provides unique distinction throughout the world in which we live. Melody's poems are wonderfully meditative as readers are able to feel embraced by creative descriptions and engaging words.

The history of Melody's community is fascinating and is just one component which richly adds to the unique nature of Viewfindings. Viewfindings is a feast for the heart and soul, and our copy will have center stage on our living room table as Viewfindings and the written and photographic gems within create imagination, peacefulness, gratitude and delight from cover to cover.

This beautiful and honest book feeds my soul. I devoured it in one sitting and then slowly savored it the next time around. I will be purchasing more to give to my friends.
