Although no solid plans are in place, in the not to distant future we’ll have to move. The decision was made years ago as soon as our 4 children were all settled many miles from the place we call home, the north east of England. Time dictates it will happen sooner than later. My daughter was born in Bristol, because of work, and we had spent a very happy 3 years there, but for family reasons we moved back home soon after she was born 38 years ago. When we leave one of my biggest regrets will be leaving this coast, it’s Beauty and it’s drama, but one thing I’ll not regret is that I didn’t miss capturing moments like these.
Normally, by early May I would be packing my bags, looking forward to working another Summer season in Norway and Scandinavia, guiding tourists around and showing them the beauty of those countries. So it feels strange to be at home with no plans to head north in the near future. Last year I did a new tour for my company to the Lofoten islands. This is a photographers paradise, and even though I was working I was still able to catch this lovely view of Sakrisøya on a beautiful August day. Four years ago I got a winter shot here: www.flickr.com/photos/adelheids-pictures/26078807660
Yesterday, I went to the Cincinnati Zoo for the 1st time since Harambe's Death. I went to his enclosure, and his group was out, which was Him and 2 females. Now just 2 females. I notice that they seemed very quiet and keeping to themselves. I caught this image of one of females. Is it just me, or does it not look as if she is grieving?
Titled. "Missing Harambe".

Strang and moving mesage seen on a walll in the center of the city; very artistic too
Having left for Iceland just as Covid-19 started to hit the UK, it's now been over six weeks since I saw any work colleagues or friends, chums, pals: whatever they want to call themselves.
I'm missing the chance to meet up again, and the freedom to go to places like Dinorwic and Dinorwig.
I'm caught here looking wistfully out at the rain, looking for salvation from the skies and watching out for the Starlink satellites. But even that isn't happening. Three nights I've watched now. Nothing.
But we must be patient. We've got to be strong together and self-disciplined or this awful threat will plague us forever.

Another one o' them there reflections.
This is a pretty dark track, that's JD for you, but I can't help think of the 'bag' scene from Django! If you haven't seen it, here it is.
Tarantino's dark humour!
No fun ringing in the new year alone. Hoping you are back home soon...

Salzburg, literally "Salt Fortress, is the capital city of the State of Salzburg and fourth-largest city in Austria. In 2020, it had a population of 156,872.
The town is located on the site of the former Roman settlement of Iuvavum. Salzburg was founded as an episcopal see in 696 and became a seat of the archbishop in 798. Its main sources of income were salt extraction and trade and, at times, gold mining. The fortress of Hohensalzburg, one of the largest medieval fortresses in Europe, dates from the 11th century. In the 17th century, Salzburg became a centre of the Counter-Reformation, where monasteries and numerous Baroque churches were built.
Salzburg's historic centre is thus renowned for its Baroque architecture and is one of the best-preserved city centers north of the Alps, with 27 churches. It was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1996. The city has three universities and a large population of students. Tourists also visit Salzburg to tour the historic centre and the scenic Alpine surroundings. Salzburg was the birthplace of the 18th-century composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Because of its history, culture, and attractions, Salzburg has been labeled Austria's "most inspiring city." (Wikipedia)
