Un tocco di natura rende affine il mondo intero.
One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.

A very beautiful flower, the Festiva Maxima, is almost pure white when fully open with traces of magenta/red at the centre. The petals are thin and fragile and should therefore be handled gently. There is a commonly believed myth that peony flowers need ants to eat up the sticky coating in order to open and that is cited as the reason why cut buds often don't open. In fact while peonies offer the ants healthy dinners they don't need their help. When their buds reach the "Marshmallow" stage, like this bud will in a day or so, still firm on the outside but soft to the touch like marshmallow, they will open whether cut and put in a vase, or wrapped in moistened paper and kept in the fridge - one way to have cut peonies late into July.
A different approach to processing the same image as the previous one gives totally different feeling to all...I think this is what is meant by magic of photoshop, as we 'act' upon things almost as painters do....b.mikic
Long Tailed Tit (Aegithalos caudatus) I've been watching a pair of long tailed tits building a nest. They have finished the moss and leaves stage and now they're on to the luxury finishing touches.

I will be on my trip to Jakarta for two weeks, I might slow on response.
Have a nice Weekend my friends....see you soon.
This is one more image I captured of the least bittern out in the open but it is showing a little more of her coloring than the first one I posted. So seldom are they out in the open that I could not keep my finger off the shutter button !!!
Wishing you a beautiful and blessed day

December's wintery breath is already clouding the pond, frosting the pane, obscuring summer's memory...

Listen: one - Tina Dico
one
one touch can fill a life of longing
not much is so much more than nothing
yeah, all you need is
one
an open smile to win you over
one single step will bring you closer
yeah all it takes is one
and when you’re running for cover
and you feel the sky falling down upon you
and when it feels like forever
since you’ve seen the face of someone who loves you
then one is all that you need
all that you need to keep you warm
is all that you need
all that you need to move you on
it’s all that you need
all you need is
one
one word to fill a room of silence
a hand to offer you some guidance
yeah all you need is
one
a moment long enough to notice
that everything’s stepped into focus
yeah, all it takes is one
and when you’ve running from questions
and it seems like uncertainty controls you
and when you looking for answers
in the eyes of somebody who knows you
then one is all that you need
all that you need to keep you warm
all that you need
all that you need to move you on
is all that you need
all that you need to get you home
all that you need
all you need is one
Thanks again for posing, Mr. McB! 😊
Some things blow us away, some gently touch us, notice the fragile touch of the 2 bolts. I hope this finds you well, hug your loved ones, and remember, God loves you!!

Hent VIII — Yann Tiersen
Selaou kentoc’h a ran
An traoù eget an dud
Trouz an tan o c’hwezhañ
Ar c’harzh o tifronkañ
Dindan an avel yud
Dour ar stêr o ruilhal
Hag ar skluz o krozal
A-dreuz o boud, me 'glev
O tont 'vel un heklev
Eus don ar C’hantvedoù
Mouezhioù va Hendadoù

Es war so ein schöner Abend auf diesem tollen Feld.... Falken überall um mich rum.. Hier ein junges weibchen bei der Landung... Kein Erfolg mit der Maus also versuchen wir Grashüpfer ;-)
Wünsche euch eine schöne Restwoche
Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
― Leo F. Buscaglia
I haven't been able to be online for several days so I know I've missed some of your beautiful images. I'll do my best to catch up with today's images as soon as I can. Happy Sunday! :)
