About the size of your fist, this tiny Elf Owl is the smallest owl in the desert southwest. It's on display live in an outdoor naturalized setting at the Sonoran Desert Museum, Tucson, Arizona, USA.

 

Somewhat uncommon and local.

Photogenic Mink photographed at British Wildlife Centre. He always does his best to give me his good side!!

 

A few wee facts about this voracious hunter. Minks are well adapted to swimming and prefer watery habitats, while weasels tend to avoid the water and prefer grassy habitats.

About the length and diameter of the first two bones in your little finger, a tiny Snowberry Clearwing Moth backs out of a Bee Balm floret after sampling its sweet nectar. These creatures are amazing as they go about their business with stealth and precision. And... they fly FAST.

Feel the vibe

Feel the terror

Feel the pain

It's driving me insane

I can't fake

For God's sake why am I driving in the wrong lane

Trouble is my middle name

But in the end I'm not too bad

Can someone tell me if it's wrong to be so mad about you

Mad about you

Mad

Are you the fishy wine who will give me a headache in the morning

Or just a dark blue land mine that will explode without a decent warning

Give me all your true hate and I'll translate it in our bed

Into never seen passion, never seen passion

That's why I am so mad about you

Mad about you

Mad

Trouble is your middle name

But in the end you're not too bad

Can someone tell me if it's wrong to be so mad about you

Mad about you

Mad about you

Mad about you

Mad

Give me all your true hate and I'll translate it in your bed

Into never seen passion

That is why I am so mad about you

Mad about you

Mad about you

Mad about you

Mad about you

Mad about you

Mad about you

Happy New Year to everyone :)

Nella via, illuminata dagli alberi addobbati e dalle vetrine dei negozi, la gente camminava frettolosa, come formiche vicino ad un formicaio. La neve, caduta nella notte e gelata subito per la tramontana, scrocchiava sotto le scarpe, altra ne scendeva dall'inizio della mattinata.

-Buon Natale- dicevano tutti, -buon Natale, signora Davis; buon Natale, signor Gunther, a lei e alla sua deliziosa mogliettina!-

Fu allora che Natale Sanders, uscendo dall'osteria con un discreto tasso alcolemico nel sangue, non poté fare a meno di esclamare:

-Ma insomma, per Dio, perché tutti mi chiedono di stare buono; mica ho fatto mai niente di male, io...!-

Una signora, con le mani infilate nel manicotto di pelliccia, udita la frase, si rivolse all'uomo attempato e gli parlò: -Temo ci sia un equivoco, signore!-

E Natale, abbastanza rassicurato, appoggiandosi ad un estintore per non cadere sulla neve ghiacciata, rispose:

- Meno male, cominciavo un tantino a preoccuparmi! Oggigiorno, di questi tempi, si finisce in galera per un niente !-

Something about a southern girl

Make me feel right

In a Mississippi morning

She's an angel in flight

In a blink of an eye

She'll be out of your sight

We know full well there's just time

So is it wrong to dance this line?

If your heart was full of love

Could you give it up?

 

'Cause what about, what about angels?

They will come, they will go

Make us special

 

Don't give me up

Don't give... me up

 

How unfair, it's just our luck

Found something real that's out of touch

But if you'd searched the whole wide world

Would you dare to let it go?

 

'Cause what about, what about angels?

They will come, they will go, make us special

 

Don't give me up

Don't give... me up

 

'Cause what about, what about angels?

They will come, they will go

Make us special

 

It's not about, not about angels, angels

Little Owl about to take flight.

 

The Little Owl is not a native species, having been introduced to Britain in the 1870s, but it appears to have occupied a vacant niche without having any detrimental impact on other species. Numbers and breeding distribution increased gradually, reaching an estimated breeding population of between 4,000 and 8,500 pairs at the time of Project Barn Owl. The current distribution extends across England, north to the Scottish borders and west into Wales, where it is largely confined to Anglesey and to eastern parts of the country. There have been very few records from Ireland.

 

Pairs remain on their breeding territories throughout the year, with territorial calling evident during autumn – when young birds are searching for breeding territories – and again during spring. Small cavities are favoured for breeding, these often located within hedgerow trees or the walls of old agricultural buildings. Favoured nesting chambers tend to be located some distance from the cavity entrance and with little daylight reaching them. The male will often perch close to the nest cavity while his mate is incubating her clutch of eggs.

 

Little Owls often hunt from a perch, taking small mammals and large invertebrates, including earthworms, cockchafers and other beetles. There is evidence to suggest that breeding success is linked to the availability of small mammals, though some pairs evidently do well on other prey; a pair breeding on the island of Skomer, for example, took a large number of Storm Petrels (Courtesy BTO).

Knowing a bit more about photography makes it easier to understand how and why some oil paintings, say the impressionist, abstract or even watercolour paintings, came into being.

I am very excited about the update of Luanes World @ Slice of heaven:) I have been slaving all day to give the sim a spring make-over, and for the big part the work is finished:)

Where Luanes Magical World @ Morning Glow is all about magic, mystery and fairytales, Luanes World @Slice of Heaven is a 'normal' but very romantic sim with a lot of nice spots all around.

Come see for yourself, and please take a lot of pics on both sims - post them here :)

Male Mallard about to land at the Las Gallinas pond after sunrise ✔️✔️

About 14,000 years ago, cataclysmic floods scoured out the Columbia River Gorge. Early visionaries engineered an inspired drive along its towering walls. As America’s first scenic highway and a National Historic Landmark, this 70-mile/113-kilometer route is indeed the “King of Roads.”

 

The Highway was left partially intact after Interstate 84 was built, with the middle section cut into pieces or partially destroyed. Efforts are underway to create vehicle-free paths for cyclists and pedestrians, transforming the abandoned sections into the Historic Columbia River Highway State Trail.

 

In keeping with the beauty of it's surroundings, the Columbia River Highway builders made sure that the man-made structures along the road were equally beautiful. You'll see lovely stonework and concrete arches along your driving tour, the remains of the historic highway's original safety rails, turnouts, and bridges large and small.

 

in order to give the best ....it's passing through you more than you're creating it.

you're not the flower, but the vase which holds the flower.

A fellow photographer and friend from the UK wanted to learn more about masking in Photoshop, and Zoom to the rescue. I started with one of my shots that never thrilled me, but thought it was a good simple shot to start with. As far as the dime a dozen shots of '55 Chevys go, IMO, it was just OK, and it's color was not my favorite. Kind of a peach color, ergo the title. I showed him the power of the new Object Selection tool in Photoshop, and if any further cleanup is required a few other tools can be used. However, typically I use the Polygonal tool for that. I went on to tell him that if you are selecting the subject (car here) but want to do something with the rest of the image, (the background) and not the subject, you must click Inverse before doing any of that. I told him that if you are going to spray out the background like above, you can pick any color you want, but a color already in the image usually works well, or as in the case here, a complimentary color. Maybe a bit of a stretch here, and being that the cars color is in the red family, the compliment of red is green, and therefore my reasoning for going with a shade of green. So, as I'm working my way through this demo process with him my original feelings about not liking the image started to change, and I actually kind of like it now. I think it's proof as to how, with a little extra play, you can turn a mediocre image into something a little more special. So, the takeaway here is don't throw in the towel on those "so so" images, there just may be hope for them.
