Bruce is a city dog from Berkeley, CA. He is back visiting my brother and his grandmother.
Me thinks he would like to go home

Looking out onto Georgian bay from the most Northern section of the Bruce Peninsula. Shot using a Polarizing filter to eliminate the reflection on the nearby water.
Thanks for viewing!
Bruce Bay. Every few years I come here and it has been different everytime, except for the rain. Another tiny town of less than 35 people.
Every so often I like to get a picture of my three best friends together, of course this is not as simply as it sounds, the lay down and stay isn't a problem, but to get all three looking at me is :))
In the first comment box you can see their group images from previous years
Take care, stay safe and have fun this bank holiday (for those of you in the UK) have a wonderful week ahead my flickr friends !!
HAPPY SLIDERS SUNDAY !!
Last Sliders Sunday, I uploaded "Dying on the Vine"
and it proved quite popular. I took THAT photo on 16 October 2023.

Then on 18 December 2023, I took THIS photo of another vine
in a different location. Two months later, its leaves were still beautiful.
The leaves on the other vine were long gone.
With a nod to Bruce Willis and his series of "Die Hard" movies,
my caption here was a natural choice.
Instead of being espaliered, this vine had stuck itself securely
to a white stucco wall. Lovely shade makes it look gray here.
HSS work;
I cropped to 10x8 for composition. For requisite HSS drama,
I did heavy sliding via saturation, dehaze and luminance-sharpening.
Location: Inner front wall, Gottesacker (cemetery), Riehen BS Switzerland.

One last reflection image from last weekend's trip to the Herring Run. Most of these leaves are gone now. Just a week later, all these trees are bare.

Now that we are staying even closer to home for our hiking, we have taken on the goal of completing the Sydenham section of the Bruce Trail. Much of it runs right through our city limits or just outside. We have hiked many parts of it over the years. By doing our best to go from end to end and not missing a single section, we have discovered little treasures along the way that are new to us. I love that a lot of the trail is rugged and untamed.
We have a trail book with maps that are out of date in some spots due to some land acquisitions by the Bruce Trail Conservancy. That means parts of the trail that were along a road are now in the woods or fields. But we also use the phone app which is more accurate and it also warns of temporary closures which have happened due to COVID. Tons of people have come up from the bigger cities to walk these trails and they have often overwhelmed parking lots or left too much garbage! We also had to be careful of hunting season. However, on this day all was perfect, including the weather.
When the maps or apps don't work, we have the white blazes to show us the way. It can be like a scavenger hunt at times to find the next blaze. But that is half the fun. You never know what is around the next bend! BTW, we have officially hiked half of the 120 km!
This is one of my favourite sections of the Bruce Trail that we are responsible for as Trail Captains. It is the view you get just as you crawl out of the crevice. I love the character of the those trees ahead. This whole section of trail is varied and moderately difficult to hike with a lot of rugged ups and downs. It has a small waterfall in the spring and two crevices to walk through. Our job is to inspect the trail seasonally for fallen trees on the trail. If we can remove them on our own, we will. If the tree is too big, we let the work crew know so they can bring in heavier equipment. In the past two years, we have repainted the trails blazes and replaced a few signs. We check for overhanging branches that might interfere with a hiker who is carrying a backpack but we cannot take too much of the canopy out. If the vegetation along the trail starts to cover the path, we will cut away some of it. Again, the trail needs to be free of hazards and cleared enough to be passable without making it too wide or upsetting the natural balance of nature. We are so happy to write in all our reports so far that we never see any garbage. Happy Tree-mendous Tuesday!
That's Eddie's "happy" face! Ridiculous lighting conditions for the photogs (and a b*tch to post) as Iron Maiden arrives - Capt. Bruce Dickinson at the controls - to kick off their world tour in Fort Lauderdale.

December 10, 2005 - Holiday Party. Scott Services Bruce Pt. I. Wanna learn more about Scott? Listen to his crazy podcast--Starcast ...Drama, Dreams, Music, & More.
This bronze statue of Robert the Bruce by Alan Beattie Herriot stands outside Marischal College, on Aberdeen’s Broad Street. King Robert I (1274 – 1329), was King of Scots from 1306 until his death. He fought successfully during his reign to restore Scotland to an independent kingdom. Robert the Bruce had a strong connection with Aberdeen, giving six different charters to the city over his lifetime.
Inside the Bender movie theatre in Transnistria, a poster of Bruce Willis guards the elaborate Art Deco interior. I must say, as movie theatres go I've never seen one quite as ornate.
The Dnister River marks the border between Moldova and the breakaway state of Transnistria. However, Transnistria means "other side of the Dnister [river]", but since to the residents they're on 'this' side they call the region Pridnistrovie, meaning "Before the Dnister [river]". This part of Moldova want independence and separation from Moldova, to keep their Russian identity, but they don't want to part of Russia or have any links to The Kremlin. There has border control to enter the region but everything is so friendly, despite us being so close to the Ukrainian border.
