Los últimos tardes y noches que tenían duchas de lluvia. Los lirios han aparecido para agradecer la lluvia por el comienzo de una nueva temporada de hacernos sonreír. Con tantas cosas que nos impiden sonreír en el mundo de hoy, es importante recordar que la naturaleza puede volver a enfocarnos para disfrutar y sonreír ante su belleza.

 

The last few evenings and nights we had rain showers. The lilies have popped up to say thanks for the rain for the beginning of a new season of making us smile. With so many things that are keeping us from smiling happening in the world today, it's important to remember that nature can bring us back into focus to enjoy and smile at its beauty.

 

Le ultime sere e notti abbiamo avuto docce a pioggia. I gigli sono spuntati per dire grazie per la pioggia per l'inizio di una nuova stagione per farci sorridere. Con così tante cose che ci impediscono di sorridere accadendo oggi nel mondo, è importante ricordare che la natura può riportarci a fuoco per goderci e sorridere alla sua bellezza.

 

Nas últimas tardes e noites tivemos pancadas de chuva. Os lírios apareceram para agradecer a chuva pelo início de uma nova estação nos fazendo sorrir. Com tantas coisas que nos impedem de sorrir acontecendo no mundo de hoje, é importante lembrar que a natureza pode nos trazer de volta ao foco para apreciar e sorrir sua beleza.

It's a new dawn

It's a new day

It's a new life

For me

And I'm feeling good

 

THE ANIMAL CRUSADE

 

One day all the sties and burrows opened

And out came the cave-bear the mammoth the seafaring

cormorant, that poetic diving bird, the white-headed vulture

the rock-goat from the mountains, the sea unicorn

You could see by their snouts that they meant business

You could hear by their flapping wings and their burr

They had thrown off their humility, cast down their yoke

once imposed by Adam’s secretive hero

the one with the garden

They were, to cut a long story short, fed up

And the morals of the shotgun had been cast off

the flayed skin of flight had faded

The viper walked tall and the swine wore polaroid glasses

that lent him pleasant looks. The beavers

gnawed down telegraph poles and so cut off any form of communication

Predictably enough, the lion led the way black black

as black gold and gold-coloured as deep black

It was a magnificent procession, blinding to the eye

At the back the unicorn reported as missing, the dodo the passenger pigeon

as well as various viruses and the elated spermatozoids

So the holy animals

travelled the holy world

 

And do you know how or why?

Oh no, they just went travelling, they didn’t have a flag!

Sometimes ripped up laws out of sheer happiness

or bled a city dry

Now and then trampled on a Jesus

or struck down a prophet or a princess

They were beginning to get tired

Haste no longer necessary

The one day’s deities left the fire

I am always amazed at the freshness of new Hydrangea blossoms. They promise new beginnings, a fresh start, a new day.

 

"The chief beauty about time is that you cannot waste it in advance.

The next year, the next day, the next hour are lying ready for you,

as perfect, as unspoiled, as if you had never wasted or misapplied a single moment in all your life.

You can turn over a new leaf every hour if you choose."

~ Arnold Bennett

It is finely the beginning of waterfall season here in Minnesota which is always a very exciting time to me. I am reminded of how Christ makes everything new and breathes life into our dead lungs. For all things are made for Him and through Him which is stated in Colossians chapter 1. I am thankful for springtime and for warmer temperatures that are on the way. Have a blessed week everybody!

Take a quick picture beforehand and Then peel the orange.

My camera has been in its case and I, for the most part, in a chair - just waiting for spring. The bears in Alberta and I definitely in hibernation mode this winter.

A difficult month with record breaking temperatures e.g. -35c -

 

Wishing you all....a HAPPY FIRST DAY OF SPRING. Hope we all have good weather and lots of buds (beginnings).

I'm sure most of you will have noticed by now that I'm shooting different subjects/styles. I love LE seascape work and the peace and tranquility that comes with being near water, but I'm feeling the urge to rebel and try my hand at other subjects (hence my deliberate move to explore other avenues of photographic expression). The tilt-shift/focus work I've been trying lately is really starting to resonate with me and I'm curious where this path will take me.

 

All comments, critiques and feedback both positive and negative welcome.

 

I'm sorry my dear Flickr Friends, comments posting has been turned off for this upload....

Thanks to George Pitarys who reminds me today with his uploads, the fact that Action Red once ruled the Baie des Chaleurs part of Gaspésie.

 

We are located, on this cold Saturday morning, on the old timber bridge supporting the 5e Rand Ouest, a narrow path cut straight thru the deep forest north of New-Richmond and waiting for the first ever windmill blades train over the Société du Chemin de Fer de la Gaspésie trackage.

The average solitude and tranquility of the forest were quickly interrupted by three ALCo 251 prime movers, working full blast against gravity and the 1.4% grade with 6400 foot of train on the drawbar. The old timber bridge was shaken by the deafening exhaust of 3600 horsepower as the head end slowly top off the grade half a mile from it.

From now, the 60 or so mile-long chase have just began.

 

Windmill blade trains are no longer operating on the SCFG since a shifting in the size of the the blades build LM Windpower plant near Gaspé was now too long to be put on railcars.

SCFG 1819 will become the first of the small RS18u fleet to be painted in the SP Black Widow-inspired paint scheme a few weeks after this picture.

The old bridge over 5e Rang, closed to thru trafic since a few years, was torn down somewhere back in 2021.

 

But the show remain the same on the Gaspésie railway.

Patient Trust

 

Above all, trust in the slow work of God.

We are quite naturally impatient in everything to reach the end without delay.

We should like to skip the intermediate stages.

We are impatient of being on the way to something unknown, something new.

 

And yet it is the law of all progress

that it is made by passing through some stages of instability—

and that it may take a very long time.

 

And so I think it is with you;

your ideas mature gradually—let them grow,

let them shape themselves, without undue haste.

Don’t try to force them on,

as though you could be today what time

(that is to say, grace and circumstances acting on your own good will)

will make of you tomorrow.

 

Only God could say what this new spirit

gradually forming within you will be.

Give Our Lord the benefit of believing

that his hand is leading you,

and accept the anxiety of feeling yourself

in suspense and incomplete.

 

-Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, Hearts on Fire

New Beginning - I hadn't photographed Bald Eagles at all in 2022, so it was a nice surprise to see this one cruising by the hills while I was photographing waterbirds. I've always wanted to capture a photo of a Bald Eagle against the green/chaparral hillside, so it was nice to check that off during a gap in the rains.

This particular male's mate has gone missing. I hope he is able to find a female and nest successfully in the near future.

Species: Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus)

Equipment: Canon EOS R5 + EF 100-400mm IS II + EF 1.4x Extender III
