Heavy rain here today
I had of course to go for a hike in this weather
As long as I have good clothing I think it is awesome to hike under these conditions ☁
Majestic isnt it!
This is the view from Hotel Ullensvang in Sørfjorden on the west coast of Norway
What a trip we had!

Happy New Year to All my Flickr friends and Family!
Who knew? I first heard the term "bluetiful" on the Great Christmas light fight this year. In doing a quick Google search I found that Crayola's new blue crayon for 2017 was named "Bluetiful." It replaced the retiring yellow "Dandelion." I guess it's been a few years since I peeked inside a box of crayons!
Possibly the cutest bluejay ever. It almost looks like a juvenile but this was shot in March so that would not be possible.
Pretty cool coming up from the coast to the mountains and see this glory
Picnic here was a pure joy
Aiko had a blast
Can you spot him?
He gives the perspective, doesn't he
He is in the middle of the photo, posing for me
12 months ago we were in Macroom getting our car's NCT done & I took a photo of this shop in a very different state. See below for the photo. I'm glad they've retained the Penny Farthing. Uploaded for Smile on Saturday group (Blue-tiful)
Thank you for the many birthday wishes..I am so busy at work that I almost forgot it was the big 60! Wishing you all a great week ahead...Thank you very much for viewing my photo ! I truly appreciate any faves and comments ! 😊
I tried to recreate the amazing light in my 'Go Green' shot with some of my blue bottles. But different time of year, different light, different tones and transparency of the blues = different results!
Taken for this weeks (02-09-17) Smile on Saturday 'Blue-tiful' theme.
And another one for my glass series :-)
I hope you all have lots of smiles this week, and plenty of laughs too :-D

A blue jay waiting out a snow storm in a cluster of pines. With all of the tracks I see in the snow, there are many critters that take shelter here. A pine forest is one of my favorite places to be in a snow storm too. It's a quiet peaceful place to sit and listen to nature.
"Sky's The Limit" is a song from 1990 by Soul and R&B band Tony! Toni! Toné!, and when I processed this photo, that old song started to play in my head. What also immediately came to mind was the very last scene of the final episode of "Star Trek Next Generation" (one of my most-favoured TV shows of all time) where TNG's main characters meet for their regular poker game, and Cpt. Picard joins them. His words "Five-card stud, nothing wild... and the sky's the limit..." are TNG's final sentence.
But enough of this fangirl stuff. "Sky's the limit" is certainly true for that bird up there soaring Berlin's skies freely. But what about the other birds in the frame, the ones you can't see? Because the "net/mesh and steel frame" in my image belongs to two large aviaries at the Kranzler Eck's patio (the former Café Kranzler was West Berlin's most well-known café). Despite being located at the busy heart of City West, the patio is a pretty relaxed place with not too many visitors, and the aviaries are spacious and also offer enough shelter for about 100 birds (mostly parakeets, but not only) who greet the visitors with quite some noise.
Processed in... well, Color Efex is what I remember because I did the finishing touches in that programme today, but this image has been a work in progress for a while so I don't recall all the single steps (as usual).
Please note that the info on the lens is wrong. I had used my Laowa 7.5mm F/2 lens, but had forgotten to change the lens info settings in the camera, so it still "thought" I'm using the 6mm lens which I'd borrowed earlier from my Mom, magrit k..
Wishing you a beautiful second half of the week, dear Flickr friends!
Another bluetiful bird I found at the National Aviary...Thank you very much for viewing my photo ! I truly appreciate any faves, comments and awards! 🐦
I did
It's a huge chair, I didn't even have my feet on the ground while enjoying the sunset
Yet another sunset with Mark, what a nice hike we had!
