Der gestrige Tag war wohl doch ein bisschen zu viel für mich, Erkältungstechnisch gab es einen Rückschlag.
Ohrenschmerzen, starker Reizhusten und Atemnot haben mir den Schlaf geraubt.
Ohne meinen Tascheninhalator wäre ich im warsten Sinne des Wortes "Atemlos durch die Nacht" gewandelt ...

One of my last purchases of 2018 (Hot to the Touch Bellamy Blue) and my first arrival 2019 (Amplified Bellamy Blue)! 💕
Due to a heavy bronchitis this is my first out-of-bed activity since it had knocked me out about 1 week ago... and now I feel knocked out again. 😁
The Amplified Bellamy Blue was quiet a spontaneous purchase. I originally did not like his lips and outfit so much and was not sure about his hair. But after removing his original "lipstick" and putting on Nigel North's "Come live with me"-outfit I like him nearly as much as I like my Hot To The Touch Bellamy!
I am also playing a TAG game with this picture, I was tagged by dear Simone Laurenta, vielen Dank, meine Liebe! 😊😀😍
The first doll of the year, as I have already written, my Amplified Bellamy Blue (I am not too lazy to take a new picture but don’t feel fit enough yet). 😍😍

This was my fourth attempt at photographing Ballarat. The first time was just before the pandemic started and our group booking had to be cancelled. The second was when travel was once again allowed, 2.5yrs later, but I cancelled it because it was set to rain the entire weekend and as you know I do not have a waterproof camera. The third time I did actually get to Ballarat, but it defied the meteorologists and ended up raining most of the weekend so I couldn't take my camera out in it. On this fourth occasion, the weather was again inclement and I had bronchitis!
Around 5pm the second night there, after sleeping early the first night and most of the next day, I finally made it to the wondrous Lake Wendouree.
As you can see, the clouds started off rather ominously and overcast, however it actually turned out to be a rather pleasant evening and I took my time walking around to find a spot for sunset. The walk is so beautiful that I actually have more images than I could ever possibly hope to use - which is a lovely problem for a photographer to have!
I had planned to get up for sunrise but due to my health decided against it, opting instead to sleep in before catching the train back to Naarm. I'm glad for this decision because when I awoke at 8am there was a thick fog all around so there would not have been a sunrise and the lake, rather than have a whimsical amount of mist rising from it, would have been invisible!

She had chronic bronchitis, a large lung mass, and now a severe case of pneumonia. She had been on the strongest antibiotic they could give her and it wasn't helping. She had stopped eating and drinking and had to be force fed. She was having such a hard time breathing....and there was nothing else to do. Her passing was very peaceful; I was there stroking her head and telling her I loved her.
I will miss her adorable little face peeking up at me, and her little purring body on top of my head at night. I will miss her sweet disposition and how she didn't have a mean bone in her body, and how brave she was. I will just miss her for a very long time. She will always be in my heart.
Me and Robert, our houseguest. I was exhausted, but staying up just long enough to welcome the New Year! Robert left right after this photo, to hang out with a younger crowd :-)
December and January were sick months around here. I was sick with a horrible allergy cough, that was actually Bronchitis and then we ALL took turns with norovirus. Ugh!!!! We didn't have our family christmas until the middle of January.
Now Strep Throat AND the Flu combined is going around. Claira & Indigo's 16 year old Uncle,Dillon, had Strep AND the Flu 2 weeks ago. Claira just came down with Strep Throat. Hope you are all okay and staying healthy and warm.
***** Now I'm on a 2 week vacation!!!! ********
A restful vacation involving carpal tunnel surgery at the beginning :-)
Had the surgery Tuesday morning and then slept for 3 days! I think I was way behind on sleep, don't you?
My friend Erik received a Hasselblad for Christmas. Here he is taking it for a spin along Fort Steven's jetty.
I've spent the past day and a half editing images (while resting my voice, as a bout of bronchitis left me with laryngitis)... of the 30 or so sweeping landscapes, waterfalls, lush forests, shining sunsets and snowy peaks... this is the photo that appealed to me most, in terms of posting something. What does that say about me? Ah well, I like it.
Taken with my Hasselblad 500 C/M.
From a heavy breath, bronchitis, to a fast running nose.
It's enough now.
So please tell my back to be silent and I need a very long good sleep.
It's enough.
Something different from my normal style i know, did this when I was feeling pretty rough with Bronchitis not sure I like it now but thought I would share it as it is a bit different from most of whats on my Stream
Dug out of the Snow, Saw a Doctor, I have Bronchitis.
Winter is looking just great, NOT!!! Cough, Cough, Cough.....

One of the natural wonders of this beauty is hidden under the ground of Safranbolu. Bulak (Mencilis) Cave is 8 km distance from the town located northwest of the village of Bulak. The total length of the cave is 6042 meters and it’s formed of 3 floors. As the cave is entered, you are welcomed by the refreshing coolness. After you achieve to get to the main gallery there is a small underground river dominated by magnificent colors, a waterfall and two separate lakes, the structure of natural beauty dazzles the guests. Safranbolu is well known for richness of water resources; the water from the waterfall streams down from 15 meter high and it is known as the water mixing in to the soil and comes back out in to the earth between the rocks. At Byzantine and Ottoman times a branch of this cave was the source of waterway leading to the city center. Today, the shortness of breath of the Mencilis cave is assumed to be good for diseases such as asthma and bronchitis.
Ribwort Plaintains (Plantago lanceolata) and a Scarlet Malachite Beetle too? in Durlston Country Park, Dorset
According to Anglo-Saxon folklore, the plantain was one of the nine sacred herbs that readily grew in a variety of locations. With its assortment of medicinal applications, however, ribwort plantain is no longer considered folklore but is counted as an effective herbal remedy. The herb contains a selection of vitamins and minerals that situate it well as a successful treatment and remedy for a wide range of conditions.
Research suggests that the leaf is an effective anti-inflammatory and antibacterial agent. It also has astringent properties. All of these properties combined make plantain one of the most effective herbal remedies for topical treatment of various skin conditions. It is also particularly effective for speeding cell growth and healing wounds, as it contains the chemical allantoin.
Its innate properties make ribwort an effective treatment for an assortment of health conditions. As an astringent, the herb is able to assist in the healing of wounded tissue, haemorrhoids, skin ulcers, and other lesions or sores.
Ribwort is also an effective treatment for a variety of other conditions. Respiratory infection, bronchitis, asthma, and emphysema respond well to treatment with plantain, as it has a demulcent effect. This property also makes it effective for treating urinary tract infections, irritable bowel syndrome, gastritis, diarrhoea, and a host of other conditions.
So; just a weed?
Medicinally, it is used for treating various health ailments such as nervous disorders, epilepsy, bronchitis, asthma, stomach pain, fever, kidney and spleen diseases, liver diseases, wounds, sores, skin conditions, gonorrhea, hemorrhoids, snake bites and syphilis
Found in the eastern half of the United States in wet meadows and flood plains.
From the internet:
White dews（白露Báilù）is the 15th solar term. It begins when the Sun reaches the celestial longitude of 165° and ends when it reaches the longitude of 180°. It more often refers in particular to the day when the Sun is exactly at the celestial longitude of 165°. In the Gregorian calendar, it usually begins around September 7 .
Weather
There is typically autumn weather during Bailu period, when wild geese begin to migrate to the south and birds start to stock food for the long winter time. Hot summer is gone. However, it could be still warm in south where it is usually humid during this period, as the saying goes: "It's unusual to see ten continuous sunny days." The reason is that at this time cold wind blows southward from the north, while warm and moist wind comes from the south, and they meet in the region, resulting in the rain. The locals call it Bailu rain（白露雨Báilù Yǔ）, which is important for the growth of autumn crops in the region.
Lifestyle
This is also the season that people may be exposed to various diseases like nasal disease, asthma, and bronchitis（支气管炎zhīqìguǎn yán）. Too much seafood or cold, spicy, or greasy food may not be good for health, but food containing more vitamins is good for your diet since the weather is getting drier after Bailu.

Previously underprocessed/unseen image from Big M, in February 2010. Bronchitis, ankle deep mud . . . I remember this as being a filthy, miserably cold and wet, yet still fun, night. (Winter junkyard night shooting tip: always bring a spare pair of shoes for the drive home.) Full moon for 1:09, with red/white LED.
Folkloric
• Antiseptic and deodorant: Apply crushed leaves on affected area.
• Cough and asthma: Take decoction of leaves as tea.
• Insect repellent: Burn leaves.
• In other countries, used to combat malaria.
• Used as antiseptic gargle.
• Used for lung infects and bronchitis.
• Oil used for croup and spasmodic throat problems.

Back at the end of February and first of March I attended my cousin's wedding in true Hollywood glamour style at Palm Springs in California. Made a road trip out of it & this was one of the many photos taken. Seen on our return trip around Benson Arizona at sunset. Having taken so many photos it is hard to pick and choose... but hope that y'all enjoy this one from that adventure in February. On the return trip home I and my friend were so sick with major upper respiratory infections, chills, fever, and allergies due to the high off the charts pollen count in the desert. God was with us and helped me to drive and get us home safely only to be in bed for the next two weeks... yucky... beautiful memories but also major blessings as I even had to take my friend to the ER while in New Mexico. They gave her oxygen which helped her to start breathing normal again... y'all had no ideal what was going on but truly we were both blessed to have arrived back at home in Texas without someone coming to rescue us and drive us home (my son told me he was prepared to come get us at any moment). Much praying and prayer warriors along the way that helped pray us through!!! But I am never too sick to take photos of the beauty always around me (when I was in the hospital last year I took pictures of the sunrise through my window)!!! As for my latest bout with bronchitis I am much better and just have an annoying cough!!! The doctor said that is the cough is the last to leave!!! Thanks for your kind thoughts and prayers... you are a blessing in my life!!! Hugs!!!
Did a cold walk this morning in Solleveld, still wheezing from the bronchitis that has kept me from any Christmas celebrations.
Owbridge's Lung Tonic was a cure-all preparation invented in 1874 by Hull pharmacist Walter Owbridge. It was advertised as a cough medicine, a remedy for bronchitis, asthma, consumption (tuberculosis) and all manner of other throat, chest and lung afflictions ,In 1990 the William Sutton Trust took over the site and the now derelict shops adjoining it in Midland Street. At a cost of £1.3 million a new development of 35 flats was built. The façade and clock tower of the old factory were retained to remind us of the past, It is now named Owbridge Court,.
Nearly everyone is sick here with the flu, bronchitis, you name it. So I am taking this captive time to straighten up.
Am dipping into my archives again. Stuck in the house because of weather/bronchitis/lack of energy/lack of motivation -- take your pick. But I am using (some of) my time to hunt up tuts on the web and as I learn and hone new techniques, I realize I have loads of material that I haven't posted yet and that might just benefit from some of these techniques I'm discovering. So, until I can get out and collect new material, here's some stuff that didn't quite make the first cut, but maybe should have.
Been meaning to post these guys for quite some time... Luckily for you, I got Bronchitis! So I had a little time fo dis. Voila.

Hi! Decided to be "ego" (as they say in Swedish) since I'm home sick AGAIN, with bronchitis AGAIN (rather, I never got rid of it so it's back).
So this flower is for me, and anyone else out there who's sick and would like to get better!

I always used to scoff at people who claimed they were "too busy" to post on Flickr. Well, I've certainly gotten a taste of my own medicine this last week, that's for sure! My job has kept me INSANELY busy and exhausted to boot. I've been getting over bronchitis coupled with recovering from weeks of sleep deprivation, and I've had to do this thing called "prioritizing" with all of my other obligations. New territory for me, believe it or not.
I expect things to continue being crazy until my three weeks off begin on 12/22--so I may not be around much until then. After then, though--watch out! :P xx

My cold I've had turned into bronchitis. I'll catch up as I start feeling better. Thanks for all your kind comments and visits to my photostream.
Along with The Crowns at Boallack , the Towenroath Shaft Engine House is one of the most photographed enginehouses of the mining areas of Cornwall .
Perched half way down the cliff , it is quite a sight to see .
Wheal Coates tin mine opened in 1802 and worked until 1889. The image of the Towanroath Shaft engine house, famous on postcards, calendars, and on the telly represents for many the serene beauty of the north Cornish coast. In reality this industrial landscape holds a harsh and austere history.
The life of a Cornish miner was tough.
Working deep underground in cramped and stifling conditions meant that miners were thought of as worn out and old by the time they were 40. The air in the mine was thick with powder smoke, dust and fumes from rock blasting that miners often coughed up black phlegm. Many suffered with bronchitis, silicosis, TB and rheumatism. Accidents caused by explosions, falling, rock falls, drowning and entanglement in machinery were a real danger and took many lives.
Woman were employed as Bal maidens, wielding hammers and crushing copper ore into smaller fragments. By the early nineteenth century over 7000 children were working in Cornish mines, initially above ground doing menial tasks, but when they were twelve they joined their fathers underground.
At its peak Cornish mining employed upwards of 30,000 people. In the mid nineteenth century the industry began to decline, and in 1875 over 10,000 miners left Cornwall to find work overseas. The skills and experience of Cornish mining spread across the world. They also took the pasty with them.
There are over 160 places, across six continents, where Cornish mine workers took their skills, technology and traditions; a truly global heritage. Cornwall and west Devon’s mining landscape, shaped during a period of intense industrial activity, is testimony to one of the greatest periods of economic, technological and social development Britain has ever known.
From 1700 to 1914, the metal mining industry played a vital role in transforming our way of life. It provided essential raw materials to feed the Industrial Revolution in Britain, and pioneered technological developments that helped shape the society we live in today. For example, Richard Trevithick’s advances in steam engine technology – originally motivated by the need to pump water out of mines – ultimately enabled the development of steam trains, changing the world forever through the mass movement of people and goods.
World Heritage
On 13 July 2006 select mining landscapes across Cornwall and West Devon were inscribed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites, placing Cornish mining heritage on a par with international treasures like Machu Picchu, the Taj Mahal and the Great Wall of China.
things are getting back to normal, I have a touch of bronchitis, olivia's ear infection is lingering. I took this last set of photos while they were in the bath behind the door. ah good times, good times.
I am so happy to be caught up on flickr haha and I am not even caught up for real as I have to load the photos onto the diary group page, but I was up late late last night photographing my bare bottom to post to the internet (giggles jesus) and I am still sick and have to sleep. thank you for coming around and I will see you tomorrow.
xoxox
Look what I found shining in the truck when I got in!! I think that's a good omen!
Thank you ALL for thinking of Mom & Dad! Mom is home and doing much better, though she has a long way to go. She says she is full just from eating all the pills she has to take. :) Dad's bronchitis is almost whipped, too. VERY scary to have them both ill. Hopefully we will just keep building on this foundation of "wellness!"
The tomb of James Duncan b. 26 Jan 1796 d 21 Oct 1874.
James Duncan who was born at Ardnahoe Farm on the 16 January 1796, but left the island in the 1820s to go to Valparaiso, Chile where he made his fortune as a copper merchant.
Although never married he had a son, Hilarion, to a local Chilean women, in October 1856. James and Hilarion moved to San Francisco, California shortly after but in 1860 James retired from business and moved to London, though he retained his properties in Chile and California.
He visited Rothesay where he had a house at 6 Mount Stuart Road once a year to visit friends and had visited the island only three weeks prior to his death in London from bronchitis, on the 21 October 1874.
There was a wonderful story at the time that he had died in Valparaiso and that his body had been brought home pickled in a barrel of rum, which had been broached by sailors on the way home.
He was buried in the graveyard at Rothesay and later the copper effigy showing him wearing an Inverness cloak and balmoral, by George Ewing of Glasgow, was added.
How closely this effigy resembles James Duncan is unknown as the artist never actually saw his subject.
James was very generous to the people of Bute, leaving many legacies including:- £2000 to be invested and the interest used to support ten old women belonging to Rothesay; £2000 to be invested and the interest used for the education of Rothesay young men in the form of bursaries; £250 to the Bute Benevolent Fund; £100 to the Certified Industrial School; £100 to the School of Industry and £100 to the Infants School and £100 to the Poor’s School.
Commerce was certainly in the blood as his grand-daughter Marion Duncan Robinson became a commercial begonia grower and world expert.
Rothesay, Isle of Bute, Scotland.
Why? I don't know why. I'm feeling a little better, but all I can think about is how much I missed during our trip. Lindsey and I always have such a good time on trips, but last year she was sick and then this trip I got sick. I saw two different doctors before the trip, I was coughing, had upper chest pressure...both said 'it's a virus, it will run its course'...I knew better, but no one would listen. If you've ever had bronchitis, you know how debilitating it can be...coughing, low grade fevers, hard to take a breath, might as well stay in bed...and it will not 'just run its course'. I'm feeling guilty actually, it should have been a great Christmas, should have been quality time with my daughter and I feel like I ruined it getting sick. I know it wasn't done on purpose, but I've been cooped up in the house since Sunday and I'm going a bit loopy, and to be honest...I don't feel that much better. Not sure how much more I can binge watch on Amazon Prime and Netflix. 'Y', indeed.....
Grady was our neighbors cat. He had been sick for quite awhile and we finally got them to let us take him to the vet last week. They ran tests and decided he had bronchitis and sent him home with meds, He did improve after a couple of days then relapsed day before yesterday. They took him back to the vet and did some ex-rays and found he had cancer in his lungs. They brought him home and prepared themselves to let him go. They told Scott that he could come say goodbye today. So he went over before he left for work. He said goodbye for all of us. He said Grady lifted his tail in recognition. He didn't have the energy for anything else.
He was 14 years old and had been our neighbor for those 14
years. When I sat at my computer he would come to the screen door and talk to me. He started to leave me gifts in the morning and evening. Some whole some with only tails or feathers left. He adopted us shortly after they got dogs next door that didn't like cats. They left food outside for him and our outside cats always visited there. So we fed him also. We got a heated bed for him that we put into a little house. He was an outdoor cat and a sweetheart. He never shut up he was always talking. I would go out and sit with him and he would get in my lap and PURR and I mean PURR.
Rest in Peace my sweet sweet Grady
We will miss you more than you know.

loquat
Brooksville, Florida
Loquat is a plant with high medicinal value and different organs that have been used historically as folk medicines for thousands of years. Loquat extracts have been used for the treatment of cough, chronic bronchitis (CB), inflammation, diabetes, and cancer in Chinese folk medicine. wikipedia
Whilst in Kyabram, we spent an afternoon walking around Horseshoe Bend and Moama Wharf. Living in Melbourne, I didn't realise how close this part of the NSW border was to me, and it's so beautiful.
You may notice in some of these images a dark mark on the tree trunks. This marks the level of the water as it rose up over the immensely tall river banks during the catastrophic floods last year. According to local authorities, the levels rose 94.94 metres (from sea level)! It is truly humbling to see.
One of the off-tracks led to a marsh that had hundreds of white cranes wading through the green plant beds - mesmerising!
On the way back I stopped to watch as dozens of lorikeets, galahs, and cockatoos flew overhead and filled the tree canopy high above.
Then I heard a toot and was flooded with emotion - was it a famous steamer?! A little known geeky fact about me is that I have had a long fascination with Murray River steamboats but have never seen one - this was my opportunity! In the cold evening air, with asthmatic lungs filled with bronchitis, I ran as fast as I could to get back to the Moama Wharf. From atop my perch there I took so many images of an actual steamer as it chugged along down the Murray River. Glorious!
This Egret was contemplating where he could find more fish.. The water on one side looks a little murky , which it was.. They have since drained the pond and added fresh water..
Catch up on comments later..I have been sick with bronchitis..
Have a good one!
Sorry I have been off for so long, I did see the Dr. on Monday and I do indeed have bronchitis and she told me my lungs are really full, so she gave me antibiotics AND an inhaler, I am really a lot better today finally after a week of feeling so lousy, still tired and really stuffed up but on the mend. I will be here sporadically but wanted to give all my friends an update and post a photo with our beautiful fall colors. I really haven't been anywhere to take photos, this one was in the woods in the back of my neighbor's yard. I really like the sky in this one too!
Thanks again for all of you that have emailed me! It means a lot.
I will never catch up but hope to at least do more commenting soon!
Knoblauch soll ein Mittel zur Abwehr von Bakterien, Parasitismus und Viren sein. Da das wirksame Öl durch die Lunge ausgeschieden wird, könne man es bei Atemwegsinfektionen, Bronchitis, wiederkehrenden Erkältungen und Influenza (Grippe) verwenden. Knoblauch könne bei Keuchhusten helfen und die Behandlung von Asthma bronchiale (Bronchialasthma) unterstützen.
Knoblauch wurde in Deutschland zur Arzneipflanze des Jahres 1989 gewählt.
In der Antike war das Veilchen sogar eine heilige Blume. Es war dem Gott Pan geweiht und zu Ehren des Saturn wurden Veilchenkränze auf dem Kopf getragen.
In der heutigen Naturheilkunde wird das Veilchen vorwiegend bei Beschwerden der Atemwege, z.B. Husten und Bronchitis eingesetzt.
In antiquity the violet was even a sacred flower. It was consecrated to the god Pan and, in honor of Saturn, violet wreaths were worn on the head.
In today's naturopathy, the violet is predominantly associated with ailments of the respiratory tract, e.g. Cough and bronchitis.
From last art day.

Leucanthemum vulgare. the ox-eye daisy, or oxeye daisy is used for the common cold, cough, bronchitis, fever, sore mouth and throat, liver and gallbladder complaints, loss of appetite, muscle spasms, fluid retention, and tendency toward infection. It is also used as a tonic. New Bern Historical Society Garden
It's been a month (since Dec 10th) and it seems that the 'flu has morphed into bronchitis. Today I start on my 2nd (stronger) course of antibiotics, which I hope will finally zap this nasty bug. I seem to have lived on Lemsip, lemon and honey drinks, cough linctus, cough drops and antibiotics - and breathed in an entire eucalyptus tree ;o)
I've got a few photos ready and I do want to upload them - but if I'm slow in commenting, uploading or responding ... please be patient! Antibiotics and me don't mix well at all!
I need no soft lights to enchant me
If you'll only grant me
The right to hold you ever so tight
And to feel in the night the nearness of you.

Just stopping by to say "hi" to everyone. Winter is setting in and so has the bronchitis. I'm on the mend and hoping for some good light in the next few weeks so I can shoot some new stuff. Thanks for looking and take care!
This is where my plants overwinter. These should not be inside in late April. You're not even seeing my biggest pots full of zinnia & cosmos seedlings. We both spent hours covering other plants in the yard - and I have bronchitis. Everything will stay covered because we're going back down into the high 30's tonite.
Thank goodness my husband works out every day.
You could shop 'til you dropped in downtown Shuangyashan, and quite literally very quickly judging by the pollution levels continually experienced there, in this city of around 450,000 inhabitants. Our winter 'holiday destination' 2001/02 was nevertheless no disappointment from a steam activity point of view, but a rest would have been ideal upon returning home to get over the acute bronchitis, but work unfortunately got in the way! In the aforementioned conditions, 'QJ' 6917 trundles over the level crossing on Sanmar Road, adjacent to the city's power station, whilst en-route from the China Rail exchange sidings to Zhongxin (Central) station on 4th January 2002.
