Within the brewpub is also Cafe Nom Nom an Asian Fusion restaurant. Their food is great as is the Ambear Ale brewed by Boxing Bear Brewpub.

Mr. Cardinals Choices he had to think about either a peanut or some bird seed, they like the bird seed but will snatch a peanut some times, found in North Carolina.

In keeping with the season, I've been posting quite a few images with autumnal tones lately, so it seemed time to break it up with a shot featuring some brighter colors. It's a summer scene from the 2019 Oakland County Fair in Davisburg, Michigan. And there are a couple of benches in the image too, so I'm calling it a Bench Monday shot. :-)

Members Choice - Bokeh, Macro Mondays

Along a winding road

 

If no one paints the land, will we still have bees, if the flowers don't fix us with delight, will the stars still shine so bright, if no one mends the trees, will we still have leaves and breeze, if fruit went sour, within the hour, would tides stand still, would the clouds want payment for the rain, would ideas and tears and fears fall in vain.

 

If the land can't hold back the sea, and fish could fly with ease, would flowers swim, and oceans brim, with pesticides and flowers. If dogs could talk, and cats could walk, would mice get jobs, and chimps turn knobs, to bring us news and music on the hour.

 

If the sky should fall, would forests rust and deserts bloom with icy crust. Would life recoil till the small and meek came from the soil. If bacteria got big, would they put on suits and wigs, then make us dance their merry jig.

 

If I bought a dream on faith and trust, would water turn to dust. Would everything I believe dissolve into uncertainty, would I be shaken and stirred, would my fists fly in rage, or celebrate a brand new day. Will change make free, the chains in you and me.

 

I feel the sting of love, when all I want is peace, a piece of you and me. Stay well and love, constant, all else can shift and change and re-arrange.

Your life is a result of the choices you make… if you don’t like your life it is time to start making better choices.

I like to take their photos up close or far away, love to see their habitats, too. (very cropped)

 

Male flame skimmers are known for their entirely red or dark orange body, this includes eyes, legs, and even wing veins. Females are usually a medium or darker brown with some thin, yellow markings. Due to its choice habitat of warm ponds, streams, or hot springs, flame skimmers are found mainly in the southwestern part of the United States.

 

It's very difficult for me to thank everyone individually, so thank you all very much for your visit and your comment, much appreciated.

Orchid I photographed at my monthly orchid meeting.

 

Catasetum, abbreviated as Ctsm. in horticultural trade, is a genus of showy epiphytic Orchids, family Orchidaceae, subfamily Epidendroideae, tribe Cymbidieae, subtribe Catasetinae, with 166 species, many of which are highly prized in horticulture.

 

Species of the genus Catasetum occur from Mexico to Argentina, including much of Central America, the West Indies, and South America. The largest number of species is in Brazil.

 

They have thick, cigar-shaped pseudobulbs which are clustered. The leaves are pleated in the upper part and deciduous. The pseudobulbs become spiny after the leaves have dropped. - Wikipedia

We went out for breakfast yesterday ....yes, breakfast!

The railway tracks at the train station of Vienenburg in Lower Saxony, Germany.

 

The train station which includes a railway museum is the oldest still in use station in Germany.

This Greater Spotted Woodpecker (Dendrocopos major) thinks twice about her choice of feeder, the other one is smaller but has the better food/

For several days I have been looking for new places to shoot by the sea. I´ve found a number of exiting and attractive foreground objects, but light has not been on my side or the seawater has been too high. How many times should I go to the same place, trying to capture it in perfect light. 3-4 nights with no luck. Should I be satisfied with what I got or continue and wait for truly spectacular light ? What would you do?

Making choices ... not always easy! You can't always 'Have your cake and eat it'.

In this case however, I could! First we walked up to the Kuhgehrenspitze (1910m), to enjoy the fantastic view over the Kleinwalsertal, then we returned to this signpost to start the long descent to Mittelberg.

this is my contribution for Max Kuiper's latest publication, Nuit & Noirs 3, Sacred Language.

 

For this issue, the contributors were asked to respond on this quote of Antonin Artaud:

“I am adding another language to the spoken language,

and I am trying to restore to the language of speech its old magic,

its essential spellbinding power,

for its mysterious possibilities have been forgotten.”

"The choice before us is simple

Will we continue to subsidize the dirty fossil fuels of the past, or will we transition to 21st century clean, renewable energy?"

I enjoy participating in Macro Mondays challenges each week. Usually it takes a while to find a subject; sometimes I don't succeed.

 

But this week for 'corner' I have too many ideas.

 

Three in my triptych:

 

1 of 6 corners of a hexagonal small pottery coaster with leaf motif made by Clare

 

a book corner of a slim volume: Irène Némirovsky's 'Ida'

 

a corner of a flowery birthday gift bag

My entries always need much processing, including a disproportionate amount to ensure that the macro fits within a strict size.

Anyone for a Cuban cigar? Cigar factories and associated storefronts are plentiful along Calle Ocho, the main street in Little Havana, Miami's Cuban American neighborhood.
