Continuing with my Positive Flags of the Nations
project with a tribute to climate and in the hope that we take climate change seriously and start to do something about it.
The shift to a cleaner energy economy won't happen overnight, and it will require tough choices along the way. But the debate is settled. Climate change is a fact.
Barack Obama
In reality, climate change is actually the biggest thing that's going on every single day.
Bill McKibben
Climate change is happening, humans are causing it, and I think this is perhaps the most serious environmental issue facing us.
Bill Nye
The cost of our success is the exhaustion of natural resources, leading to energy crises, climate change, pollution, and the destruction of our habitat. If you exhaust natural resources, there will be nothing left for your children. If we continue in the same direction, humankind is headed for some frightful ordeals, if not extinction.

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️❤️❤️

Spent Saturday morning playing in the rain enjoying some gorgeous waterfalls and looking for fall colors. Wahclella falls is one of my favorites and still impresses me each time I visit. Color is the gorge is not quit at its prime, but beautiful none the less!
Happy Monday my friends and thanks for looking!
Normally, BNSF's Longmont Switch power has been a pair of SD70MACs. However, the crew was notified by the trainmaster to swap power with the Buck Local as the Buck Local needed their SD70MACs to bring cars up from Denver later in the day. So for one day, ex-Burlington Northern GP39-2 No. 2700 and BNSF GP39-3 No. 2618 can be seen powering the Longmont Switch north up Atwood Street in Longmont, Colorado on February 18, 2021
There is actually an old abandoned building hiding behind this wall of multicolored vines. Mother Nature decided some exterior decorating was called for and she pulled out all the stops this time !

Hi, I am the genetic basis of complex human behaviour, Corban.
Welcome one and all to the magnificent mysterious and often fantastical tour of the mind belonging to me... Today I am wanting to talk a little about change, and as this is a place for me to talk about, what ever I want... because it is my blog, and not yours... this is what we will be rambling around this afternoon.
I have realized recently that no matter how much you may want to please other people, eventually changing who you are will leave you miserable and ultimately hurt other people...Find the full rambles and credits @ Corbans Cabinet of Curiosities
I wonder how this juvenile Red-winged Blackbird is doing, whether that growth on its beak was a symptom of something wrong with it or not.
Don't solve the problem,
when danger is better.
Far away where you stock them
In cages that tether
And all the bridges you've burned,
leave you trapped off at all sides.
And now the tables do turn,
and it's all gone, what's left for you.
And when the sky is falling,
don't look outside the window.
Step back and hear I'm calling.
Give up, don't take the fast road.
It's just your doubt that binds you.
Just drop those thoughts behind you now.
Change your mind.
You let go too soon.
Don't run away,
Stop feeling fine.
It's better than your worst, your worst day.
No words to say, I'll give you mine,
and pocket all the hurt, and just stay.
Don't run away.
It's better than your worst, your worst day.
Sit down, you're sinking,
there's no one to watch you.
Skip town, you're thinking,
there's no one to stop you.
Don't run away.
I'll change your mind.

Nature changes now. For some beings it is cold, while some enjoy this low temperatures and moist environments. We are all important, somehow...

Welcome to my word for 2019. How and what are you going to change this year? Your style, attitude, bad habits? Be the change you want to see in the world.
Point Lynas from the coastal path close to Porth Amlwch, this was a quick exercise walk which took me a total of 15Km. It's nice to watch the season changing and the heather is beginning to colour nicely now. The vibrant greens of early summer giving way to the more muted yellow tones of mid summer.The weather stayed dry until I was just a few Km from the car.. but the warm breeze dried my wet gear before I got there. Taken using my little micro four thirds camera which is an ideal walking setup.

At Gwanghwamun Gate, the main entrance to the palace, visitors can see the event twice a day at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. except Tuesdays, when Gyeongbokgung is closed. Gwanghwamun Gate is the venue for the changing of royal guards' ceremony in Seoul.
Can you relate? I got up early because I wanted to photograph some places in town at sunrise. Hoping for warm light and strong shadows.
Almost all the sites I visited had changed into construction sites though and I really got in a bad mood.
I decided to go on since I was there anyway and time can be precious.
Then I saw the light on this window. Diffused by the tree. It's shadows casted on the wall. It instantly changed my mood. I started to photograph other things than planned and got home with a really nice set of photos. You have got to stay open minded.

The change of seasons comes. The warmth fights the ice and snow.

Thank you for all your comments and favs, my friends.
Was taking pictures around this location and then for a moment the lighting changed as the sun was setting on the left, clouds were low blocking light to the right. Quite a remarkable sight.

The Milky Way core season will soon be over. That's however no reason to despair or to start sleeping at night. There are many other highlights in the night sky.
Autumn is the time when Orion, one of the most beautiful constellations, becomes visible again. The blue supergiant Riegel and the red supergiant Betelgeuse are hard to miss and M42, the Orion Nebula, can be seen by naked eye as well. If your skies are really dark, you can capture the elusive Barnards Loop, the red Meissa Region, the Flame Nebula or the Horshead. In the adjacent constellations there are more red gems, like the Rosette Nebula, the Christmas Tree Cluster or the Monkey Head Nebula.
Reason enough to stop on the way home from our Trona Pinnacles session at some interesting rocks. Not only the night sky can change. It was amazing to see how much the landscape differs a few miles away. Instead of tufa spires, the rocks here reminded me of Joshua Tree NP.

This American Tree Sparrow was a first-of-season sighting for me. In our area, typically they arrive in the autumn soon after their similar-looking cousins, the Chipping Sparrows, disappear on their southerly migration.
The new buildings right across from where I live, had some scratches in the windows (occurred during construction), so this was changing "almost new" to "brand new". The crane operator, Emil, was kind to let me follow his work for an hour...

Yes I'm Changing (Tame Impala)
www.youtube.com/watch?v=wI60jMIDQ0U
There is another future waiting there for you
I saw it different, I must admit
I caught a glimpse, I'm going after it
...
Yes I'm changing, can't stop it now
And even if I wanted I wouldn't know how
Another version of myself I think I found, at last
And I can't always hide away
...
Quoted from SongFacts:
Personal transition is a major theme flowing through frontman Kevin Parker's songwriting on the Currents album. He explained to Uncut magazine: "That was precipitated by what I found myself singing about. I usually just follow my instincts when I start writing and then I will notice a theme emerging. I tried to amplify that so I can make a cohesive album, one that has a message and story."
"And yeah, this theme of this personal transition and moving on really went together with the music. I wanted to explore this idea of feeling like you're turning into the kind of person you thought you'd never become or starting to appreciate things you've never done it before," he continued. "You set these rules and standards, then one day you feel like you want to embrace other things, and the only way to do that is to abandon your previous self."
Parker added that this was the song where he felt it all started to cohere, stating "'Yes, I'm Changing' was the first time I managed to string together the right words to bring home what I'm trying to say."
