A cat in greenery is a harmonious combination ... however, cats are always and everywhere harmonious :)
The ancient Egyptians had a special relationship with cats: they were revered as sacred animals; mummified like humans; depicted in sculpture and frescoes. And the very first cat "portrait" was written by the Egyptians.
For a long time it was believed that the Egyptians tamed cats. However, in 2004, a burial site dating back to 9500 BC was discovered in Cyprus. e., in which a cat was found together with a man. A wild beast would hardly have been put in a grave. It turned out that cats lived with people long before they appeared in Egypt. The Middle East began to be considered the birthplace of domestic cats, and Egypt was forgotten for some time. But not for long: in 2008, a burial was opened in southern Egypt, in which six cats were found - a male, a female and four kittens. Although this burial was younger than the Cypriot one (about 6000 years), it became clear that cats were known in Egypt much earlier than was thought until recently.
It is known that the ancestor of the domestic cat was the steppe cat Felis silvestris lybica - it still lives in the steppe, desert and partly mountainous regions of Africa, Western, Central and Central Asia, in Northern India, Transcaucasia and Kazakhstan. In 2007, it was possible to establish that all modern cats descended from him.
Seafarers brought the first cats to Rus' in the pre-Christian era. Exotic animals were a valuable commodity: the cost of a cat until the 15th century was comparable to the value of a healthy arable animal - an ox.

of stone, wood and withering combination of the garden plantation!
This is classed and known to be one of the main great features of the garden.
I was very grateful that this wonderful framed constructure was near towards the house. Where it would get some shade from any strong contrasting sunlight above. That gave me, the best composition for framing and getting a great depth of view into this shot!
This is my favourite one for that day and I am very well pleased of the way it turned out.
Even though many photographers, as a rule, would rather have a person in the shot, even walking up or down to give the composition of framing.
But not for me this time, as I wanted to capture the beauty of the construction of this.
Also, if you zoom into the last frame, I managed to capture a couple walking on by!
So, it's easy to see why and can visualise, this gets used for the Wedding occasions they do from the house!
Especially when in Spring or Summer time, with full blooming out of flowers that surrounds all over it.
Which would make this the perfect setting and framing for any bride and groom shots.
This now raps up the end of this series, from Winterbourne House and Gardens, for this visit.
So, many thanks for your delightful comments and compliments from you here, my good flickr friends !!!
Combination of motion blur and selective colour. I am beginning to really like this look although it seems to be a bit of a long process for me. I am saying not so easy. I like the outcome though.

Sint Nicholaskerk is the most seen and at the same time overlooked church in Amsterdam as well as being one its most recent constructions, no one can miss this iconic structure upon arrival to the city walking from Centraal Station your eye is immediately drawn to it at 58 m in height it towers over the city skyline.
This Roman Catholic Church was designed by Architect Adrianus Bleijs and is a nod to the past combining elements of neo-Baroque and neo-Renaissance styles, completed in 1887 it was made a minor Basilica in 2012.
The church is dedicated to the 4th century charitable patron saint of children that became our Santa Claus as well as the patron saint of sailors and prostitutes, another winning combination.
In the Netherlands Santa Claus is known as Sinterklaas and a feast has been celebrated for over 700 years in his name and adopted in the early part of 20th century the tradition of leaving small gifts in children’s shoes was practiced on Dec 6th which has evolved now to become a Dec 5th evening tradition of gathering of family and friends to exchange gifts and laughter.
While Dutch Sinterklaas celebrations are mainly for the children its adult component is an annual grievance poem written to the recipient that must rhyme and be read out loud by the subject at the evening party all in good fun but beware you may get as good as you give.
I took this on Sept 10th, 2017 with my D750 and Nikon 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens at 58mm 15 sec f/16 ISO100 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia, Topaz , Luminar and DXO

Utah is not a place most people think about for autumn colors, but we have our pockets of color to enjoy. This shot is 15 minutes from my daytime office in a place called Millcreek Canyon in Salt lake City.
NOT the Great Salt Lake - GPS is the exact spot of the shot.
No comments today – just enjoy :-)
The Bay of Fire located on the northeaster coast of Tasmania gets its color from orange lichens that have accumulated on the rocks. Lichens are a combination of algae and fungus.
A combination of strong wind and bad technique left this shot quite mushy, but the brief sunset light with lots of dust in the air made for a good scene nonetheless. Grimes Point is an archaeological site near Fallon NV with some of the oldest petroglyphs around. The NV Rock Art Foundation notes that this site dates back 8,000 years, when the shoreline of ancient lake Lahontan filled the desert floor below.
There is only really one place to stay on Ibo island and that is Ibo Island Lodge. It is a huge property made up of mansions and gardens. The mansions resemble plantation houses and are a combination of old structures that have been refined and updated. High beam ceilings and huge poster beds with netting are featured.
The community has renovated the property and has made the gorgeous wood furniture that adorn the rooms. One can sit on your own huge veranda and watch the island's life. This was a joy for me because the slow pace of life on the island also takes one back in time. And the food? FRESH produce and brilliantly prepared.
Due to its diet the golden monkey prefers a habitat with abundant fruit and bamboo. The golden monkey moves in between areas depending on the season. During the season where ripe fruit is available they remain in those areas. With the beginning of the rainy season, bamboo is shooting and the golden monkeys move to such habitats. Results of studies indicate that if there is an area consisting of mixed fruit and bamboo, the golden monkeys tend to frequent that area more than areas consisting of only bamboo. Authors of one study reported that golden monkeys are most frequently seen in bamboo forests, suggesting that the species prefers this habitat.
The golden monkey can travel in various group sizes, and have been seen in small groups of three up to large groups of 62 monkeys. The groups that are found at higher elevations tend to be smaller. The golden monkey will often return to one of several different sleeping areas after a day of feeding. The monkeys often sleep in small subgroups of four, at the top of bamboo plants. They will often use a dense bamboo plant, or a combination of several bamboo plants that weave together to make a sufficient foundation for sleep. The golden monkey will often feed near the sleeping area and return to this same sleeping location day after day.

A huge part of styling is picking the right combination of cosmetics and accessory pieces for the perfect look. Fashion is a very popular art form, vehicle for self-expression, and creativity - especially when it comes to choosing your aesthetics.
The choices you therefore make in your jewelry selections play a vital role in expressing who you are and what pieces are most important to your fashion interests and statements.
This Heartsdale Jewelry’s [HJ] Mists of Avalon Necklace & Earrings Set is one splendid example. This elegant, gold-veined and black pendant set is a mystical and magical pairing which seamlessly complements the stunning biophilic beauty of this Le'La Hiral Outfit.
Adding to the glamorous vibe of this ensemble, I chose M&T Garage Giada Eyeshadow. It features eyeliner which is certainly beauty's shape shifter. Dark and smoldering with its winged look, this stunning makeup channels your mood into the exotics.
For my moist sexy looking lips, I selected YoUnique Cosmetics Monaco Glamour lipstick. I then chose Maktub Store’s Gina Eyes. These eyes give my look a beautifully ferocious extra edge.

Landmark:
ripe berries of lonicera caprifolium/ honeysuckle in combination with wild agrimony flowers forming a lovely spontaneous little scene
agrimony is a beneficial herb that was already known by ancient Greek and Romans, also in Keltic culture, China and by Native Americans... to treat eye and skin ailments or insomnia etc., in Europe during the middle ages and Afrika in VooDoo it was/is even used to dispel curses!
but nothing of course like laughing at our troubles to dispel them, much better than to hide or say repress them for which agrimony also helps according to the English Dr. Bach in 19th century... making more spontaneous and open, also brave and confident enough to face troubles... keeping naturally cheerful and jovial!
also lonicera is a traditional herb known to be very beneficial for health and it is very nutritious... a.o. also calming and strengthening it is... too much to name here... but let 's say it is quite a strong combination that I came across here in the park where only wild flowers are found!
Another view of the cliffs at Land's End. Granite forms the backbone of Cornwall and here at Land's End there are two types which have responded to hundreds of thousands of years of wild weather and dramatic seas. The coarser granite and smoother granite crystals form varying layers and create what we now see as piles of rocks on the cliffs. Land's End is said to have a mild and frost-free climate, but on this day, like many days on the west coast of Cornwall, there was a combination of fog and high winds with patches of sunshine making the day more pleasant.

The theme for “Looking Close on Friday” for the 7th of October is “a combination of soft and sharp”. This sounds like it is a soft and sharp focus theme, but in fact it is a combination of soft and sharp objects or plants. I immediately thought of roses, as I have some beautiful roses with soft petals and sharp thorns in my garden, but whilst spring is here, it is a cold and wet one, so I have no blooms yet. Luckily, I had another idea that also came to mind when the theme was announced. Anyone who follows my photostream, or knows me, knows that I love Art Nouveau. It is my favourite design movement. This even extends to my wardrobe, which is full of shirts made from beautiful and unusual Art Nouveau patterned fabric, mostly from Liberty of London, where I have shopped since I was a young teenager. Recently I acquired several metres of a number of new Liberty Art Nouveau fabrics to have made into shirts for summertime. This particular Liberty pattern is called “Nouveau Poppy” and is from their “Deco Dance” range of soft cottons. Thus, I have put a sharp needle used for sewing through the soft Liberty cotton as my combination of soft and sharp. I hope you like my choice for the theme, and that it makes you smile.
Shot in January this year when I had the opportunity to visit the Peak District for a couple of hours. Walking at the top of a small mountain ridge, the sun just came through the clouds and the light was amazing. I guess that this was just luck-)
I worked on a initial version of this photo and since I work with Lightroom CC (in combination with Photoshop), I thought to give it another try. I'm actually amazed what you can pull from a file from the LX3, an older camera with some limits. But it's all about the picture and I'm pretty proud about this one!
The combination of floods, freezing conditions and sun were too much to resist. I was in search of a good vantage point to get shots that included the flooded Somerset levels and a good vantage point for the railway, this farm track took me to the right spot south west of Bridgwater and it gave me the added bonus of some ice in the foreground. A flock of Jackdaws are flying behind the voyager. An interesting fact is the collective noun for a group of Jackdaws is a ‘Train’.

A combination of various geometric shapes in scale and dimension brings forth a very unique skyline in the night when the buildings are illuminated.
In November last year, I had the great privilege of being taken to a private working flower farm, hidden in the heart of the Dandenong Ranges National Park in Silvan on the outskirts of Melbourne. The growers specialise in crocuses, Japanese water irises, orchids, rare species of plants from South America and California, and beautiful heirloom peony roses. As a departure gift after a lovely afternoon wandering the greenhouses and fields, the owners gave me a bunch of beautiful pink Sarah Bernhardt peonies which have wonderfully furled petals.
As the weather was beautifully fine in the days following my visit, I took the peonies in their vase out onto the garden to photograph them against the beautiful blue sky dusted with white, fluffy clouds, and against the rich green of my lawn. Imagine my delight, when a Heteronympha Merope (Common Brown) butterfly landed on one of the blooms just as I was photographing them! Now, I will happily confess that I admire any photographer who is quick enough to capture a butterfly in a shot, as I am usually far too slow to do so myself. However this butterfly was remarkably obliging and stayed on the bloom, basking in the sunshine, just long enough for me to take three photographs before it flitted away again!
The theme for the 3rd of August for “Smile on Saturday” is “combination of flora and fauna”. I was originally going to use another shot of a bee amongst some spring blossoms, but as I used a similar shot for “Looking Close on Friday’s theme of “bugs & co” on the 5th of July, when I remembered these photos from my archive, I decided to make a photo collage and submit them instead. I hope you like my choice for this week’s theme, and that it makes you smile!
Heteronympha Merope, or the Common Brown, is a species of butterfly of the family Nymphalidae, endemic to the southern half of Australia. The wingspan is about sixty millimetres for males and seventy millimetres for females.
Paeonia lactiflora 'Sarah Bernhardt' is an exquisite herbaceous peony with ruffled, flamingo-pink double blooms that open from large and rounded buds. 'Sarah Bernhardt' is by far the best-known and most loved peony in the world. In fact, it’s so popular that it has become the face of peonies in general. This heirloom plant from 1906 is also delightfully fragrant.

COMBINATION OF FLORA & FAUNA
Combination of low tide and fog in the evening made for an interesting view there in Bar Harbor, Maine.
While boating looking for a different capture I found and loved the combination of the electricity lines, the sky and the clouds and "voila".
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo💜💜
The colour combination of black body with tufts of brown hair, red spots and white markings make the larvae of the Knot Grass moth easy to identify. This caterpillar will feed on a variety of plants including heather, plantain, knotgrass, dock, bramble, sallow and hawthorn. No surprise that this moth is a common and widespread species throughout Britain. This larva was found in my garden today looking for somewhere to pupate over winter in a cocoon formed among leaf litter.
I see it in everything, that it is often the combination that ‘makes’ something…
Whether it be food, clothes, colours euhh, or people… LOL
It becomes MORE, a perfect marriage or friendship?
A red Rose and an electric-blue Centaurea (Cornflower), YESSS!
Thank you for your visit, M, (*_*)

To see a combination of Re 6/6 and Re 4/4 on an international transit train in 2021 is almost a spectacle. The two locomotives were the standard traction par excellence in the days of the old Gotthard line, but with the opening of the two base tunnels on the Gotthard and Lötschberg, the Re 10/10 combination is no longer often seen. Newly built Traxx and Vectron locomotives have taken over almost all of the services and now dominate freight traffic on the two transit axes.
The photographers were all delighted on the evening of 23.04.2021 when the combination 11617 (Re 620 017) and 11342 (Re 420 342) appeared in the curve near Einigen.

DE: Im Jahr 2021 eine Kombination aus Re 6/6 und Re 4/4 an einem internationalen Transitzug zu sehen, grenzt schon fast an ein Wunder. Die beiden Loks waren zu Zeiten der Gotthardbergstrecke die Standardtraktion schlechthin, doch mit der Eröffnung der beiden Basistunnels am Gotthard und am Lötschberg ist die Re 10/10 genannge Kombination nicht mehr oft zu sehen. Neubauloks des Typs Traxx und Vectron haben die Leistungen beinahe gesamtheitlich übernommen und dominieren heute den Güterverkehr auf den beiden Transitachsen.
Umso grösser war die Freude der Fotografen am Abend des 23.04.2021 als in der Kurve bei Einigen die Kombination 11617 (Re 620 017) und 11342 (Re 420 342) auftauchte.
