“When you are content to be simply yourself and don't compare or compete, everyone will respect you.”

 

- Lao Tzu -

Finding Nemo was the best thing I have done in a very long time!

Nunca pises los silencios

que otros dejan,

ni las hojas que escribiste con ternura

que el otoño las tinta de colores

y hace que sean fuente de otra vida

navegando entre mares de esperanza

para hallar siempre horizontes

que te entreguen los sueños e ilusiones

de navegar contento por la vida.

Nunca huyas si sólo bien hiciste

y trataste de vestir de alegría

jardines y paseos sin deseos

de engalanarse de colores de por vida.

Nunca pises los silencios

ni con ellos hagas mal nunca a la vida.

YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE – ELVIS PRESLEY

 

Sometimes in life we come full circle

I see a footprint of my beginning

and here I am back at the start

I see the people who tried to stop me winning

but I rise above them; and leave them far behind

I draw a line in shifting, whispering grains of sand

and something deep inside me drives me on

no looking back; I am complete; I understand

sometimes in life we cannot win them over

it's not our job; it's for a greater Hand

and He will guide me on my journey

bring me safely to the shore

where angels sing; rejoice and hold me

and I will not be frightened any more

He sees in us the pain; the human burden

He sees the weight that life and people bring

He knows how much; He knows and He is certain

He will not give us more than we can take

so that in our hearts and souls we'll always sing

and when at last our cup is brimming over

He lays his Hand upon our heads and soothes our brow

and we feel the greatest love that ever found us

and we are comforted and lighter; it is a miracle somehow

and once more we are peaceful

finding joy in simple things

as darkness; shadows and all our plights

are left behind and taken care of;

whisked away on angel's wings

and soon the lines of strain are smoothed; not furrowed

as clouds reveal the stars of wonder and ethereal light

and we begin to live at last the ever after; forget tomorrow

this moment we exist; and in this moment

I am complete; I am content right here, right now.

Hi everyone,

 

Wasn't planning to post any new content until the early to mid stages of January, but I thought I'd throw one more image out there for 2022.

 

This is a Pine Marten(American Marten) from my trip this week to Algonquin Provincial Park here in Ontario, Canada.

 

I'll see you all again in a week or two with more new content. Until then, Happy New Year!

 

I'm also on Instagram, Facebook and Vero @gregtaylorphotography

Don't disturb pose - One Moon Poses

Sea lions are pinnipeds characterized by external ear flaps, long foreflippers, the ability to walk on all fours, short and thick hair, and a big chest and belly. Together with the fur seals, they make up the family Otariidae, eared seals. The sea lions have six extant and one extinct species (the Japanese sea lion) in five genera. Their range extends from the subarctic to tropical waters of the global ocean in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, with the notable exception of the northern Atlantic Ocean.

 

Sea lions have an average lifespan of 20–30 years. A male California sea lion weighs on average about 300 kg (660 lb) and is about 2.4 m (8 ft) long, while the female sea lion weighs 100 kg (220 lb) and is 1.8 m (6 ft) long. The largest sea lions are Steller's sea lions, which can weigh 1,000 kg (2,200 lb) and grow to a length of 3.0 m (10 ft). Sea lions consume large quantities of food at a time and are known to eat about 5–8% of their body weight (about 6.8–15.9 kg (15–35 lb)) at a single feeding. Sea lions can move around 16 knots (30 km/h; 18 mph) in water and at their fastest they can reach a speed of about 30 knots (56 km/h; 35 mph). Three species, the Australian sea lion, the Galápagos sea lion and the New Zealand sea lion, are listed as endangered

This plane was built with ores that came from the earth. Slowly the smelted metals are breaking down and being re-absorbed into Mother Earth. 73 years it has survived here, so far. The white shiny metals in the background are mostly as shiny, almost mirror like, as the day they were made, the rest is breaking down just like rusting is dissolving into grains as you can see bottom left of the picture.

 

There are parts big and small scattered over a large area. The remaining big chunks are the undercarriage and the engines. But there are sections of 'skin' metal I found hundreds of yards to the north. They might have been carried by souvenir hunters, and put down when they got fed up carrying them, but those I saw I suspected were blown there by the wild winds that I'm sure will frequently blast the top of Bleaklow. But if someone wants a challenge, see if you can identify what part of the aircraft this is. This might help you www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=ueBW5vp... But not much! PS. I don't have the answer!

My entry for the 9th les Archives de Mavrah (Mavrah's Archives) contest on Bionifigs.

 

What I read on him heavily made me think of the Alien, so I used it a my primary inspiration. The shaping of the torso was inspired by the Engineer's suit in Prometheus.

 

He uses his six arms as shields against elemental attacks, and as spears to destroy the Toa's lifestones.

With her head laid on her back, this female Canada Goose sat quite contently and watched what I was doing. I didn't get close as to disturb her, but as I got up to leave she lifted her head ever so slightly. I left some corn close by for her and went on my way.

Voilà, on vient de rentrer de chez ma gentille véto. Je pense que môman a raison, la véto est amoureuse de moi mais grave comme il faut, elle a passé plus de temps à me papouiller et à me dire plein de mots d'amour que des soins. Entre nous, je préfère ;-)

Alors, pour mon menton, c'est une grosse plaie pas belle à voir du tout (moi j'ai pas vu mais j'ai vu la tête de môman, mamie et ma véto et ça avait l'air bien dégueu!). On m'a nettoyé convenablement la plaie, on m'a même enlevé des petites touffes de poils et du coup on voit ma peau rose cochon en dessous :-p

Pour ne pas que j'aie trop mal, on m'a fait une belle piqure de cortisone et j'ai pas bronché.

Pour l'intérieur de ma bouche, c'est pas pire qu'avant, y a même un léger mieux par rapport au mois de mai. Il n'y a plus d'ulcères au niveau du palais mais par contre y a des zones très rouges au niveau des gencives. Et puis on a peut être eu l'explication de cet abcès. En fait la grosse canine en haut à droite (on la voit pas sur la photo évidemment mais c'est de ce côté là) est tellement longue qu'elle a creusé un trou dans la "lèvre" de la machoire inférieure :-( on dirait le foureau d'une épée il paraît mais comme la gencive de cette dent là est très enflammée, c'est sûrement ça infecte une veine qui arrive sur mon menton et qui fait que l'infection sort par là...

Donc voilà la mauvaise nouvelle de la soirée c'est que je vais retourner sur la table d'opération mercredi! On va m'enlever cette saloperie de dent et puis une autre aussi un peu plus loin. Et d'ici là ça sera antibiotiques matin et soir, pweeerk.

Môman a eu un peu peur mais la véto a dit que si elle proposait cette solution c'est qu'elle avait confiance, que vu mon âge y avait un risque évident mais il y a aussi des techniques d'anesthésie moins lourdes et que de toute façon avant l'opération on allait me faire des analyses de sang et un examen des reins et qu'elle choisirait alors l'anesthésie qui convient le mieux. Du coup c'est môman qui avait pas l'air fier dans le cabinet de la véto parce qu'il faut pas oublier que j'ai un souffle au coeur aussi. Moi personnellement je m'en foutais, j'étais déjà retourné dans ma caisse après qu'on m'ait dit que j'étais le plus beau, le plus brave et le plus gentil, na!

En tout cas môman vous remercie tous pour vos gentils mots, elle est très touchée et elle vous embrasse tous très fort. Moi je vous envoie plein de ronrons et je file me coucher, vais rêver à ma véto! A bientôt!
