I remember deciding to try this on on the spur of the moment one night, as it had hung in my wardrobe for months with the tags still on. I didn't really think much of it at the time...
I couldn't decide if the whole mast needed to be in the picture or not. It's more sky then I like. What do you think? Could I have cut that mast in half and not lose the effects or not?
Happy New Week everyone
After deciding whether to take a photo for the theme, I finally used three crystal balls inside a pale blue foam egg packaging and lined them up in a row. I used my two table lamps for light.

If you decide to travel along this highway into the bowels of the Universe, carry enough fuel to cover the billions of light years ahead of you. You won't find a place to refuel. When you have travelled this distance without finding anything, not even a little bit of intelligent life and you reach the far reaches of the Universe... don't be scared... there's nothing there, either. Only the "nothing". Or since everything is cyclical, perhaps you have returned to the place where you started, full of wisdom from your long trip. It's probably better to look for intelligent life on Earth, but it's also very likely that you'll have a hard time finding it. Don't worry about not understanding the Universe or the reason for its existence... you're not Einstein, but one day you'll understand that... The Universe is wounded, but it still has infinity ahead of it. It still has you and me. Merry Christmas to all and to the infinite Universe that is within you.
Gregory Alan Isakov - The Universe
Y el Universo está susurrando tan suavemente que puedo oírlo todo... el zumbido de los insectos, todos los taxis, todo el cambio gastado de los vagabundos, todos los chicos jugando a la pelota en los callejones. Son sólo pliegues en su vestido. El Universo, está herido, pero aún tiene el infinito por delante. Todavía nos tiene a ti y a mí. Y todos dicen que es hermoso. Y todos dicen...

Music for your trip to the Universe:
Ground Control to Major Tom. Ground Control to Major Tom. Take your protein pills and put your helmet on. Ground Control to Major Tom (ten, nine, eight, seven, six)... Commencing countdown, engines on (five, four, three)... Check ignition and may God's love be with you (two, one, liftoff...)
Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Parts VI–IX
"Shine On You Crazy Diamond", was written as a tribute to Syd Barrett, one of the founders of Pink Floyd. He was also known as "The Crazy Diamond Syd". Barrett was a very creative musician and is considered one of the rock icons, with a strong influence on many artists, very especially to David Bowie. Syd Barrett is a key piece to understand the evolution of rock in the 70s.. Excessive drug use, especially LSD, caused him serious mental health problems. Syd Barrett died in 2006 at the age of 60. Always shine diamond.
The Universal is a science fiction song written as a tribute to two films by film director Stanley Kubrick. In the video, the Blur members wear outfits similar to Alex and his gang of thugs, the protagonists of the movie "A Clockwork Orange." The image used for the cover of the single alluded to what is possibly Kubrick's best film: "2001: To Space Odyssey."
We haven't changed that much in 300,000 years of evolution.

Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a black and white day at Color my World Daily and we celebrate Sliders Sunday. Since I had so much fun taking pictures for the tree bark theme at Looking close on Friday, I decide to add one more photo on this subject. As you can see, this is a whole picture of my tree bark pencil. They are super cool as photo props but unfortunately, those are a pain in the a**ss to sharpen. The wood (honestly I don’t even know if those are made from real wood … or some kind of Chinese magic super resistant wood look alike plastic…) is super hard and I even tried to use an exacto knife and it was almost impossible to cut… However, my pencils are here to stay since they make such an awesome props.
Have a beautiful day ! Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!
FYI: because of my renovation project I have to, constantly, move our stuff from one room to another on a very short notice !! So once again, I have to apologize for not answering your comments… I will try to catch up very shortly but for the next few days I’m afraid I will be M.I.A. (missing in action) !!!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!
Happy Caturday group wants to see what hobbies our cats enjoy and I really think retrieving is highest on Rena's list. She is very sketchy in her retrieving, sometimes 8 or 9 quick retrieves and sometimes none or only one. But always these little springs.
Here she's deciding if she'd rather do something else, maybe bird watching or bopping Benni on the nose.
When the sun shines brightly and it looks like spring has finally arrived, then it's time to relax and enjoy yourself at one of many streetside cafés. This one is in the middle of the street or square called Grüner Markt (Green Market) in the middle of Bamberg, with fruit, vegetable and flower stands all around. The waiter's bringing your beer. Or did you decide to have coffee and cake instead? [P1090348_lr_2000]
Thank you all for the clicks, comments & faves.
The winter and the cold wave came to Switzerland.
With this picture I did not make it easy for me. At first I really could not decide which photo to put on flickr. I wrestled with myself, because I would like to present the most beautiful photo for my friends here. Secondly, the picture was made under very difficult external conditions, because it was really "bitterly cold". I could barely touch my hands after photographing and yet I wanted to get a nice photo of these beautiful ice crystals. I succeeded, more or less, because the background was not ideal for that. In addition, my faithful friend Roco had to wait for me and there I no longer want to start one try after another. This time I did not want to make any compromises with the warm colors of the picture, because the cold should be very touchable. I believe this has succeeded with this picture. I am fascinated by this "little work of art". Each little detail is a miracle of creation, because it was shaped by the elements of nature and radiates its brilliance as long as this nature allows.
I am grateful for these little things without which life would not be so beautiful and interesting.
Rejoice over the elements of nature.
Erwin
I thank you all for the interest and enthusiasm for my work here. I am happy about every comment from you and every time you like my pictures. Thank you very much for all the favorites and for watching my photos.
Small supplement of today:
The winter has caught up with me too, for I am terribly cold. Nevertheless, or just because of this, I am looking forward to every single word from you. Also, I always see in the little things, which makes the importance and beauty of life. Wish all of you a blessed time, without illness and with much love and joy. Hope you can all be in a nice warm place, because outside it is extremely cold here. Brrrrrr .....
....first there was darkness till i created the night, first there was darkness and darkness was right. darkness is moving into the light...

“What you have to decide... is how you want your life to be. If your forever was ending tomorrow, would this be how you'd want to have spent it? Listen, the truth is, nothing is guaranteed. You know that more than anybody. So dont be afraid. Be alive.”
Quote ― Sarah Dessen, The Truth About Forever
En 1740, el Marqués de Dos Aguas, decide renovar su casa solariega como muestra de su poder y linaje, y sustituye el carácter severo de la antigua casa por una gran abundancia decorativa. De esta reforma destaca especialmente la portada principal. La fachada, de estilo puramente barroco, presenta dos figuras alegóricas del río, en alusión al marquesado y está rematada por una hornacina con la Virgen del Rosario que fue realizada por el mismo Vergara. Estaba protegida por un balcón corrido del cual se conservan grabados y fotografías.
In 1740, the Marquis of Dos Aguas decided to renovate his manor house as a sign of his power and lineage, and replaced the severe character of the old house with a great abundance of decoration. Of this reform, the main portal stands out. The façade, in a purely baroque style, presents two allegorical figures of the river, alluding to the marquisate and is topped by a niche with the Virgen del Rosario that was made by Vergara himself. It was protected by a continuous balcony of which engravings and photographs are preserved.

I did this mostly in Photoshop Elements-23. Stu is such a good sport to let me distort him this way!
After months of planning and deciding where to go to take the shot of steel wool burning I just went out - drove close to the cemetery a few kilometres away and took the shot. This was a result of the 3rd attempt. i know - it's far from perfect but just a start. I must say I immensly enjoyed taking the shot - it was fun to see those sparks flying around while moving the whisk around. I'll definitely do it more than just once - changing scenery - discovering new places to shoot it - definitely somewhere over the water.
I had a hard time post processing - mainly because of light pollution - the background was too light. Finally just used RawTherapee to tweak it - originally WB was not so good on automatic so had to work on it. I guess I could do it much better but hey it's my first time.
I am a tea drinker, but usually 1 maybe two a day. I love the taste of coffee but it cleans me out. We don't need that.

Seven, that's the time we leave, at seven ... series
__________
Gonna take a sentimental journey
Gonna set my heart at ease
Gonna make a sentimental journey
To renew old memories
Got my bag, got my reservation
Spent each dime I could afford
Like a child in wild anticipation
Long to hear that all aboard
Seven, that's the time we leave, at seven
I'll be waitin' up at heaven
Countin' every mile of railroad track
That takes me back
Never thought my heart could be so yearny
Why did I decide to roam
Gotta take this sentimental journey
Sentimental journey home

- was deciding the Goat scratching its cheek.
A small herd of grazing goats manage chalk grassland of the Reserve. These are domesticated goats (Capra hircus) that fit well into rocky landscape of this area. Grazing was performed by sheep in the past, but goats might be more efficient in this job, and they have horns too. It would be interesting to see if it brings more orchids and other wildflowers, or they will be eaten. Avon Wildlife Trust, Bathford near Bath, England, UK

Well my friends WELCOME to 2018 .A year of peace,joy and happiness.
A year made for manifestation and wishes fullfield but also for love,tolerance and kindness.
A year in which for the sake of humanity and of our own happiness we need to remember how to build bridges,unions and relationships instead of breaking them how we did last year.
A year thatt I know it can make all our dreams come true and the world a better place, if we can only stick together in a place of love and positivity and not allow personal fears,frustrations and failures to turn us one against each other.
A year in which I know we can really find the serenity to accept the things we cannot change,the courage to change what can be changed and the wisdom to know the difference if we understand the importance of it.
A year that I know it can become the best one ever no matter the cicumstances if we can only decide that it will be so and hold this decision in our hearths with love and faith all through our daily ups and downs.
Happy New Year!!! my friends.
And much peace&love to
you all!

Natasha, overwhelmed by work and family, decides to call Alexei. He tells her that he has a business trip and if he could accompany her.
She doesn't have any business trips but she needs to disconnect from her day to day; The boy without asking where or when, says YES!
Destination Santorini. Near the southern tip of the island, near the village of Akrotiri and next to the Red Beach, is the White Beach.
Not, as one might expect, a pristine white sand beach, but a gray sand and pebble beach,
with a wide stretch of white cliffs rising vertically above it. The only means of access is an arduous rock climb across the red beach,
or by water taxi. It is a popular beach with divers, who enjoy exploring the base of the cliffs and rocks that make up the cove,
and those who seek more tranquility than in the neighboring Red Beach. There are a few sun loungers and umbrellas available in the mini beach bar,
which also sells water, drinks and snacks. And there we were Alexei and Natasha enjoying that paradise! That boy with an athletic complexion, with tattoos and piercings,
Caucasian. and thinking about the last sentence that Alexei said... << My greatest wish is to be able to make you feel full,
For this, it is essential that we forge a relationship based on trust, everything remains between us in the strictest confidentiality,
as well as in my desire to satisfy each and every one of your fantasies.>>

Incappable de décider entre Coppé et Plein Cadre !
Je tiens à vous aviser que je serai plus ou moins absent de Flickr durant le mois de septembre. Premièrement, je change finalement de fournisseur internet et je dois me rendre chez ma petite sœur à Île du Prince Édouard quelque temps.
Pour l'instant je suis toujours chez moi en train de finaliser mes travaux extérieur sur le terrain et la maison. Mon présent forfait Internet se terminera le 31 août 2022, je ne pourrais donc plus afficher publier jusqu'à ce que je reçoive et branche le nouveau fournisseur Star Link dans le courant du mois de septembre.
Pour ma photo d'aujourd'hui, je ne savais vraiment pas laquelle afficher, la photo Coppée ou celle Plein Cadre ? Je vous laisse donc le loisir de décider laquelle vous préférez.
Home, Duhamel, Quebec, Canada.
Unable to decide between Copp or Full Frame !
I want to inform you that I will be more or less absent from Flickr during the month of September. First, because I am finally changing my internet provider and I have to go to my little sister's house in Prince Edward Island for a while sometime in September.
For the moment I am still at home finalizing my outside work on the land and the house. My current Internet package will end on August 31, 2022, so I will no longer be able to post until I receive and plug in the new Star Link provider sometime in September, or if I am somewere and have Internet...
For today post, I really didn't know which to post, the Copped picture or the Full Frame one? So I leave it up to you to decide which one you prefer.
Life's a long, long road, if we are lucky. For so long I've just followed the road, it seems with one wheel stuck in a rut at the side steering me along without me being in control. And it has gone on and on. There's a crossroads further down in the picture, in the middle of nowhere. No signs. No landmarks. Just an empty crossroads where two roads meet on the barren moorland. I'm getting near there. Do I carry on straight or turn, left or right, and explore a bit to the side...perhaps it was a waste of time, the wrong choice....nothing to see down there, and return to the junction.
I'm almost at that point, decisions, decisions in deciding if I leave so much of what I've known, work, Cheshire and the hills around, friends, goats, North Wales and take a change in direction.
We've found a place. A long way north. Seven hours drive north to Acharacle, Argyllshire at the far end of Loch Shiel. Mountains, lochs, deer, little beaches with white sand, heather...........
I've seen recently how hard it is to leave everything you've known and strike out somewhere else when my son took his young family off to New Zealand. They'd said they never could have anticipated how difficult it would be to say "Goodbye". My turn soon.
