These mist covered mountains
Are a home now for me
But my home is the lowlands
And always will be
Someday you'll return to
Your valleys and your farms
And you'll no longer burn to be
Brothers in arms
Through these fields of destruction
Baptisms of fire
I've witnessed your suffering
As the battle raged high
And though they did hurt me so bad
In the fear and alarm
You did not desert me
My brothers in arms

A wonderful few hours out in North Warwickshire with my dearest friend. Coleshill watermill was built during the Medieval period, restored and now owned by the National Trust. Here's the millpond, so smooth and clear, touched by the warmth of the sun.

Hope you like it everyone ! Happy rest of June and many more happy times to come, as we had on this beautiful day.
Dire Straits - Down to the Waterline
Thanks for looking and listening everyone - I really appreciate your views.. thanks.
A cold, frosty, misty morning with snow on the grass. Trudging through the cold, this figure looked so lonely. I thought it was a lovely light. Made me think of this music, which I've loved ever since I first heard it. Mark Knopfler - here he is with Dire Straits back in the day ...
Please right click on the link and open in a new tab to hear the music from their album "Brothers in Arms". Press play to start the music, thanks !!
Many thanks for looking, your faves and comments, my friends. Every one is appreciated.

...We sleep until the morning comes
So don't you open your eyes
'Til it's dawn...

AMAZING SOLO!! Mark Knopfler - Telegraph Road - Dijon 2013-06-30
These beautiful cows with their young ones were in a muddy field. They looked so glum ... I felt sorry for them. But they make a nice picture and so I painted them and told them we'd try to make them happier. Here's a wonderful piece of musical artistry for them (and you!) which I thought might help everyone who's finding the run up to the festive season not as joyful as they would wish. I hope my cows make you happier and the music as lovely as I find it.
For all of you, not just the cows !
Created with the help of Topaz Impression 2 and PicMonkey, with a texture of my own.

A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
Finds a streetlight, steps out of the shade
And says something like, "You and me, babe; how about it?"
– Dire Straits, Romeo & Juliet

This is another processing from my earlier posted : Romeo and Juliët...
Wish you all nice and sunny Whitsun days !
Calling Elvis
Is anybody home
Calling Elvis
I'm here all alone
Did he leave the building
Or can he come to the phone
Calling Elvis
I'm here all alone
–Dire Straits, Calling Elvis

"Well a long time ago, came a man on a track... Walking thirty miles with a sack on his back... And he put down his load where he thought it was the best... He made a home in the wilderness..;"
Un endroit stratégique, une ambiance particulière (et pas seulement à cause du brouillard matinal d'avril)...
J'adore ce carrefour, liant l'avenue des Dunes qui file à gauche, longée par des poteaux électriques datant des années 50; et l'avenue du Platier qui plonge dans la Réserve naturelle avec ces pieux, souvenirs eux aussi d'une autre époque.
C'est un dépaysement total, un autre monde, celui qui nous relie aux paysages préservés du passé. Et qui pourrait évoquer l'ouest américain au temps du télégraphe....

"Fantastique atmosphère. Un ciel cotonneux et une composition remarquable: tu as l'art de sublimer le nulle part, bravo !" (René CARRERE / www.flickr.com/photos/143018951@N07/)
"C'est un endroit hors du temps... Sans référence...
Une superbe photo Regisa.. Bravo." (Georges LISSILLOUR / www.flickr.com/photos/geolis06/ )
Water of love deep in the ground
But there ain't no water here to be found
Someday, baby, when the river runs free
It's gonna carry that water of love to me...

The Calistoga water bottling plant sits in the city of Calistoga - go figure...everyday, the crusty old driver and his loyal pup make the rounds in their rust jalopy with cases falling from the rear...
Uuuuuffffff - que agobio a soportar eso a diario - menos mál que vivo en las islas !!!! ;)
Aaaarrggghhhh !!! I'd hate this everyday - thank goodness I live in the Canary Islands !!! ;)

HDR self portrait. This consists of 3 RAW images +/- 2EV. I had to stand perfectly still and trigger three consecutive shots using the remote in my left hand.
The location reminds me of one of my favorite songs "Telegraph Road" by Dire Straits.
Our latest addition to the BONAIRE YanuYanu Resort.
The YanuYanu Marina and resort are part of the FIJI TUARUA estate north of the Blake Sea with direct access to Linden waters, the Coastal Waterway and DireStraits. From our "Lookout" Bar you can even watch ongoing regattas and races, while enjoying a cocktail, served by our staff.
The YanuYanu Marina offers slips from 50-300 prims and also slips for daily rent, reserved to our YanuYanu Resort guests.
On top we provide slips with the "Dirty Oar" houseboat for those, who love the Marina life.
this was another another 'didn't have my tripod, wasn't planning on taking any SPs' shot but i really couldn't resist. so, given the technical contraints and the fact that my boys were running around like hooligans and i had all of two minutes to take anything, i'm going to call it good.
on another note: i'm really enjoying exploring all that DC has to offer, but i have been missing far away friends.
Los payasos me transmitieron siempre un fondo de nostalgia, e incluso tristeza, que intentan ocultar de forma histriónica.
The clowns transmitted always a bottom of nostalgia, and enclosedly sadness, which they try to conceal from histrionic form.

These mist-covered mountains
Are a home now for me
But my home is in lowlands
And always will be
Someday, you'll return to
Your valleys and your farms
And you'll no longer burn
To be brothers in arms
Ironically, the countryside and farming is in Dire Straits thanks to the politicians of the UK.
Try to learn my new gear better. Cloudy day seems pretty nice for monochrome photography. So we spent some hours in the fields. Just in some minutes I caught myself on the fact that I sing an old song of my favorite Dire Straits...
Thank you for all the comments and favs, my friends. Have a good weekend!
