Wintertime: one tree branch without leaves seen from below against a semi overcast sky.

Happy Wednesday to you all.

No glitzy invites please. I would rather have comments left from my friends.

My 1000th upload to flickr since I joined in February. Without the inspiration i've got from everybody else on flickr, I would have only taken a small fraction of this number, so thankyou to you all.

Roki Dog sleeps wherever he chooses. Tonight it is beside his bed, using it as a pillow.

Fondly remembered

This scene always reminds me of J. R. R. Tolkien tales. I don't know, it always seems like it could be somewhere in the Lord of the Rings movie...

The laboratory has been destroyed completely in April 2009. Too bad... I think it was a magnificent place on Cornell campus..

I wasn't carrying a macro lens today (it's December for goodness' sake!) so I had to shoot this unexpected hoverfly with the big tele-zoom. Luckily it focuses pretty close and the light was good. It's one of a group of similar-looking hoverflies in the Syrphidae family, either Epistrophe or Syrphus sp.

Work visit with some time to myself on the weekend

This is just something I decided to tinker with and post on a cold dreary day.

Thank you all for your kind words, prayers and well wishes for my father in law, who had major surgery yesterday. So far so good!

Muchas gracias por sus lindas palabras y buenos deseos para mi suegro, que tuvo una operacion en la aorta ayer. Todo bien hasta ahora!

It's always a pleasure to find a rose blooming in the garden in the depths of December. I suspect the hard frosts of the past few days will have put an end to them now. Raindrops on petals have become something of a trope with all the rain we've also had.
