A lone Maple declares itself in autumn in the depths of a forest of Arbor Vitae. It does not stand out like this when green, or bare. Its shade tolerance will, in due time, lead it to dominance in this place.

The lupine flowers were nice, but upon closer inspection, I liked the way the water droplets formed on the lupine leaves even more.

Who remains on high as others venture below?
Who declares them right,
And what makes it so?
Questions as these may tear at one’s soul,
But what it matters, no one really knows.

“Even now,” declares the LORD, “return to me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning.” Rend your heart and not your garments. Return to the LORD your God, for he is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love, and he relents from sending calamity.

Nothing was left to do that I could see
Unless to find that there was no one there
And declare to the cliffs too far for echo,

In silence, if in this he is aggrieved,
Break silence now or be forever silent.
Let him say why it should not be declared so."

My first visit of the year to Loch Rusky, a favourite haunt for a sunrise. Nice to see the wee boats back out - always a sign spring is round the corner. I liked the frost on the side of the boats melting as the sun rose.

When the lighthouse was built in 1915, it replaced the earlier 1867 lighthouse. The National Historic Lighthouse Preservation Act provides for the Coast Guard to declare some lighthouses surplus, and for their ownership to be transferred to historical, non-profit or local government entities following an application process and review. Nine lighthouses were identified in the fall of 2001 as part of a pilot program to transfer such lighthouses. Rondout Light was one of those nine.[ Rondout Light was transferred from the Coast Guard to the City of Kingston in 2002.
It is currently managed by the non-profit Hudson River Maritime Museum.

À la pointe de la grande péninsule nord de Terre-Neuve se trouve la première preuve connue de la présence européenne dans les Amériques. Ici, les expéditions nordiques ont navigué du Groenland, construisant un petit campement de bâtiments en bois et en gazon il y a plus de 1000 ans. Dans un décor époustouflant de falaises escarpées, de tourbières et de côtes, découvrez les fascinants vestiges archéologiques du campement viking, déclaré site du patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO en 1978.
At the tip of Newfoundland’s Great Northern Peninsula lies the first known evidence of European presence in the Americas. Here Norse expeditions sailed from Greenland, building a small encampment of timber-and-sod buildings over 1000 years ago. Against a stunning backdrop of rugged cliffs, bog, and coastline, discover the fascinating archaeological remains of the Viking encampment, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1978.

but I am arrogant enough to mean "lower forms of animal life" when I refer to animals. Thus, when I say that I like animals, I do not necessarily include my own species, among whom are large numbers of individuals for whom I have no fondness at all, and some whom I hold in utter contempt. Indeed, I sometimes wonder why "You're an animal" is an insult; it seems to me that, if animals could talk, "You're a human" would be one of their favorite insults :-)

Eilean Donan Castle, Loch Duich, Dornie, Scotland
Can you get anything like an original composition at a honeypot location? Well I'd normally say 'No' but I did a search on the castle on Flickr and a quick Google search and I only found one shot of one of these rings and it was used differently in the shot. I'll tentatively say then that this is at least a very rare composition.
Both on my way to Skye and coming back there was no interesting light so I decided to try to shoot it from the parking area for the community centre. On the return trip I spotted these rusty mooring rings on the slipway and thought they would make an unusual foreground element for the castle. The image is compiled from 7 focus stacked images to try to get it all pin sharp. Probably overkill but better safe that sorry.
I should declare that I've taken a duplicate of the image, slightly enlarged the castle and blended the two together so in effect a focal length blend. I was trying to use the distortion effect of the 15-35mm to do this but found I needed to lose too much of the sky for it to work.
I'll leave it up to you as the viewer to decide whether it's 'permitted' or not? As I've declared it and it's basically 2 duplicate images blended I feel it is no different to blending water or focus stacking but if you fell differently then that's your right.
Thanks for viewing.

As the world tentatively eases lock-down in some countries I had a friend tell me about the 'evil customs' they had to go through just to get home. I guess demon customs would be dreadful sticklers to the rules. Just don't hide any human contraband.
We had a blast with this uniform set by Toksik which seems to have an amazing ability to make event the most tiny of shapes look good. Its available in both male and female styles.

Semipalmated Plovers are visual hunters. They run a few steps, pause, and then lunge at prey on the ground, grabbing smaller prey or pulling at worms much as robins do. They
nest in arctic tundra and forage in mudflats, agricultural fields, river margins, sewage ponds, and lakeshores. Semi-palmated Plovers roost in marshes or on beaches.

"The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His handiwork." (Psalm 19:1 NKJV)
This is my first post of the milky way on my photostream, and it is probably a good time to address a few things here as fellow photographers may be curious. Multiple exposures and stacking or tracking, is the gold standard especially in astrophotography; this results in clean images with excellent clarity and balanced exposure. I acknowledge that, and have the highest respect for photographers who use these techniques. This image however, is a single exposure capture of the milky way. My photographs, so far, are all single exposures, including this one. There are obvious drawbacks in single exposure photography but I also see advantages. For me, I am prepared to work within the limits of single exposure work and accept the trade-offs. I prefer a simpler workflow in photography - both on-site and in post-production.
While it was really challenging trying to photograph the night sky in pitch blackness, I enjoyed the process and it is truly amazing standing beneath a canopy of stars.

LITTLE BEE: *Sits in pretty pink prunus blossom tree and sobs, and sobs and sobs.*
VOICE ONE NEARBY: *Quietly.* “Bumble? Bumble!”
VOICE TWO NEABY: *Equally quietly.* “What is it, Little Ladybird?”
LITTLE LADYBIRD: “I hear crying, Bumble. Do you hear it too?”
BUMBLE: “I do declare, Little Ladybird. I wonder who would be crying on such a beautiful day?”
LITTLE LADYBIRD: “I think it is coming from within that prunus tree over there, Bumble. I can see the blossoms trembling.”
BUMBLE: “Well, why don’t you fly up and see who it is, Little Ladybird.”
LITTLE LADYBIRD: “Oh! Do I have to, Bumble? Couldn’t you just climb the tree and find out for yourself?”
BUMBLE: “Yes you do, Little Ladybird!” *Shocked.* “We bears, even little ladybird bears like you, and flower bears like me, have a responsibility to comfort anyone who is unhappy or crying.”
LITTLE LADYBIRD: “Yes I know Bumble, but you also know that I am shy and scare easily. What if it is a monster in that tree? What if it is a ladybird bear eating monster, Bumble?” *Trembles.* “I’m scared.”
BUMBLE: “Oh you don’t need to be scared, Little Ladybird. There are no such things as ladybird bear eating monsters.”
LITTLE LADYBIRD: “But how do you know, Bumble? Have you ever met a monster before, even a non ladybird bear eating one?”
BUMBLE: “Well no, Little Ladybird, but if it is perchance one, you can fly away quickly. Listen to that sobbing. It is so heartbreakingly sad. We cannot just go by and ignore it. It is our duty to help.”
LITTLE LADYBIRD: “Alright Bumble. I’ll try and be brave.”
BUMBLE: “Good girl, Little Ladybird. You can do it.”
LITTLE LADYBIRD: “Flies up quietly into the prunus tree and peers through the blossoms and sees Little Bee crying in the fork of the tree. She flies back to Bumble on the ground below.*
BUMBLE: “Well done, Little Ladybird. I know you are shy and easily scared. That was very brave of you.”
LITTLE LADYBIRD: “Thank you, Bumble.”
BUMBLE: “Well, what did you see? Who is crying in the tree, Little Ladybird?”
LITTLE LADYBIRD: “Well, you were right, it wasn’t a ladybird bear eating monster in the tree, Bumble. It was a little bee bear who is sobbing and sobbing and sobbing like his poor little heart is broken.”
BUMBLE: “Then we must help him, Little Ladybird!” *Walks up to tree and calls from below.* “Hullo! Hullo up there! Hullo?”
LITTLE BEE: *Sobs and sobs, then snuffles. “Hul… hullo?”
BUMBLE: “Hullo there, little bee bear. What troubles you so that you are crying?”
LITTLE BEE: “Who…” *Sniffs and snuffles.* “Who are you?” *Opens eyes wide as he spies a friendly looking golden mohair bear beneath the tree.*
BUMBLE: “I am Bumble, and this is my friend and ward, Little Ladybird.” *Points paw to Little Ladybird as she flies and lands in the tree on a branch next to Little Bee.*
LITTLE LADYBIRD: *Waves paw at Little Bee, smiles shyly, then blushes pink beneath black and white mohair plush.*
BUMBLE: “Little Ladybird is a little bit shy. Who are you, little bee bear?”
LITTLE BEE: *Sniffles and wipes tears from eyes.* “I am…” *Gulps.* “Little Bee.”
BUMBLE: “Well, how do you do, Little Bee.” *Smiles in a friendly way.* “Good, well now we have the formalities out of the way, why are you crying Little Bee?”
LITTLE BEE: “Well, I am new here to this place, and… and…” *Tears well in eyes.* “And I became lost. I’m looking for Daddy Jesse’s garden. Do you know Daddy Jesse? He is very nice. He looks after a big bear family and makes them cakes and throws tea parties for them, and… and…” *Gulps back tears.* “And he gives them big cuddles and lots of soft kisses. I need to get unlost, so that I can play in his garden with the other bears at Daddy Jesse’s house, like Paddy and Scout and Rosie.”
LITTLE LADYBIRD: *Quietly.* “Oh Bumble. He sounds like a very nice Daddy, just like the kind we are looking for.”
BUMBLE: “I’m afraid we don’t know Daddy Jesse, but I think Little Ladybird and I would like to meet him.”
LITTLE BEE: “Why…” *Snuffles.* “Why would you like to meet Daddy Jesse, Bumble?”
BUMBLE: “Well, you see, Little Ladybird and I are looking for a new home, Little Bee.”
LITTLE BEE: “Why Bumble? Why Little Ladybird? What is wrong with your house?”
LITTLE LADYBIRD: *Looks sad and shakes her head.*
BUMBLE: “Unfortunately, Little Bee, Little Ladybird and I recently lost our home, which was in a beautiful old oak tree in the middle of a garden of an old house. One day some awful noisy… things.”
LITTLE LADYBIRD: “They were monsters, Bumble.” *Trembles with fear.* “They were big, noisy monsters made of metal, with big, sharp teeth.” *Trembles more.*
BUMBLE: “Well, the monsters or whatever they were, attacked our tree and tore it out of the ground, and they built a big, ugly house of grey boxes on top of where our home was. So,” *Sighs.* “Now we are looking for a new home.”
LITTLE BEE: *Puts paw to mouth.* “Oh that is awful for you, Bumble and Little Ladybird!” *Gasps.*
LITTLE LADUBIRD: “I know, Little Bee! I was scared. I had to fly away, and Bumble ran through the undergrowth to get away.”
BUMBLE: “Perhaps, Little Ladybird and I could help you find your very nice and kind sounding Daddy Jesse and his garden, Little Bee?”
LITTLE BEE: “Oh!” *Gasps and smiles. “Oh would you? Could you?”
BUMBLE: “Yes of course we can, Little Bee! We are bears after all, so we must help everybody and everbear in distress.”
LITTLE BEE: “Claps paws in delight.*
LITTLE LADYBIRD: *Shyly.* “And… and maybe your Daddy could give us a new home in his pretty garden.”
LITTLE BEE: “Oh I’m sure he would! He always says that there is always room for one more bear! Even though there are two of you, I’m sure he could find somewhere lovely for you to stay at his house.”
BUMBLE: “Then let us see if we can’t find him together, Little Bee: you, me and Little Ladybird.”
LITTLE BEE: “Oh thank you, Bumble and Little Ladybird! I feel better already!”
LITTLE LADYBIRD: *Smiles shyly.* “That’s good, Little Bee.”
BUMBLE: “Which way did you think you came from, Little Bee?”
LITTLE BEE: “Over there somewhere, Bumble, somewhere beyond the park and the meandering brook.”
BUMBLE: “Then that is the way I will walk, and you will fly. We can stop and rest along the way when you feel tired.”
LITTLE LADYBIRD: *Shyly.* “I get tired quite a lot, because I am only a little girl ladybird bear, you see, Little Bee.”
LITTLE BEE: “Maybe… maybe we can hold each other’s paws for reassurance and strength, Little Ladybird.”
LITTLE LADYBIRD: *Looks down thoughtfully at her black mohair paw.* “Well, I…”
BUMBLE: “I think that is a very lovely idea, don’t you, Little Ladybird?” *Looks seriously at Little Ladybird.*
LITTLE LADYBIRD: “Oh! Oh, alright Little Bee. Thank you.”
BUMBLE: “Good! Let’s go! The first thing I need to work out is how to get over the babbling brook!”
LITTLE BEE: *Offers paw to Little Ladybird.*
BUMBLE, LITTLE LADYBIRD and LITTLE BEE: *Begin the journey looking for Daddy Jesse and his garden together.*

A rather pointless exercise on a restless Friday night. If I sustain one more packing injury, I'll start identifying as a vegetable.
The original plan might have been to showcase a pose by SAPA. But let's put it this way - it's almost 2AM, there was wine, and my brain cell count wasn't that great to begin with - all I have now is a few solitary neurons floating in grape juice. So here we are, and...yeah. No.
Maybe I should already declare myself to be a vegetable.

Northern Parulas rapidly flit and hop primarily through the upper levels of the forest and subcanopy, but during migration they also forage in the understory. They tend to flutter around at the tips of branches quickly plucking insects or reaching out to grab prey. Males are particularly vocal during spring migration.

Église Notre-Dame de l’Assomption. L’église de Crans est mentionnée dès 1145, lors de la fondation, dans le voisinage, de l’abbaye cistercienne de Chassagne. Elle dépendait alors de l’abbaye bénédictine d’Ambronay (prieuré de Chalamont). Au milieu du XIIIe s., elle était déclarée détruite (erma et diruta). Il faut croire qu’elle fut reconstruite peu après, car elle présente un choeur tout à fait caractéristique de l’architecture cistercienne de la fin du XIIIe siècle. Elle figure d’ailleurs dans le testament de Gérard de La Plaud qui, en 1299, fit un legs pour son « œuvre » (operi), c’est-à-dire pour ses travaux de gros œuvre. Le clocher a été détruit sous la Révolution; il n’en reste que la souche, sur la travée de chœur ; il a été remplacé par un petit clocheton de bois. La Révolution est aussi responsable de la disparition d’une partie de la sculpture. Les archives ne mentionnent pas de transformations importantes de cette église au XIXe siècle. Il y avait cependant des projets de voûter la nef et d’abattre la chapelle nord pour la remplacer par un transept (vers 1860). La façade ouest est précédée par une galonnière. Le portail est particulièrement remarquable par son tympan sculpté qui représente une Vierge à !’Enfant assise, s’inscrivant dans un trilobe, et environnée d’une dizaine d’anges. La voussure extérieure, en tiers-point, est ornée de feuilles, et, à la pointe, d’un agneau. La nef est couverte d’une charpente à rampants lambrissés et entraits engoulés, ce qui est un cas unique dans le département de l’Ain. Cette charpente passe pour avoir été entièrement faite à la fin du XIXe s., mais, en 1613, la nef était déjà couverte « d’un lambressis fait en voûte ». La travée de chœur est voûtée sur croisée d’ogives avec clef ornée d’une « tête de feuilles ». L’abside, à chevet plat, est couverte de même, les branches d’ogives portant sur des culots ornés aussi de têtes de feuilles. Le mur absidial est percé de trois fenêtres étroites, celle du milieu plus haute ; on rattache cette disposition à la tradition cistercienne. La porte latérale sud de la nef donnant sur l’extérieur est ornée d’un tympan trilobé montrant une main bénissante entourée de deux animaux symboliques. Ce portail semble contemporain de celui de la façade ouest (fin XIIIe – début XIVe siècle). Sur le côté sud de la travée de chœur, s’ouvre la chapelle Notre- Dame fondée en 1425 par le curé de Bourg Pierre Balandrin, sous le vocable de Notre-Dame. Les branches d’ogives sont simplement chanfreinées et la fenêtre est sans remplage. Une inscription latine commémore cette fondation : Anno Domini Millesimo quatercentesimo vigesimo octavo Dominus Johannes Ballandrini curatus Burgi in Bressia fecit fieri hanc capellam in honorem Beate Marie Virginis ipsamqu e dotavit pro quatuor missis in eadem singulis hebdomadis perpetuo celebrandis. Sur le côté nord de la nef, s’ouvre la chapelle Saint -Jean-Baptiste-et-Saint- Jérôme, construite en 1516 par Béraud du Molard, curé de Crans et premier doyen du chapitre de Meximieux. Cette chapelle comprend deux travées voûtées sur croisées d’ogives; la clef de la travée ouest est ornée d’un écusson frappé d’une croix (de Savoie ?) et celle de l’ouest, de trois clous. Les fenêtres sont à remplages flamboyants. L’église renferme plusieurs statues anciennes : Vierge à !’Enfant, saint Jérôme et saint Jean-Baptiste, en pierre polychrome, sainte Apollonie et sainte Catherine en bois polychrome. Le maître - autel est surmonté d’un retable en bois doré avec colonnes torses du milieu du XVIIe siècle. Autels du XVIIIe s. dans les chapelles. La Sauvegarde de l’Art français a accordé 120 000 Fen 1999 pour la remise en état de la charpente et de la couverture.
