What do you think of when some one asks about San Francisco? I'll bet that the Golden Gate Bridge comes to mind. Every city seems to have a defining iconic symbol that somehow conveys what it is known for. For the city by the bay it is this bridge. The bridge is considered by many to be the most beautiful and most photographed bridge in the US, if not the world. Try finding a travel guide or website that doesn't have its image prominently displayed.
I traveled to San Francisco often during my working career. I think one year I was there ten times on business trips, and I would often head down to the bridge and hope the fog would roll in. It is an amazing experience to see the bridge clearly, and then within a few minutes, it would be gone. Unfortunately, those trips were before my passion for photography was reignited. How I wish that I had brought a camera with me. Of course, this was before the iPhone was invented. Whenever I now travel to San Fran, a camera and a stop near the bridge is mandatory. This photo was taken from the Sausalito side of the bridge from Fort Point State Park. It was taken toward the end of rush hour one evening a few years ago.

thick blanket,
veiled the sky,
dawn light prevented,
mist coving,
tiny water drops covering,
every leaf,
branch,
twig,
flower and web,
clarity of the world reduced to detail,
droplets hanging,
defining the hidden,
able to see clearly,
what usually unseen,
time to stop,
breath,
time to reflect,
ponder,
dream,
once mists clear,
return to labour,
serving humanity.
We have been watching the Elk River melt- watching it thaw across the river on the sunny side! And today? A roadgrader was sent to scrape our road off! Tomorrow will be the first time in about 9 days that we can get out at all! We haven't gotten mail or garbage pickup, either, so we are anxious to get back to civilization!! YAY!
I saw this manduvi tree (Sterculia apetala) in Frederiksted, St. Croix, USVI.
It is also called the camoruco, or anacagüita.
Its defining features are the large buttresses at its base.
The red wall beside the tree is Fort Frederiksted.

"If you truly love Nature, you will find beauty everywhere". Vincent Van Gogh
So the question is, is this beauty there if you did not find it? But lets not get stuck in a philosophical discussion.....
By the way, these are clivia stamens, and the scene about 10mm wide.

Description: Barnard 150 (B150, LDN1082) dark nebula is a type of interstellar cloud that is so dense that it obscures the light from the background emission or reflection nebula or that it blocks out background stars. The extinction of the light is caused by interstellar dust grains located in the coldest, densest parts of larger molecular clouds. The form of such dark clouds is very irregular as they have no clearly defined outer boundaries and sometimes take on convoluted serpentine shapes. The largest dark nebulae are visible to the naked eye, appearing as dark patches against the brighter background of the Milky Way. In the inner regions of dark nebulae important events take place, such as the formation of stars and masers.
B150 is also known as the Seahorse Nebula. With a bit of imagination the dark nebula shown in the image above roughly outlines the shape of a seahorse with its head pointing downward as it floats in a sea of stars roughly 2 degrees wide in the northern sky.

In spite of cutting the red saturation by 50% in post, these roses still look THAT pink. They similarly saturated my eyes while in the garden.

Un monde qui ne pourrait s’émouvoir de sa beauté serait bien près de la faillite. Edmond Gréville
"A world that could not be moved by its beauty would be close to its loss."
for those who love to explore, this is for you and for those who know me, here's another picture posted with emotion......on Friday best mate and I went to London with our bestest of friends to a restaurant called 'Dans le noir' the trip was arranged and masterminded by just one of our group for a very special anniversary and the rest of us were kept in the dark.......here's the rub, this shot was taken by me at St Pancras station whilst having a glass of wine on route, I was just blown away by the setting sun casting shadows on our travelling companions.........40 minutes later we entered 'dans le noir' for our meal, a restaurant that serves your meal in complete darkness, the waiters, or guides are absolutely blind, for a short period we entered into their world, we laughed, we had fun, the waiters touched our lives and we touched theirs.....but I, had a defining moment, for some, life is complete darkness regardless of wether they can see or not, and for others, it is showered in light, either with sight or from their outlook on life on a daily basis, we are all blessed with imagination and through this gift we are all capable of producing a form of image in our minds eye.......how we view our lives is down to us as individuals.
