Mischievous smile... Looking into the depths of the Great Lake, she quietly whispered: "Ambition is the path to success."
Yes, my fine flickr friends - we are right now in the depths of winter. I reckon its got to one of the coldest winters I have ever experienced here in Australia - may have to go the Department of Immigration and ask for a refund ?? ;) - is that with an 'I' or an 'E' - I am sure Ian Campbell will know
Not been on here for a little , getting back in to work and also looking to find a new place to live as huge construction across the road from wakes me up with crazy drilling every morning - been looking in other areas however keep coming back to Bondi - as rosiepaddington, rosiewoollahra and rosievaucluse don't quite have the same ring ;)
Finally got down to the beach again this morning with monster oceans and dark skies - love it and thought I would give you guys a break from the colour of Bali. Hope you are all having a lovely weekend and give me time to catch up. I have put in a few applications for places and also have Jury Duty coming up too which may take up some time if I am selected...so probably at least another 4 weeks before I am back on here full time :).
A Black-Crowned Night Heron perches in the depths of a canal at the Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge, July 20, 2024. This was a shoot-from-the-car one that I was happy to get, given all of the obstructions. Thank-you, Canon!
Sunrise light fills the labyrinthine canyon of the Colorado River as it feels its way south through the sandstone toward the Abajo Mountains, Dead Horse Point State Park, Utah.
This photo was made over three years ago when we visited with friends in Moab for Thanksgiving, not realizing we were taking for granted the ability to be carefree with other people, sharing a meal and good wine without worrying about viral particles. But, the crucible of Covid has forged appreciation for such simple things that perhaps would forever have been taken for granted.
Technical notes: Stitch of three horizontal frames; used a tripod for once, found it relatively helpful.

The king penguin (Aptenodytes patagonicus) is the second largest species of penguin at 70 to 100 cm tall and weighs 11 to 16 kg (24 to 35 lb). In size it is second only to the emperor penguin. There are two subspecies—A. p. patagonicus and A. p. halli; patagonicus is found in the South Atlantic and halli elsewhere.
King penguins eat small fish, mainly lanternfish, and squid and rely less than most Southern Ocean predators on krill and other crustaceans. On foraging trips they repeatedly dive to over 100 metres (330 ft), and have been recorded at depths greater than 300 metres (980 ft).
King penguins breed on the subantarctic islands at the northern reaches of Antarctica, South Georgia, and other temperate islands of the region.
Female Long Tailed Duck fighting a strong current... When I used to hunt many years ago, these were known as "Old Squaw" ducks. In the interest of PC, that name has been pushed aside in favor of the name "Long Tailed Duck". These ducks are among the most adept of the diving ducks, being able to dive to depths of 200 feet and thus being powerful swimmers. They need to be to live and feed in the Indian River Inlet where the currents are swift and the depths reach 100 feet in places.
The Caribbean Sea has about 9% of the worlds coral reefs which covers about 19,000 square miles with the majority located off the Caribbean Islands and the Central American coast. Most of the Caribbean Sea is a lovely blue colour and that is because of the shallow depths, the deeper the sea the deeper the shade of blue this is because the sunlight cannot reach the bottom. When the water is deeper it absorbs all the suns rays which creates a darker blue shade. The sea is so clear because it has very little plankton or other substances and because most of it is shallow which allows the light to be reflected.
To live in the shadows is to exist in a space of duality—a realm where invisibility offers both solace and isolation. It is a life marked by subtlety, where one navigates the world with deliberate caution, their footsteps muffled against the roar of a society obsessed with visibility.
Living in the shadows can mean many things. For some, it is a choice—a deliberate retreat from the glare of public scrutiny. For others, it is a necessity, imposed by circumstance, identity, or fear. In either case, the shadow becomes both a refuge and a prison. It shelters, offering protection from judgment and harm, but it also conceals, leaving those who dwell there yearning for connection and recognition.
There is power in the shadows, however. It is a place of quiet observation, where one can see the world more clearly than those blinded by the light of attention. To exist here is to be a keeper of secrets, a witness to truths often overlooked. In the shadows, authenticity flourishes in ways that the spotlight cannot allow. Without the pressure to perform or conform, one can explore the depths of their identity, discovering strength in their solitude.

Better viewed large, and thank you for your favourites. :)
Whilst taking some bluebell shots in the local woods, I had a double take at this scene! This log triggered my inbuilt "fight or flight" alert system for a nano second. It certainly looked like some reptilian crocodile emerging from the depths.
The more I looked at it the more the logs form and texture seemed to resemble a crocodile. So for a bit of humourous interest I thought I would post it. There has been absolutely no manipulation of the image, this was exactly how this old tree appeared. So if " you go down to the woods today...." as they say!
ACQUA RIFLESSIVA.
L LAGO HA SEMPRE IL SUO FASCINO.
Il Lago Verde si trova in una delle zone più caratteristiche e suggestive del Parco del Sile, uno dei fiumi di risorgiva più lunghi d’Europa che da sempre ha rappresentato un’importante risorsa per gli abitanti del luogo tra storia e le tradizioni.
Quella del Sile è un'acqua davvero bellissima e affascinante.
Acqua di risorgiva, copiosissima, vitalissima.
Sale dal profondo della terra con polle di risorgiva, i fontanassi, e subito forma già un grande fiume.

REFLECTIVE WATER.
THE LAKE ALWAYS HAS ITS CHARM.
The Green Lake is located in one of the most characteristic and evocative areas of the Sile Park, one of the longest resurgence rivers in Europe that has always represented an important resource for the inhabitants of the place between history and traditions.
That of the Sile is a truly beautiful and fascinating water.
Resurgence water, very copious, very vital.
It rises from the depths of the earth with spring springs, the fountains, and immediately forms a great river.

Water lilies, those ethereal blooms that grace the tranquil surfaces of ponds and slow-moving streams, are nature's living poetry. Their delicate petals, like frosted glass, rest upon emerald lily pads, creating a serene tableau. Yet, beneath their fragile beauty lies resilience, for these aquatic marvels rise above the muddy depths from which they grow. They symbolize transformation, as they emerge from the darkness into the light, unfurling their petals as if to greet the sun. In their simplicity, water lilies remind us that even in the murkiest of waters, there is the potential for exquisite beauty and graceful rebirth, a lesson in serenity and the art of flourishing against all odds.
Layer upon layer of sandstone. Incredible what reflected light can do!

Just trying out my photo upload from my iPhone to flickr thru email.
I'll add a description to this photo later after work.
