What a difference a week makes. This time last Friday, we had only found out hours before that we were about to enter a sudden snap three day lockdown with compulsory masks and all the rest of the hard rules. Lines of panic shoppers (no need) had formed all day outside supermarkets. By Sunday, the supermarkets were restocked and quiet and the main elements of the lockdown, to enable swift contact tracing and a break in human contact were over by 6.00pm Monday - this was to prevent the spread of the more contagious UK variety of COVID which had breached containment protocols at a quarantine hotel by unknown means. Masks are still compulsory for another week or so indoors in the Greater Brisbane Area but a majority of Brisbane people are wearing them outdoors too, in the heat and humidity. Well done. It can be frustrating, but think of what the people of Melbourne went through for nearly four months and what the terrible situation is overseas right now around the globe. I am happy to live with this minor inconvenience to stop the spread.

Same place at Tarangire River looked quite different
3 years ago in October 2015 - Picture also in first comment -
Even if much more animals had to come to the last remaining ressource of water then, it was a joy to see it all green :-)

How the picture was originally supposed to look. the size and shape of the build wouldn't allow it to look right, though.
The one to the left was originally designed by Raphael Granas. Please pay him a visit.

Oh, what a difference a year makes. Last year everything was brown and dry and this year everything is green and no 100 degree days.
Thanks to everyone who had a go at spotting the difference!
Congratulations to anyone who found 10 or 11.
I replaced 11 of the buttons in the first photo with buttons of the same shape but a different colour. One of them came out paler than I expected, so I'm happy to accept 10 as the maximum. Slight movements in placement were accidental and not intended to be differences. Hover over the image to see the notes that give the answers.
'Spot the difference' is one of the topics in the scavenger hunt I'm doing this year.
How many differences can you see?
I buy buttons for the textile art and cardmaking that I do, but really I buy them because I like them!

The coat's off and here's the full dress in all its spotty glory. A slip on so no ties, zips of fastenings. As easy as they come, not that I'm an easy girl!
Difference being about 15 min. and a different location The sun is coming over the horizon and once the rays hit the fragile white ice crystals they will melt. It will only take a few minutes for them to evaporate.

Standard stirfry, in order and in peanut oil: broccoli stems, celery, diced garlic & ginger, green pepper, tomato, broccoli flowerets, sliced mushrooms, Chinese cabbage, and fried and sliced veggie 'bacon'.
EXCEPT: after adding the diced tomato, I splashed in 1/3 cup of vodka!
Ever since I had 'Penne ala Vodka' at a great little Italian restaurant a while ago, I've been trying to find ways to add vodka to other foods, and I was curious to see what it would do in Aisan cuisine. I think it made a perceptible difference in the richness of the taste! In any event, my wife thought it was delicious! :-)
Finished off with a sauce made of the juice of a lemon, a glug of Maggi, Chinese Premium Soy Sauce, Chinese cooking wine, a little splash of fish sauce, and a little teaspoon of (aargh!) MSG, with a forkfull of cornstarch stired in at the end.
Served over a bed of Basmati rice and topped with sliced green onion.
- Different sound ..., ancient bells ...
Sounds like past emergencies ..., sounding distant illusions in time ....
Sound errors forgotten ....
They sound different .......
- Diferentes suenan..., los timbres antiguos...
Suenan a urgencias pasadas..., suenan a ilusiones lejanas en el tiempo....
Suenan a errores olvidados....
Suenan diferentes.....
What a difference a day makes. Yesterday there was that compulsion to post an image devoid of colors. Today, the colors are back. While waiting in my car for some Thai food I ordered to go, I noticed that I was parked under a flowering myrtle tree. Focused on some leaves and saw this beautiful melange of colors created by the flowers and the leaves and the blue sky beyond. You bet I didn't hesitate pressing that shutter.
HAVE A RESTFUL SUNDAY, YOU ALL!
This and the previous photo are almost identical, but there is one subtle difference... can you spot what it is? (There's a clue in the title!)
The black-winged stilt, common stilt, or pied stilt (Himantopus himantopus) is a widely distributed very long-legged wader in the avocet and stilt family (Recurvirostridae).
The breeding habitat of all these stilts is marshes, shallow lakes and ponds. Some populations are migratory and move to the ocean coasts in winter; those in warmer regions are generally resident or short-range vagrants.
These birds pick up their food from sand or water. They mainly eat insects and crustaceans.
The nest site is a bare spot on the ground near water. These birds often nest in small groups, sometimes with avocets.
Adults are 33–36 cm (13–14 in) long. They have long pink legs, a long thin black bill and are blackish above and white below, with a white head and neck with a varying amount of black. Males have a black back, often with greenish gloss. Females' backs have a brown hue, contrasting with the black remiges.
In the populations that have the top of the head normally white at least in winter, females tend to have less black on head and neck all year round, while males often have much black, particularly in summer. This difference is not clear-cut, however, and males usually get all-white heads in winter.
Immature birds are grey instead of black and have a markedly sandy hue on the wings, with light feather fringes appearing as a whitish line in flight.
This images was taken in a Salt Pan near Vermont/Onrus Riviera in South Africa.

Generational differences. And the color palette of the older two bench warmers.

A proud grandma posting what her 8 year old grand-daughter thinks about making a difference in life for a school assignment.
The difference between staring at the ocean from behind a window frame
and looking into his eyes of deep from the foamy shoreline, feet naked;
the difference between the sky seen in an astronomy software display
and the summer dome where thousands of millions of glimmering stars shine;
the difference between the glimpse of an image of a mountain snowy trail
and the whiplashing wind when it pairs like a bourdon the shoes rhythm
while you get step after step closer to the crown of fiery rocky peaks.
The difference between a cd and a concert,
between drop and hammering rain,
between a fob and a chain.
The difference between the memory of a voice
and that voice itself,
between a verse found once on a screen
and an old dusty book on an old dusty shelf.
The difference between morning and night,
wheel and plough,
aliveness and life,
simple air and heady oxygen,
a thunderclap and the Jupiter's big red storm.
Or a love and our Love.

The difference between computers and us is we are alive and have emotions and feelings. Computers can have senses and collect information, but they are not alive and have no emotions and feelings. It looks like being alive and emotions -feelings are going together. Being alive, emotions and feelings, senses and the information collected from our brain make us human beings. We function as human beings in our society because of the pressures which affect our feelings and emotions. Fear is the leading one. The additional feelings and emotions which we like to have are love, heroism, helping, enjoying, etc. bond us together to live in a society. We have to be the one which our society wants.
Aliens have to function like us if they exist. They have to be alive and have to have feelings and emotions, but the dominating feelings - emotions and the number of feelings - emotions can be very different. They might have a strong mechanism to control their feelings and emotions.
As human beings, we have to learn to control our feelings and emotions. We can't wait that the biological development created by nature to do the job for us. There is a conflict between what society desires and how we actually function. We are not perfect. The conflict creates for us troubles.
In space, an explosion would not affect technologically advanced aliens. They would be aware of when stars are likely to explode, when comets or asteroids may collide with them, etc.

THORNWICK Bay...(pronounced Thornick... welcome to Yorkshire, lol)
Thornwick Bay derives it's name from "Thor" the God of Thunder because of the roar of the breaking waves on the rocks during a North Easterly gale which pounds the magnificent cliffs.
In the winter when the winds are strong and the weather is bad, when the waves hit the rocks, foam and spray blows up the cliff and over the cafe, but thankfully most people come to visit in the Spring, Summer and Autumn months when the weather is much calmer, and people can sit on the cliff top and admire the fantastic scenery and watch the sun reflect off the brilliant white chalk cliffs which have been cleaned by the winter storms over thousands of years.
The stretch of water North of the Lighthouse was named 'the graveyard' by the skippers and crew of sailing vessels which once they had lost the safety of Bridlington Bay, and without the aids of navigation and weather forecasting which we now take for granted, were at the mercy of the angry weather, Marine charts show hundreds of wrecks all within a few miles radius of Thornwick bay.
A great many people visit Thornwick Bay each year to enjoy wonderful cliff top walks observing the abundance of seabirds including Puffins, Guillemots and Kittiwakes etc.
Always you have the 'risk-takers' who will venture and walk the very narrow and crumbly ridge to get to the furthest point.
Do you spot this one?
Have a lovely day and thank you, as always, M, (*_*)
