Took this near Fillmore Utah. One of those pictures that has always stuck in my mind, just didn't know which SD card it was on. Figured I better post it now before I lose it again.

BLOOD OF EDEN – PETER GABRIEL & SINEAD O'CONNOR
... And when you left the fields of yellow
faded in the winds of time
the golden ears of corn bowed down
finally beyond all reason or rhyme
But now my heart has risen up
the fields are red adorned with flowers
the bluest mountains reach towards the heavens
the promise of Spring is surely ours
I thought there would never be anyone else
to replace you in my field of dreams
but gentle words flow like a river
and settle within me or so it seems
I want to believe in the everafter
when our souls will meet again
but for now I must seek the quantum of solace
in the absence of the gentlest rain
The silent tears roll down the years
and bathe me in a rosy glow
the sunshine warms me; holds me closely
I feel immense that all I know
Is carefully parcelled; tied with ribbon
red velvet bow soft to the touch
a secret gift to be opened slowly
unwrapped; unveiled and loved so much
Inspiration is my succour
that piques my salient desires
I know that you will understand me
be happy someone tends these fires
the burning embers that you left me
now ashes crumble in the dirt
dust is dust that once was earthbound
in Heaven there is no more hurt
My heart sings out the freedom of nature
like a bird on the wing I soar so high
above the mountains through the clouds
swooping towards an open sky
I reach the stars just as the night falls
and cloaks the earth in silent reverie
sweet dreams my love; I know you're smiling
your generosity sets me free
Love is freedom to be ourselves
no matter what direction we take
the ones who love us are happy for us
and theirs is the love we do not forsake
Be still my beating heart; be silent
only when the end is nigh
for I am alive and my joie de vie
my joy of life cannot be denied ...

On my way back to the house I saw this and had to pull over...at a local cemetary. I've always believed that acsending rays were the angels ladders earthbound to help and save. Descending rays were ladders for lost souls to find there way home.

Gestern in Deutschland unterwegs war keine Zeit für viele Versuche zu dem Thema Elemente! Diese Motiv habe ich in zwei Varianten kreiert mit Feuer und mit Rauch der Feuer symbolisieren soll. Meine Entscheidung viel ausf Feuer indem sogar die Wassertropfen zu sehen sind, wenn auch nur wenige wirklich sichtbar sind.
Ich wünsche Euch eine heitere und entspannte Woche, liebe Freunde! 💚 😊
Yesterday in Germany there was no time for many experiments on the topic of elements! This motive I created in two variants with fire and with smoke the fire is to symbolize. My decision was to make a lot of fire by even seeing the drops of water, even if only a few are really visible.
I wish you a cheerful and relaxed week, dear friends! 💚 😊
Hier, en Allemagne, nous n'avons pas eu le temps de faire beaucoup d'expériences sur le thème des éléments ! Ce motif que j'ai créé en deux variantes avec le feu et avec la fumée le feu est de symboliser. Ma décision a été de faire beaucoup de feu en voyant même les gouttes d'eau, même si seules quelques-unes sont vraiment visibles.
Je vous souhaite une semaine joyeuse et détendue, chers amis ! 💚 😊
Happy Bonfire night to everyone..
Old mans beard of course but one of my favourite plants to photograph, especially when it has gone to seed.. a bit like me really ;)))
The plant is Wild Clematis Clematis vitalba otherwise know as Traveller’s Joy, Virgin’s Bower or the descriptive Old Man’s Beard. It is a climbing, scrambling plant often covering hedgerows and walls and woodland edge and is particularly prolific in some areas such as the Forest of Dean, the Chiltern Hills etc. and although it may grow in the same way as a vine or cheap clomid Honeysuckle it is actually a member of the Buttercup family.

the flutter of wings
taunting,

earthbound,

♪ARENA - How did it come to this ? (Soignies 2015) ♪
Something now, is something that will always be
This is far beyond some earthbound human plan
In this universe we're merely specks of sand
Nothing more than man
Tell me - How did it come to this?
What we do, may light an unexpected fuse
Every left or right may lead to consequences
If the butterfly should flap its wings
If an angel sings
Tell me - How did it come to this?
Tell me - How did it come to this?
Once a child, I tried to hold eternity
Take a leap of faith and never fear the fall
But as I floated to those distant shores
I would hit the wall
How could I believe...
There was something on the other side of it all
More than any man could truly understand
More than I could comprehend
So how did it come to this?
Honestly, I never thought I'd seek adventure in my life
Never thought that I would walk so dark a road
In this universe we're merely specks of sand
Nothing more than man
Honestly, I never thought I'd read such judgement in my life
Never thought that I would fall upon this road
And if that butterfly should flap its wings
If an angel sings
So how did it come to this?
How did it come to this?

David Bowie would have been 76 years old today. And on January 10th 2016 we lost a legend when Bowie passed away. I was so upset that morning when I heard I ended up calling out sick from work. Local station WXPN played Bowie songs for 24 hours and I spent that day just singing along to all my favorite songs.
My favorite song of David Bowie (off my favorite album Aladdin Sane) is Panic in Detroit. This version of song was performed in my favorite city - Philadelphia. What was your favorite Bowie Song - post it in the comments below!!

Earth and Water
Nothing special for "Four Elements", as I had a busy week including the weekend (and I also started too late as usual). I actually wanted to include the other two elements in a more abstract way by using a recently purchased glass prism (for some light / colour reflections to symbolise "air" - not really obvious, is it?; and I also just couldn't get it right with that new photographic toy), and the star filter to create a "spark" that could set off a small "fire", but the tiny, rather shapeless blobs of water that you see here (I had perfectly round droplets on my mind, and ended up with blobs) were probably too small and shapeless, so the light burst didn't work either. So I decided to stick to two elements, "earth" and "water". Earth, or rather soil, and water make things grow, like the Geraldton waxflower with its tiny blossoms (0,7 cm / 0,27 inches in diameter) and brightly green needles, and the olive tree, which provided the wood this small spice measuring spoon shaped like a tiny scoop is made of (what you see here is the 3,5 cm / 1,3 inches long scoop part). Soil borrowed from the balcony, waxflower twiglet borrowed from a bouquet, processed in Luminar 3 (only minor adjustments this time, like small and big details, a little HSL sliding) and ON1 Photo RAW (HDR filter "Glow" and LUT filter).
A Happy Macro Monday, Everyone!
Ich hatte diese Woche, Wochenende inklusive, leider nicht viel Zeit, um Verschiedenes auszuprobieren, und so blieb es bei meiner ersten Idee - und davon habe ich auch nur die Hälfte umsetzen können: Erde und Wasser. Dafür habe ich ein Gewürzschäufelchen aus Olivenholz mit einem kleinen Zweig Wachsflower ("Hakiges Chamelaucium", Blütendurchmesser 0,7 cm, beheimatet in West-Australien) und vom Balkon geborgter Erde dekoriert und die Blüten mit ein bisschen Wasser beträufelt (mir schwebten perfekt runde Wasserperlen vor, übrig blieben Klekse hier und da). Die beiden anderen Elemente wollte ich abstrakt darstellen, "Feuer" mit einem kleinen Lichtstern als Funken, aber das hat wohl die ausgeprägt-unförmige Klecksform der Wassertropfen verhindert, ein Sternchen wollte mir jdf. dieses Mal nicht gelingen. Und für "Luft" wollte ich mit einem gerade erst gekauften Glasprisma Lichtspiegelungen bzw. Farbspielereien erzeugen, was aber hier auch nicht so ganz geklappt hat, da muss ich wohl noch üben ;-) Also blieben Erde, Wasser und quasi ein "halbes" Foto übrig ;-) Entwickelt in Luminar (nur geringfügige Anpassungen, Details klein und groß, HSL-Regler) und ON1 Photo RAW (HDR-Filter "Glow", LUT).
Ich wünsche Euch eine schöne Woche mit vielleicht steigenden Temperaturen, liebe Flickr-Freunde!
Three Turkey Vultures working over a seal carcus on Caspar beach, Mendocino County, northern California, part of a dozen on this task. Vultures thrive in Texas and, now I see, in California, too. Always elegant in flight, they conduct their earthbound business despite the disdain I sometimes feel for their important role in the ecosystem.

Earthbound fireworks are the best. I love explosions of color. Many thanks to my neighbors that plant incredible flowers.

The gate of science...
...leads on to the gates of mathematics, architecture, ornamentation, etc. Their basis is earthbound, as they are based on the fundamental physical laws of nature, but they have the ability to slowly lift these laws (with the help of the heart :) and show also a way to unknown worlds.

The last earthbound quartet of ties/sleepers settled among the rocky ballast at the east end of the Rocksprings trestle leads the eye westward along the elevated rails, parallel to Rocksprings Road and its familiar power poles, towards town and then the mountains of the Angeles National Forest, arrayed faintly along the skyline. A nice small feature of this east-to-west viewpoint is the quirky little cluster of dirt roads around the base of the nearest power pole :-)

Knowing the Caturday challenge was "On Higher Ground" I knew this would be interesting. Rena wants nothing higher than the bed.
But today, maybe knowing the challenge, she jumped all the way up on this bookcase shelf. It's 28 inches off the ground. 71 c.m.
She's trying to decide how she can get over to the bed which is 2 feet away. My little heroine!
I was driving along the trunk road somewhere in the state of Kelantan, 450 km to the northeast of Kuala Lumpur. The panoramic vista of the area was very pleasant with the sweeping view of rice fields on both sides of the road. Towards the end of the field, I then saw these beautiful beams of sunrays coming from between the clouds high above the village.
The moment I saw it, I swiftly pulled over for a capture.
But then, I was a little frustrated looking at what I got on camera as it didn’t recollect fully on what I saw. The actual sight in the real life was actually way better than this image as it looked biblical to complement the already breathtaking view.
My editing helps a little but nothing compared to the real thing.
The Durie Hill (Wanganui) pedestrian tunnel was built in 1919 and is the only earthbound elevator in NZ. A pedestrian tunnel leads 205 metres inside the hill to the elevator which rises 66 metres. Two viewpoints of the city are located at the top and the Memorial Tower has steps that lead up to even greater heights and views.
Getting back to where I'm most comfortable, outdoors, hunting the "good light". I had the pleasure of shooting one of the most photogenic children ever...

I get lost in your eyes
And I feel my spirits rise
And soar like the wind...
Is it love that I am in?
I get weak in a glance
Isn't this what's called romance?
And now I know
'Cause when I'm lost I can let go
