A small stream flowing from the distant 'Hopelessness' Hot Spring area which reminded me of the old Sargasso Sea.
The distant storm seems to be evolving as well!

SLEEPING IN THE FOREST
by Mary Oliver
I thought the earth
remembered me, she
took me back so tenderly, arranging
her dark skirts, her pockets
full of lichens and seeds. I slept
as never before, a stone
on the riverbed, nothing
between me and the white fire of the stars
but my thoughts, and they floated
light as moths among the branches
of the perfect trees. All night
I heard the small kingdoms breathing
around me, the insects, and the birds
who do their work in the darkness. All night
I rose and fell, as if in water, grappling
with a luminous doom. By morning
I had vanished at least a dozen times
into something better. ❤
Thank-you to all who take the time to comment on my photos, it is greatly appreciated! Stay well my Flickr friends! <3
Slowly showing more and more coloration, this Panther Chameleon (Furcifer pardalis) will have much more red streaking his body in about a year's time. You can already see this coloration coming in around his eyes and mouth, with light flourishes painting his legs and abdomen. He's got loads of crickets to eat before then, though--he eats over a dozen a day!
And chameleons really are quite evolved! Seemingly every facet of their being is highly specialized for survival, from their gripping, pincer like feet, to their prehensile tails, to their separately-swiveling eyes, to their color-shifting skin, to their darting tongues. Most chameleons share these incredible traits, be they tiny Leaf Chameleons (like the smallest of all, Brookesia micra, which grows to only an inch in length) or the Parson's Chameleon, which grows to over 25 inches in length, or the size of a house cat!
This panther chameleon, named Queso, lives in captivity.
The change, the evolving of things, taking steps in the history of time, to get the best possible outcome, the most comforting, the best ballance. There is the peace, at the end of the path.

Sint Nicholaskerk is the most seen and at the same time overlooked church in Amsterdam as well as being one its most recent constructions, no one can miss this iconic structure upon arrival to the city walking from Centraal Station your eye is immediately drawn to it at 58 m in height it towers over the city skyline.
This Roman Catholic Church was designed by Architect Adrianus Bleijs and is a nod to the past combining elements of neo-Baroque and neo-Renaissance styles, completed in 1887 it was made a minor Basilica in 2012.
The church is dedicated to the 4th century charitable patron saint of children that became our Santa Claus as well as the patron saint of sailors and prostitutes, another winning combination.
In the Netherlands Santa Claus is known as Sinterklaas and a feast has been celebrated for over 700 years in his name and adopted in the early part of 20th century the tradition of leaving small gifts in children’s shoes was practiced on Dec 6th which has evolved now to become a Dec 5th evening tradition of gathering of family and friends to exchange gifts and laughter.
While Dutch Sinterklaas celebrations are mainly for the children its adult component is an annual grievance poem written to the recipient that must rhyme and be read out loud by the subject at the evening party all in good fun but beware you may get as good as you give.
I took this on Sept 10th, 2017 with my D750 and Nikon 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens at 58mm 15 sec f/16 ISO100 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia, Topaz , Luminar and DXO
Disclaimer: My style is a study of romantic realism as well as a work in progress
"For me, becoming isn’t about arriving somewhere or achieving a certain aim. I see it instead as forward motion, a means of evolving, a way to reach continuously toward a better self. The journey doesn't end."

Seattle continues to grow at an ever-increasing rate. The downtown region has gained so many buildings, particularly on its northern side, that one can no longer see the Space Needle from this vantage.
Here is the same view back in September 2013.

Back in the day photography close-ups of nature was very appealing to me and while my interests have evolved into different subjects and styles I always find my way back to my photo roots of macro. Recently Reid Northrup a fellow Flickr-ite has posted the most dreamy flower photos he uses LensBaby Soft Optic II and after looking into their line of lenses I picked up their Velvet 85 thanks to B&H Photo and their daily deals. Although the results are different between the two lenses I’m happy with my choice and how it fits in to my photography style.
BTW: check out Reid’s photostream he does some amazing work.

Human nature... the survival instinct makes us selfish and even cruel at times.
We use categories to classify things and people we encounter... it's how our mental models are built...
And then we try to optimize these models by using stereotypes... it's a slippery slope and prejudice and abuse are on the ugly side of it.
Change starts from within, from one's own self... racism and other discrimination will not disappear unless we accept that stereotyping has limits... it will not disappear if we don't start to cooperate, change and evolve... and hopefully one day erase these stereotypes.
Kilchurn Castle.
Kilchurn Castle evolved in a slightly different way. It was built in about 1450 by Sir Colin Campbell, first Lord of Glenorchy, and it started life as a five storey tower house with a courtyard defended by an outer wall. By about 1500 an additional range and a hall had been added to the south side of the castle. Further buildings went up during the 1500s and 1600s.
