The Expectation is to Stop and Smell the Roses
But in the mountains there are only wildflowers to enjoy
So I will stop to live that moment
No speed involved to my finish line
Just the day, a moment, and a vista like none other
I could always sing and give Julie Andrews a run for the money
I am all alone with only the trees and birds to share my company
So hike your own hike
Speed to adventure, if you must
And explore the planet we all share
You might just find me with my shoes and socks off
And only a smile as I sit and take in a view.
Another work of short poetry or prose to complement the image captured one afternoon in Big Bend National Park at a roadside pullout along the main Basin road. The view is looking to the west across the Chisos Basin area to The Windows off in the distance. Because of the several thousand foot decline in elevation present across this national park landscape, I had to angle my Nikon SLR camera slightly downward to capture a more sweeping view. The more distant peaks and mountains would be pushed higher into the image but leave enough for me to include some of the blue skies and clouds above.
For processing the image, I chose to work with Aurora HDR Pro to better bring that complete setting in the image. I later exported a TIFF image to DxO?PhotoLab 4 where I did some final adjustments with contrast, saturation and brightness for the final image.
Moments before this shot I was thinking about to start packing my equipment.
The sun was already high in in the sky, and most of the times uncovered by the clouds...
But, without to much expectation, I decided to do one more shot..
Never thought about getting this result...
Somethings you do not expect. // Or not, at this particular place. // Yet, there it is. // White over rust. // Couldn't be better. // Leave it, as it is.
Patient expectation, I cannot emphasize enough, is epistemologically essential to the anticipatory understanding of everything. Anticipatory patience assumes that only the most trivial truths land in our laps without waiting. The deepest truths always take time and come with a price.

Robbie im Gefängnis. Wartend, dass seine Schwester kommen möge.

You already know him. It's Robbie, long ago he had landed the biggest coup, with his sister together. They had stolen the art painting by William Turner and blundered a high ransom sum – what they anyway as a legitimate inheritance, but they could not prove this fact (but that's another story ...). Unfortunately, Robbie was so broke that he spent something of his money too soon and was caught unfortunately. Since then, he has been sitting behind bars – staring at the dirt of the barred glass and the bubbles in the glass turning into dream bubbles – in yearning expectation that his sister saves him. Will she be able to free him?
As a reminder look at:

Ihr kennt ihn bereits. Es ist Robbie, vor langer Zeit hatte er den größten Coup gelandet, mit seiner Schwester zusammen. Sie hatten das Kunstgemälde von William Turner gestohlen und eine hohe Lösegeldsumme ergaunert – was ihnen sowieso als rechtmäßiges Erbe zustand, sie diesen Tatbestand aber nicht beweisen konnten (aber das ist eine andere Geschichte... ). Leider war Robbie so pleite, dass er zu früh etwas von seinem Anteil ausgegeben hat und leider geschnappt wurde. Seitdem sitzt er hinter Gittern – und starrt auf den Dreck der vergitterten Scheiben und die Blasen im Glas werden zu Traumblasen – in sehnsüchtiger Erwartung, dass ihn seine Schwester rette. Wird sie ihn befreien können?

Images of Australia: 82/100
Contrary to expectation, Uluru (Ayer Rock) is not Australia's largest rock. That honor goes to Mt Augustus, pictured above.
Mt Augustus is up to two and half times bigger than Uluru, covers 4,700 hectare and is 717 meters at its peak. It is an ancient rock known as an ''ínselberg", that is, an island mountain rising above the alluvial plain. The rock supports a variety of vegetation species, as well as birds and other wildlife.

Candid eye contact street photography from Glasgow, Scotland.
Black and white re-edit of a previously published colour shot captured in May 2017. One of my all-time favourite candid shots from Glasgow. Enjoy!
Wet paeony bud.
Well, it must be at least a week since I last published an image of a wet paeony. Too long, anyway :)
This is for the Wednesday Macro group. The bud is about an inch across I guess.
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image :)
শঙ্কা আর দীর্ঘশ্বাস জাগে। তবু বড় প্রিয় এ দৃশ্য জেলে পল্লীর নারীদের কাছে। তীরের কাছাকাছি মৎস শিকারী নৌযান আসার শব্দ শুনলেই সেদিকে ছুটে যায় ঘরের ছোট্ট বাচ্চারা। ভাবে, সমুদ্রে মাছ শিকারে যাওয়া বাবা ফিরলো বুঝি । তাদের ছুটে যেতে দেখে মায়েদের মনেও আশা আর নিরাশা জাগে একই সাথে। তারা একবার ভাবে, কত দিন কেটে গেছে। স্বামী হয়ত আজই বাড়ি ফিরবে। আবার ভাবে, নাহ - দু সপ্তাহের কথা বলে গিয়েছিলো। তা হতে এখনো তিন দিন বাকি। ছেলেটা আজও বাবার কাছে যাওয়ার বায়না ধরে কাঁদতে কাঁদতে ঘুমিয়ে পড়বে। এসব ভাবতে ভাবতে অজান্তেই মৃদু বা ভারী দীর্ঘশ্বাস বেড়িয়ে আসে। তাদের নিথর প্রত্যাশা বড় জীবন্ত হয়ে ফুটে থাকে সন্তানদের চোখে । ছবিটি বাংলাদেশের উপকূলীয় জেলা পটুয়াখালীর সমুদ্র ঘেঁষা গ্রাম কুয়াকাটা থেকে তোলা। - Here rises uncertainty and deep sigh. Still this view is very satisfying to the women of fishermen’s quarter. Kids rush to the seashore from their home as soon as they hear the sound of a fishermen's boat near the beach. They think their fisherman father may have returned. While watching them rushing toward the seashore, their mothers also seem hopeful and despair at the same time. They think long time have passed their husbands went to work. May be he will return today. Again they think- No, He said he will return within a couple of weeks. Still three days are left to that couple of weeks to be over. The son insists to go to his father yet and sleeps crying. A long breath comes out while thinking all these. Their tranquil expectations remain lively in the eyes of their kids. This picture was taken at the village ‘Kuakata’ adjoining to the seashore in the coastal district ‘Patuakhali’ of Bangladesh.
A little more romance. . .a little more patience. . .

I won't be around today until I finish my project-- it's almost done--and other things I have to do. Have a good day!!!
This amazing view I found with my camera on the walk in the Picos de Europa. Place where you would like to spend part of day and just listen the natural rules :)
We stood in great expectation as a parting in the cloud shone a strong light over the hills in the distance. I was hoping it might hit the ruined bothy, but the light began to difuse the closer it came.
Есть такое интересное растение белый ясенец, которое можно найти в северной Африке, центральной Азии и южной Европе, может самовозгораться в жаркую погоду. Воспламеняются лишь эфирные масла, которые выделяет само растение, но сам ясенец от этого не страдает.

There is such an interesting plant, white ash, which can be found in northern Africa, central Asia and southern Europe, which can ignite spontaneously in hot weather. Only the essential oils that the plant itself releases are ignited, but the ash tree itself does not suffer from this.

"When you wake up in the morning, Pooh," said Piglet at last, "what's the first thing you say to yourself?"
"What's for breakfast?" said Pooh. "What do you say, Piglet?"
"I say, I wonder what's going to happen exciting today?" said Piglet.
Pooh nodded thoughtfully.
"It's the same thing," he said.
