I experienced a rare sunset while visiting Half Moon Bay, California. The 18th hole overlooks the Pacific Ocean and the sunsets are usually cloudy with no color; however, on this particular night the sky was amazing with wonderful colors reflecting onto the clouds. These golfers were getting out of their cart and walking to the 18th green which overlooks the ocean. (Edited in Lightroom, Photoshop and Topaz)
A very very special moment we experienced while standing on this plane watching this sun dog forming and turning the whole winter landscape into something utterly magical.
With Spring upon us, these late winter conditions made for a beautiful final performance.
Cumulous clouds and snow surround this cute wooden barn.

Fantasy Faire only has a few more days left, so if you haven't gone by, you should! Check out the beautiful sights, and give to a great cause. It's amazing how much work has been put into every last place, and I can promise you can find at least one sim that really speaks to you. If the people themselves don't. Most, including myself, have experienced the effects this miserable disease can have on themselves and loved ones. Strength comes in hope and unity, however, every little step getting us closer to a brighter future, I'm sure of that.
If you want to check out the sims or just support RFL and the awesome creators contributing to the cause, head over to my blog to catch a ride over!

I'm a couple days late, for this tribute. We have all experienced this in some version. If you haven't someone you KNOW has!
✈️ : Elvion
She sits quiet in the classroom,
hardly talks to anyone
Always wishing she could just fit in,
while the other kids are having fun
She looks for someone who will understand,
but no one ever seems to wanna hear
Tells herelf she's the one to blame
If only she could disappear
She cries awake on her bed,
she lays, hoping they'll leave her alone
She thinks her only escape is to run away little girl, run
Run away little girl, run
The face she sees in the mirror
reflects the ugly things they say
She doesn't realize the hurt she tries to hide
Is what makes her feel this way
She cries awake on her bed,
she lays, praying they'll leave her alone
She wipes a tear from her face
And waits for her angel to come
She blames herself for the words they say
Inside she feels so numb
She thinks her only escape is to run away little girl, run
This is a small part of an exhibit at Birmingham Museum.
The artwork was done by Donald Rodney (1961- 1998) and titled as "Land of Milk and Honey II" Rodney was born in Birmingham. He used objects in his work to explore aspects of the human experience. His father migrated to Smethwick from the Carribean in the mid 20th century, in search of a better life in the "Land of Milk and Honey" The Vitrine contains coins and milk. They represent the 'sourced' reality many migrants actually experienced. The material he used will deteriorate and change over time.

When I started doing this an experienced photographer told me 'if you're not careful you end up taking the same shots over and over again'
Over time I've come to understand he was 100% correct
This shot has shadow., reduced and varied light., in fact it reminded me of an oil painting where the artist deliberately plays with those things to add interest.,
It's not 'classic' photography
But it was my favourite shot of the day
Why? … Simply because it was different
From my original photo taken in Brittany in 2007.
Vitré is a town located in the Ille-et-Vilaine department of Brittany, France. It has a population of approximately 20,000 people and is known for its medieval architecture, including a castle, ramparts, and half-timbered houses.
During World War II, Vitré was occupied by German forces and its residents experienced hardships and restrictions imposed by the occupying army. The town saw heavy fighting between the German army and the Allies, and was eventually liberated by American forces in August 1944.
The people of Vitré played a significant role in the resistance movement during the war, and their sacrifices and efforts are remembered and honored to this day.

Experienced one of the worst weathers in recent summers in Iceland that day with extremely windy conditions and heavy rain. Captured this from the viewpoint at Hraunfossar Lava Falls.
Hraunfossar - Lava Falls - are beautiful and unusual natural phenomena. Clear, cold springs of subterranean water seep through the lava and run as tiny waterfalls and rapids into the Hvita River.
Baby African Bush Elephants, scientifically known as Loxodonta africana, are incredibly adorable and endearing creatures. They are born weighing around 200-250 pounds (90-115 kilograms) and stand about 2.5 to 3 feet (76-91 centimeters) tall at the shoulders.
These young elephants are highly social animals and rely on close bonds with their family members for protection and learning. They are under the constant care and guidance of their mothers and other experienced female elephants within the herd. Baby elephants stay close to their mothers, learning essential survival skills, such as finding water, identifying edible plants, and understanding social behaviors within the herd.
Play is an essential aspect of their early development. They engage in playful activities, such as mock charging, splashing in water, and chasing birds or other small animals. Through play, they hone their motor skills and social interactions, preparing them for adulthood.
Baby African Bush Elephants are heartwarming creatures to observe in the wild, and their presence contributes to the rich tapestry of life in the African savannah.

At Eeersterivier, we experienced very high winds and of course equally high seas. Climbing down by the band of rocks which acts as a barrier between the beach and the sea, I had to make a quick getaway, but not before managing this shot!

Absolutely one of the saddest vibes I have experienced for a long time. I had the most awesome rural drive seeing all the almond trees in blossom and stopped by this old restaurant bar in the middle of no where. The parking lot is in terrible condition and as I walked thru the doors the empty sadness within was overwhelming. Not a person in sight. I wandered about clicking a few photos and as I entered the bar an old man was behind it staring at the tv unaware I was there. I spoke loudly asked if lunch was served. He struggled to make conversation and shared his kitchen is shut down for inspections. I dont think it will be reopened. Everything was in the state of neglect . Old age, illness and poverty have taken their toll. It literally gave me a headache and feeling of sadness.

When I recently spent a weekend in Prague, I experienced and captured many great moments. But there was exactly one that led me to the beautiful city on the river Vltava and that was this one.
I once wished, if only for a few minutes, to stand completely alone on the famous Charles Bridge. A bridge that is crossed by thousands of people every day in a city that never really comes to a rest.
And indeed I succeeded. After I had to wait a bit until the last party-goers had more or less straightforward crossed the river on their way to bed, I was the only one. What a great feeling.
It really didn't take very long until the first photographer (the first one after me) joined me and the moment was over. But these few minutes are now mine forever.
Als ich kürzlich ein Wochenende in Prag verbrachte, habe ich viele tolle Momente erlebt und festgehalten. Doch es gab genau einen, der mich in die wunderschöne Stadt an der Moldau geführt hat und das war dieser hier.
Ich habe mir gewünscht einmal, wenn auch nur für ein paar Minuten, völlig allein auf der berühmten Karlsbrücke zu stehen. Einer Brücke, die täglich von tausenden Menschen überquert wird in einer Stadt die nie wirklich zur Ruhe kommt.
Und tatsächlich ist es mir gelungen. Nachdem ich etwas warten musste, bis die letzten Partybesucher auf dem Weg ins Bett mehr oder weniger geradlinig die Fluß überquert hatten, war ich der einzige. Ein grandioses Gefühl.
Es dauerte auch wirklich nicht sehr lange, bis der erste Fotograf (also der erste nach mir) sich zu mir gesellte und der Moment vorbei war. Doch diese wenigen Minuten, gehören nun für immer mir.

Well what an incredible sunrise me and my three clients experienced this morning on my one day autumnal Lake District workshop at Windermere.
We were driving en-route to Rydal to shoot the tree when the colours in my minibus wing mirrors lit up with stunning pinks and blues. Without hesitation I decided to park up at Waterhead and walk down towards Holme Crag. It was an inspired choice due to the copious amounts of beautiful little boats that made for great subjects. Here's one such boat that enjoyed being surrounded by the mist that rolled on the surface of the water.
HUGE thanks to Carl, Dave and Dean for their company today. It was a really enjoyable day's photography and a quick hi to Chris Sale, a YouTube vlogger who I bumped into on the shoreline of Rydal mid-morning. It was great to chat with you Chris.

If you have not experienced the Lion King this may be lost on you but this is where the Mountain Lion King is crowned or so I imagine at least in the misty morning light. I have to believe that any cougar would love the patch of ground between Sedona and Flagstaff as its territory, it meets the mountain criteria and I would be lion if I said it wasn’t beautiful to roam in. With the poor jokes out of the way and Sedona in our rearview we move onto the higher and more northern ground of Arizona

I have experienced something serious in my life. I have just returned from the hospital diagnosed with a heart attack. (Exactly they call it "Heart arrhythmia" ). I'll have to adapt and change my whole life now, even on flickr! My time will be even more limited than it is now, but I want to be faithful to all my friends here as much as possible. It may be that my comments will be a bit shorter and that I will not be active on flickr in between for a long time. I hope for your understanding, but my life and my health is important to me in this case. Maby it takes a long way to come back to my normal life. Please excuse me.
Be a rainbow in somebody’s cloud.

this year, i hadn't yet experienced a dewy morning. (and y'all know how much i love dew.) i had no expectations as i walked to the park yesterday. as i squatted, i saw droplets forming. more and more came into existence and then became illuminated.
when this happens, i get an inexpressible feeling. it's not that i'm excited for the "perfect" photograph. it's more a sense of presence; a witnessing of something natural and amazing, which unfolds in front of my eyes.
spring has sprung friends! this dew party invites you to celebrate, commune, and savor.
Undoubtedly, I loved Eddie the first time I ever set eyes on him- climbing the apple tree to get a better look into the house.
He was the owner of the wildest heart I ever experienced in any cat. In the time I knew Eddie, I was never able to get close to him, nor was anyone else. I don't know what his background was that caused his skittishness.
Eddie stayed around the house from winter into summer. He came for food every day and I would talk to him out the window. If I made any attempt to come into the yard while he was there he immediately ran off.
I longed to have Eddie come into the house where I could care for him, but, no deal. He wanted no part of that idea.
One day, he was just gone. I never saw him again even though I searched for him and waited.
I loved Eddie. His wild, wild beauty, his wild, wild heart. Where ever you are, I miss you so, so much. ~*~ Lana

I was uninspired trying to come up with something interesting for this theme until I looked in my "Measure & Level" drawer and found a couple old rulers that have obviously been around for a while.
The green smear of paint on the top ruler was my grandfather's tool color and the one on the bottom is actually stamped "Made in the U.S.A."-- very uncommon these days.
Anyway, Happy Macro Monday everyone! :)
"I climb mountains so I can see where the sun spleeps."
(stumbled upon that lovely quote on the Internet, but don't know who the author is)
We were heading back from the Sass de Putia (Dolomites, South Tyrol) to our holiday residence and stopped at this point hoping to see the alpenglow on the peaks of the Geisler Group (Odle)
And we were very lucky and experienced a breathtaking alpenglow that evening (I might upload an image of it when I finally was able to sift through the many photos I took that evening) ... this photo was taken while we were waiting for the alpenglow to begin. The sun was slowly setting behind the mountains and created lovely golden hues : )

"Ich besteige Berge, um zu sehen, wo die Sonne schläft."
(bin im Internet über dieses schöne Zitat gestolpert, weiß allerdings nicht, wer der Autor ist)
Wir waren auf dem Rückweg vom Peitlerkofel (Dolomiten, Südtirol) zu unserer Ferienwohnung und hielten an dieser Stelle an in der Hoffnung, das Alpenglühen auf den Geislerspitzen (Odle) zu sehen
Und wir hatten Glück und erlebten an diesem Abend ein atemberaubendes Alpenglühen (ich werde vielleicht ein Bild davon hochladen, wenn ich endlich in der Lage war, die vielen Fotos, die ich an diesem Abend gemacht habe, zu sichten) ... dieses Foto habe ich aufgenommen, während wir auf den Beginn des Alpenglühens warteten. Die Sonne ging langsam hinter den Bergen unter und erzeugte schöne goldene Farbtöne : )

"Solidão is a Portuguese term meaning loneliness or abandonment. It is an emotion experienced by many people and can take various forms, such as emotional distance, lack of social connections, and feelings of isolation. It is important to acknowledge that solitude is a human experience and that support and help is available for those who are dealing with it. It is also important to seek connection and community with others, which can alleviate the effects of solitude."

Ships to Shore 2017 - Steveston
One of the world’s largest tall ships, the Kaiwo Maru made a special guest appearance to Garry Point Park in Steveston, BC in honour of Canada's 150th anniversary.
Built in 1989, this majestic tall ship sailing from Japan is 361 feet in length and has over 29,000 square feet in sails.
Also known as the 'King of the Sea'.
Kaiwo Maru is a Japanese four-masted training barque tall ship.
She was built in 1989 to replace a 1930 ship of the same name.
The Ships to Shore celebration attracted thousands upon thousands of people, anxious to catch what possibly could be a once in a lifetime glimpse of this magnificent sailing ship.
In the background there were nautical displays, carnival activities, food concessions, fireworks and much more...
As night fell, a live band drew and captivated a large audience of people.....truthfully, none of that seemed to distract myself nor many other dedicated photographers..
I know I couldn't 'steer clear' (so to speak) from this extraordinary ship's side, nor could I afford wasting one precious moment of what night fall was offering.
The dimming sky provided ongoing colour and light photog opportunities that enhanced the magic of this fine lady and her scenic surroundings.

Melbourne has experienced a wonderful Indian summer this year, and as a result, not only are the Autumnal colours starting to appear, but there are still plenty of beautiful blooms.
I spotted these "Red Cherry" French Marigolds on a walk. They stood out against their green backdrop with their showy red and orange petals.
Tagetes is a genus of annual or perennial, mostly herbaceous plants in the sunflower family Asteraceae. They are among several groups of plants known in English as marigolds.
Melbourne experienced a colder and wetter than average winter last year, which then became the wettest spring ever recorded. However, summer did eventually arrive, albeit late, with glorious days of sunshine that brought out beautiful blooms on all the flowers. This included my Elina Rose, which is one of the strongest rose bushes in my front garden.
Elina is a very prolific, constantly flowering Hybrid Tea rose bred in Northern Ireland by the Dickson family in 1983. It was released in 1984. Each rich cream coloured flower comprises around 25 petals. Elina’s perfect classic rose shape, long straight stems, mild fragrance and attractive foliage ensures it is a popular cut flower variety and sought after by florists.
" ...she experienced each year this lifting of the spirits as August slipped away."
I know many who don't share my sentiments for the passing of summer....yet, I dearly love this time of year and look forward to the cozy, nestled at home coming months....my most loved of all.
We experienced a lot of rain and cloudy weather while staying in Page, Arizona. The back country roads we wanted to travel were largely inaccessible. Thus we visited Horseshoe Bend several times because we could travel there on paved roads. The 1,000 feet deep canyon is amazing. While we did see the sun burst through storm clouds during our stay, I confess it wasn't at the time of visiting Horseshoe Bend. But the magic of Photoshop helped me get the sky I wanted!
Happy Slider Sunday!
