HIVER
C' est un ciel gris,empreint de tristesse qui annonce,
Le retour des mauvais jours, sans joie ni plaisir.
La nature est en veille, les roses sont fanées, le jardin morose.
Dans les coeurs un désert de glace a pris place, détresse sans nom.
Les douleurs disparaitrons ,doucement et ne seront plus que souvenirs
Les mois d hiver passeront, jusqu'aux prochaines roses .
Les poésies de Marie**

Will reason and peace be restored again?
Killing young girls and boys at a concert is not the answer, I am so sure about it.
My musical education has a wide and special room for Manchester, where most of my favorite bands and songs came from, so I have an emotional bond to this city.
Peace, please.

A gorgeous staircase, though I think they need to trim the climbing plants, they seem to be taking over.
Thank you for your favourites. :O)

Here in NSW, Australia we have been declared 100% in drought. This drought is very serious and shouldn't be taken lightly. The farmers have no grass only dust, their animals are starving to death or have died, young animals are vunerable because their Mums have died or are too weak to feed them. Hay is in shortage, this is a huge problem. Hay has been transported from Western Australia and Tasmania but this hay will only last about a week. The biggest heartache of this drought is the suicide rate in farmers. They just can't take anymore.
Here in Newcastle a man had a dream to take a truckload of goods to farmers In Coonabarabran. That dream became huge. About $80k worth, over 200 pallets of goods, and over 100 people helping him. 8 semi-trailer loads drove to Coonabarabran and visited 12 remote areas. The farmers are doing it real tough...they cried 😢 when they saw what had been donated.
I organised donations through my work and we took two car loads to the park where it was all collected. I stayed all morning photographing, watching the huge response.
One mans dream became a reality. Look it up up Facebook "Fill a truck for farmers".
Aussies are known to help out their mates in need, this is who we are...
This weekend we may get a little rain, we all pray for this...

While I was down at the estuary and Mini Marina last Sunday I found these delightful stairs going up to a very posh house.
Although I don't like stairs without risers I think I could manage these, especially as they have a good handrail and safety bars too.
Much better viewed large.
Thank you for your favourites. :O)
A very attractive house with a double staircase entryway. Posh or what?!!
Thank you for your favourites. :O)
Table for two
Just me and your memory
Between you and me
It's over and done
I think of you
And cry like a baby
At a table for two
Party of one...

Filling stations and grub stops are far and few on I-10 between Indio & Blythe...
An unusual sighting for the area. This Australian Ringneck Parrot was seen at Mt Macedon yesterday.
Shot in the rain and gale force winds with the 300 mm lens. My preferred birding lens was at hand but I wasn't going to change lens in those conditions.
For Sale at Amerhidl (Skoura oasis) ! (needs some work)
The oasis of Skoura's claim to fame is its long line of kasbahs along two seasonal rivers. Its appearance may be deceptive to many, being so long, it may recall images of a forest more than a huge oasis. Still it is even larger, most of the oasis runs north from the road.
The most impressive among the many attractive kasbahs is the Amerhidl, dating back to the 17th century. Its design and grand size made it fit to illustrate the back of the Moroccan 50 dirham note.

CN 8801 and CN 2533 bring the H-GALMEM1-13A through TRRA’s “Hi-Speed Line” while the St. Louis cityscape opposes over the variety of power. For the first half of GALMEMs journey it was the CN duo but later on they picked up the Gevo and CP ACU at Falk on the K-Line
Following 'Tea with the Queen' at Windsor Castle, 'Air Force One' with President Joe Biden aboard departs Heathrow for his next stop.... Brussels
Having driven up to LHR and stood for several hours for AF1 and the POTUS 'circus' to arrive and depart, it was somewhat ironic to find out later that after departure, VC-25A 92-8000 took a sightseeing route down to the South Coast, tracking right over my house before following the Sussex and Kent Coastline and turning near Dover for Belgium

Eyes for another....
Visiting locations i love with my new camera. Will be gone for a bit as I am off to seek some warm weather and family time :)
In a time when dinosaurs walked the earth
When the land was swamp and caves were home
In an age when prize possession was fire
To search for landscapes men would roam...

Outside of Washington DC's Union Station you can always see long lines of taxis waiting for fares. Back in my college days, I drove a taxi so I can understand how hard these cabbies work. They put in very long hours doing what can sometimes be a dangerous and thankless job. The next time you ride in a taxi, please tip your driver generously. They really deserve it!

I know that Isa is not very happy right now so I thought I'd edit and old photo I liked specially for her. :D
Isa, you're pictures are not bad at all, you keep improving! <3 I hope you don't go for a year, or shorter.... we don't want you to ever go *hug* <3
Ich liebe dich Isa, kisses from me and all my girls. :D
This is the path where I would walk with my friendly, nice and warm-hearted Norwegian friend Marie , if our towns Freistadt and Hakrehamn were any closer. I think we would have a great meeting full of joy and fun.
Marie is one of my first Flickr contacts and one of my best friends here. She made me happy with all her comments full of humour and kindness and especially with her wonderful testimonial for that I say "Thank you so much, Marie".

For Sliders Sunday
A quick fun snapshot taken at the Botanical Garden this spring. I walked around, noticed some motion on the surface of one of the ponds there, and saw this small shoal of small fish flocking together in a heart shape. They were being fed at that moment, I guess.
I had forgotten that the camera's aspect ratio was still set to 1:1 (there's a dial for the different aspect ratios on the fixed lens), so here 1:1 was more of an accident than actually intended (as was f14). Usually I won't use the preset 1:1 aspect ratio because the Lumix's 12.8 megapixels will be reduced to 10 megapixels then (it's got something to do with the LX100's "multi format sensor", apparently), but unlike with my OM-D, where I only ever use 4:3, and crop the image later in LR, if desired, I often switch between 4:3 and 16:9 on the Lumix.
Processed in LR and Luminar. The water had been very muddy and dull, so I thought that this needed some colour to jazz it up a little. I don't recall each step, as this is an image I've been working on from time to time. But as a finishing touch I used a slightly tweaked Luminar preset, one of Wim Arys' "Atomic Colours", Bismuth, if I remember correctly. Added a sky texture in ON1, too.
A Happy Sliders Sunday to you all!
For a short time, Amtrak’s California Zephyr saw 161 on rotation. This was Amtrak’s Phase I heritage unit and replaced the previous Phase I, 156, after it hit a truck and got severely damaged. Just like 156, 161 also has been retired as a few weeks ago it caught fire in Washington D.C. and was burnt to a crisp.
For the Crazy Tuesday topic "Sound".
A life without music is unthinkable 😊
Probably considered old-fashioned in today's "streaming music" world - I like my music on CDs and MP3 players. No WiFi - no problem! No power, no problem. Speakers both mains and battery powered are available here. A week with no power, WiFi or mobile phone signal last winter taught me to plan for maximum resilience! So everything from Jazz to opera is to hand ... hopefully I'm always wired for sound!
