It's that very special moment of the day when the lights go down and the sun is barely visible anymore. Mist and gloom are everywhere creating suspense and beauty at the same time. It's #Twilight.
Go out and shoot this atmosphere this week, then submit your new photo to the #FlickrFriday group. We'll showcase the best ones on Flickr Blog next Friday.

It strikes me that in many western Christian religions gaining knowledge (as interpreted from Eve’s eating of the apple) is wrong, sinful and punishable. On the other hand, in eastern philosophies knowledge and wisdom are prized – enlightenment being a good thing. Food for thought.

For this week's #FlickrFriday I had my hubby break out his #Gibson ES335. It fit the theme perfectly this week. First, it's one of the most beautiful guitars Gibson ever made. And second, it's the guitar he wrote the song he sang to me at our wedding almost 12 years ago. Now that's #HighFidelity
Oat milk and real milk on our doorstep. You may not consider semi-skimmed milk to be 'real', but maybe someone else in the group will post a photo of unpasteurised, unhomogenised organic whole milk.
the fields are already soaked -the little stream still not spectacular but in the past several times rose up to a flood when keeping on raining;20 years ago it looked like the danube;

"Oh flowers, how lovely!" was my dear wife's response as I returned from a quick shopping trip. She didn't even ask what I'd done. Of course what I'd actually done was to grab a subject for this week's FF homework. It didn't take long for her to work that out. The vase is an art deco design by the well known 1920s-1930s British ceramicist Charlotte Rhead.
The photo was taken as shown using an old filter, which does not fit my current lens, smeared with Vaseline and balanced precariously on the front of it while I held a reflector to bounce some windowlight back onto the flowers. Thank goodness for delayed shutter release. Processing was light (by my standards anyway) with some colours boosted and texture and a small vignette added.
