Self-isolation for an extended time places constrains on us as photographers. Painters can continue to paint whatever their imagination can conjure, but we photographers have to find things to photograph in the confined space we now live in. For years, I was saying that my imagination is my Iceland, my African Safari, my Antelope Canyon - you get the idea. Now I am constrained in terms of where me and my camera can go and so this is the put up or shut up time. I am now building up a series (code name Covid-19) that is shot exclusively from within my apartment building (mostly my apartment). Please consider looking at all images in the series and tell me what you think.
The way a camera sees me.

Created for The Award Tree's Winter Treatment challenge.
My sister lives in rural Michigan where she and her husband have a beautiful house on lots of land with a good-sized, man-made pond in the backyard. Deer come down to the pond for the salt lick, to graze and to drink. It's also a safe haven for them during hunting season since Judy & Peter don't allow hunting on their property. Still, I cringe every time I hear a rifle shot when I visit at that time of year.
In the summer, they're harder to see since there's no white snow to set them off. But there's no missing them when they come to the near side of the pond and start munching on the flowers in my sister's garden. At that point, Judy lets the dog out (a lab) and the deer take off in a flash :-).
Thanks to my sister for sending me the original photo! She took it from inside the house looking out over the upper level deck (see below).
THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT AND FAVES
ON THE REACTIONS I WILL TRY TO RESPOND BACK
Fontein op het Plönlein in Rothenburg ob der Tauber
Rothenburg ob der Tauber zou als inspiratiebron gediend hebben voor Walt Disney toen hij de tekenfilm Pinokkio maakte. (1940)

For those of you that don't know. The Goldcrest is the smallest bird in the UK. Even smaller than the Wren. They're fairly difficult to photograph as they flit around a lot.

For today's dog walk I decided to go to the wind farm and get some misty photos of the wind turbines, you can usually see them from quite a distance away but it was so misty that I couldn't even see them when I was stood right next to them. I have two versions of this photo this one and one without the dog took me a while to decide which one to put on here.

CC Week 47 is Winter Hobbies & Pastimes
Rustic one bedroom in prime location with beautiful landscaping and amazing view. Perfect for empty-nesters!
to live content with small means
to seek elegance rather than luxury
and refinement rather than fashion
to be wealthy not rich
to listen to stars and birds
babes and sages with open heart
to study hard
to think quietly
act frankly
talk gently
await occasions, hurry never
in a word to let the spiritual unbidden
and unconscious
grow up through the common
this is my symphony
- william henry channing
I've been yearning for simple. I'm paying extra attention to the beauty in the every day. These flowers sit on my kitchen sink tonight. They're a gift from Ivy. The image is a gift for my Mama.

thankyou Heather for sharing the beautiful words.
Ricevere un testimonial da cris è un grande onore! E’ bravissima ed attivissima, se non ci credete andate a visitare il suo stream e curiosando non dimenticatevi di guardare con attenzione le foto della mostra che ha fatto recentemente (un esempio? eccolo) … strepitose sia nella realizzazione che nell’idea!
_________________________
A testimonial from cris is a big honor for me! She is very skilled and so active, if you don’t believe me please go and visit her stream and do not forget to give a look at her recent personal exhibition (a photography as an example? here) … great both in production and concept!
Explore!!!
I dedicate this flower to each and everyone of you for you support through last couple of years. I thank you for the wonderful comments, faves and invites. It is so very kind of each of you. You all are so very special to me. Much love and hugs coming your way. I hope you all have a super Tuesday!

I don't know if you heard, but, Madge, a lovely flickr member and wonderful photographer passed away this past December. I was heartbroken to hear the news. She was always a bright light in the flickr world and her zest for arranging, capturing and sharing the beautiful things in and around her home was always inspiring. She was a master of still life and delightful puns and I will miss her dearly. If you know Madge, I am sure you felt the same and, if you didn't, head on over to her stream now www.flickr.com/photos/mytimeflickrcom/ . it is pure delight.
Thank you so much Kimberly Chorney for my very first testimonial!
Everyday I look forward to seeing what is new on your photostream and you always inspire me with your creativeness! Here is a link to view her beautiful stream for those who have not seen her work yet=0) www.flickr.com/photos/39474827@N02/
Thanks again Kimberly for being such a great Flickr friend and for the testimonial, it means a great deal to me!!!! This photo was inspired by you!=0)
- what do you do for living ?
Within conversations i have with others; this, above all else, is one of the questions
i despise the most. Not that i would be ashamed to answer it, but it's just too much to ask. Regardless it's true purpose, regardless the great amount of contradictions, it involves. i don't like that... and yet, this could be an answer.
Thanks for all your views, *** and (critical) kind review :))

Barbara's wonderful group has been hibernating for a couple of weeks but she's invited me to take it on for a while. It is, in my opinion, the best, high quality colour group in FlickrLand so I'd better not screw it up :-) Excellent images with great use of colour and super composition - that's the aim.
The craving for colour is a natural necessity just as for water and fire. Colour is a raw material indispensable to life. At every era of his existence and his history, the human being has associated colour with his joys, his actions and his pleasures. (Frenand Leger)

UP 8854 is holding on the main at the west end of Rocky. Why is it holding on the main? Because it will be meeting an eastbound oil train that is currently above it, on the main at Eisele (Clay). Usually, the first train to arrive for a meet would take the siding, but in this case, the eastbound will hold the siding at Rocky for the westbound Zephyr. The flag on UP 8854 has definitely seen better days.

Taken a minute ago.
Nothing, just a fun shot... lol
It was a souvenir mug given by her.
Honestly, I don't like it because i don't like her !!!
Why I'm using it?
Well, I'm on diet and using it means losing my appetite.
I feel so bored and lazy right now.

One of several attempts shooting with a jeweller's eye-piece as a lens. I'm sure there were more productive ways of spending an afternoon but I was curious and got interested ... one for Dee.
I recently met, via Flickr, a wonderful woman from Australia that some of you already know. Her name is Bec :-) and yesterday she introduced an exceptional painting by her son, Micah. Micah is a six year old boy with profound autism. Micah's Masterpiece is indeed a masterpiece whether you regard the work as that from a boy with autism, from a six year old or simply from a human being.
Her post yesterday reminded me of a passage in a book I read recently titled The Reason I Jump by author Naoki Higashida. Naoki has high functioning autism. The book offers insight into a bewildering and perplexing condition. I have been waiting for the right moment to post this and Micah’s delightful work reminded me of Naoki’s exceptional work.
The following is an excerpt from his book:
Q45: Why do you enjoy going out for walks so much?
My guess is that lots of people with autism like walking, and I wonder if you can work out why. “Because walking makes you feel good?” “Because it’s great being out in the open air?” Both these replies are true, of course, but for me the number one reason is that us people with autism love the greenness of nature. Now you might be thinking, “Oh, is that all?” However, our fondness for nature is, I think, a little bit different from everyone else’s. I’m guessing that what touches you in nature is the beauty of the trees and the flowers and things. But to us people with special needs, nature is as important as our own lives. The reason is that when we look at nature, we receive a sort of permission to be alive in this world, and our entire bodies get recharged. However often we’re ignored and pushed away by other people, nature will always give us a good big hug, here inside our hearts.
The greenness of nature is the lives of plants and trees. Green is life. And that’s the reason we love to go out for walks.
Thanks for visiting! Most photos are of Mei, my wife and muse.
FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
My photos with more than 1000 Faves: 1000+ faves album
Sorry for low activity, but I had to go to the sea yesterday. It is so hot in my apartment. I do everything I can to keep the sun and hot air outside, but I have 29 c indoors!!!!!!! :( Outside it is still 30-33 C.
I got a good advice from one of my friends on Flickr to have wet clothes on my body, and plastic on the floor .
Oh what I laughed when I read these tips. I saw in front of me a crazy old lady, with wet dresses, dropping water and leaving a wet mark on the floors where ever she walked.
But I took it a bit easier, have damp, non-dripping towels over my feet when sitting at the computer and a similar towel around the shoulders. This keeps me pretty cool.
Have a nice Friday!!
