I've been feeling pretty quiet Flickr-wise for the past couple of months. Now that it's starting to warm up, and my garden is back in bloom, I may start popping in again.
A very pretty sky-blue flower, the True Forget-me-not (Myosotis scorpiodes) is a non-native Michigan wildflower. A small colony of these flowers were found in the marshy area beside Wildwing Lake at Kensington Metropark. They were very popular with many types of bees and flies.

Aquestes flors són conegudes amb aquest nom i s'associen amb l'amor vertader i que mai mor.
D'acord a una antiga llegenda un cavaller vestit en la seva armadura estava cavalcant a la riba d'un riu amb la seva promesa.
Ella va veure un grup de flors blaves bressolant-se en l'aigües, i va demanar al seu amant que les recollís. A l'intentar arribar a elles, el cavaller va resvalar i va caure al riu.
La pesada armadura va impedir que pogués nedar i va començar a enfonsar-se en l'aigua però abans va llançar les flors blaves a la seva estimada dient "No m'oblidis".
Regalar no m'oblidis és un símbol d'amor o amistat.

Estas flores son conocidas con ese nombre y se asocian con el amor veradadero y que nunca muere.
De acuerdo a una antigua leyenda un caballero vestido en su armadura estaba cabalgando a la orilla de un río con su prometida.
Ella vió un grupo de flores azules meciéndose en el aguas, y pidió a su amante que las recogiera. Al intentar llegar a ellas, el caballero se resvaló y cayó al río.
La pesada armadura impidió que pudiera nadar y comenzó a hundirse en el agua pero antes arrojó las flores azules a su amada diciendo "No me olvides".
Regalar no me olvides es un símbolo de amor o amistad.

Unbeknownst to many, Los Angeles has served as one of the most important oil provinces on the planet. From the initial discoveries near the turn of the 20th century, through the roaring 1920s, and into the present, oil has often guided and defined the development of the city. What's interesting, however, is that this fact is so often eclipsed by Los Angeles' well-documented histories as a center of film, entertainment, boosterism and agriculture. Forgetting Oildorado excavates the city's rich oil history, examines the slow decline of the local industry, and uncovers many of the active oil fields that lie hidden in plain sight, in the very midst of this teeming city.
This 120-page book includes text based upon Frank Ruchala Jr.'s monumental examination of Los Angeles' oil history, oiLA, with historical imagery sourced from Early California Oil by Kenny Franks and Paul Lambert. All other photography was shot by me, using a combination of Digital SLR, 35mm SLR, Medium Format Holga, and 35mm Lomo cameras.

Every morning as I cycle I think I am likely to overtaken by Dr. H a local brain surgeon, who despite being my age, can cycle faster than I can. I rarely see him but the fear of being overtaken encourages me not to hang around. Today, however, the sky looked like this so I stopped to take this photo.
I mixed up his personal and family names. He is Dr. H with a personal name beginning with Y.
I took this one a few years back. I thought it was appropriate to upload having just passed the 10 year anniversary of 9/11/01. Never forget.
Some one sent me the words.
Rest in peace my darling Carol till we meet again I will always love you xxxxxxxxxx
After walking in the 8th inning, Pham evidently forgot there was only 1 out, as he sprinted from 1st to 3rd on Carpenter's routine fly to left field. The inning ended with a 7-4-3 double play.
Growing amongst all the moss and weed in Juliet's front lawn, I found this lone Myosotis which had managed to avoid all the moss killer Juliet has been putting down in vain to keep the moss from strangulating the grass

One of my favourites out of all the colours! So here you go this is red from my eyes.
"Red is the color of blood, and as such has strong symbolism as life and vitality. It brings focus to the essence of life and living with emphasis on survival. Red is also the color of passion and lust."

From Milan Kundera's "The Book of Laughter and Forgetting" (1979):
In February 1948, the Communist leader Klement Gottwald stepped out on the balcony of a Baroque palace in Prague to harangue hundreds of thousands of citizens massed in Old Town Square. That was a great turning point in the history of Bohemia. A fateful moment.
Gottwald was flanked by his comrades, with Clementis standingn close to him. It was snowing and cold, and Gottwald was bareheaded. Bursting with solicitude, Clementis took off his fur hat and set it on Gottwald's head.
The propaganda section made hundreds of thousands of copies of the photograph taken on the balcony where Gottwald, in a fur hat and surrounded by his comrades, spoke to the people. On that balcony the history of Communist Bohemia began. Every child knew that photograph, from seeing it on posters and in schoolbooks and museums.
Four years later, Clementis was charged with treason and hanged. The propaganda section immediately made him vanish from history and, of course, from all photographs. Ever since, Gottwald has been alone on the balcony. Where Clementis stood, there is only the balcony. Where Clementis stood, there is only teh bare palace wall. Nothing remains of Clementis but theh fur hat on Gottwald's head.
Saturday morning, Apcar, his dad, and I headed "into town" for nine holes of golf at the St Maries municipal course. The amenities are a little rustic, but the course and the setting is unparalleled. Apcar considers it his favorite course, anywhere.
Incredible historical images are paired with a design strategy that's a bit messier and more collaged than elsewhere in the book, meant to mimic the messiness of oil.
